Get ready to meet one of the most interesting laptops released lately! With a display of just 11.6 inches, the Asus X202EDH21TCG can be easily mistaken with a tablet. After all, there are even bigger tablets, if we think again, like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, but wait until you see what makes this little guy so great!
Being so small, it doesn’t require that much power, so it’s equipped with a Intel Pentium CPU, clocked at 1.8 GHz, alongside 4 GB of DDR3 RAM memory, but this doesn’t mean that it’s not able to face multitasking…On the contrary! It’s blazing fast, so you can use it for some media consuming too, not just browsing the web. Speaking about media, it’s also loaded with a Intel GMA HD graphics card, delivering clear visuals and enabling you to connect it to a bigger display, through the HDMI port. As for the storage, it might be smaller than some tablets, but it has a 500 GB hard drive, definitely enough for your files. As far as we know, no tablets sport this much space.
There’s no optical drive, but take a look at this laptop… Yes, one would totally ruin its design, but we’ll get to this point a bit later. Still, it has a card reader, supporting SD, MMC and MS formats and three USB ports, so you can easily transfer files to different supports.
The Asus X202EDH21TCG has a 11.6″ HD touch-screen display, with a resolution of 1366 x 768, surrounded by a black glossy finish, delivering some vivid images. Also, it is very easy to use and makes navigation through Window 8.1 very simple.
Of course, a built-in high-definition camera is also present, so, due to its compact size, the Asus X202EDH21TCG can be the perfect companion if you’re traveling and in need of a device that can keep you connected with everybody, without occupying too much space.
To be more specific, it has a total width of just 11.9 inches and a thickness of – wait for it – 0.8 inches, being slimmer than some tablets. Also, it weighs just three lbs, so carrying it around in a backpack, with the rest of your stuff, will be perfect. If you ask us, the Asus X202EDH21TCG is a perfect laptop for students, fitting perfectly alongside their textbooks and notebooks.
The 2-cell lithium-ion polymer battery should offer a decent amount of battery life, while the SonicMaster audio technology makes sure that you can enjoy your favorite tunes at a high-quality.
And to end the review, if you’re fancying the idea of a 11.6″ compact laptop with a touch-screen and a really cool finish silver, you can have the Asus X202EDH21TCG for just $329.99. If you ask us, this is a really good price, considering the specs. Still, a removable keyboard would’ve been even better, but hey, you can’t have them all.
