TechMonkey Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Looking to equip some management with 2-in-1 devices, either the fully articulated hinge type or the pull off keyboard jobbies. Any recommendations? What are others getting? My head cannot get itself around the options, especially as Celerons seem to still be around as well as Pentium, Atom and the full range of Pentium i processors! They do not need to be powerhouses but I would like them to be respectable. Preferably with pen, good battery life, preferably with network port but that isn't mandatory. Would love to get Surfaces for all but cost and other niggles with a batch of Surface 3s prevents us. Many thanks
p858snake Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Not commenting on the costs of surfaces, but as for niggles, example I work in a office with about 30 something Surface 4 devices, no major issues, But make sure firmware is kept up to date for the docking stations.
Domino Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 We're about to trial some HP Elitebook 360s : HP EliteBook x360 | HP® Official Site We've a couple of surfacebooks and they're...alright I guess? One thing is the USB connections all hang off a hub in the keyboard bit, so some legacy USB devices don't like that.
Robertmap Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 You have better choices. For example, you can choose Skylake Core M or Kaby Lake Core Y processor. Its performance is better than that of Pentium and Atom. this list have a lot of 2-in-1 laptop, please check https://www.laptopmain.com/fanless-laptops/
Rob_D Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 I always liked the Asus Transformer series (although I've only ever used the early ones). https://www.asus.com/uk/2-in-1-PCs/ASUS-Transformer-Mini-T102HA/
Fazza Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 I like the Acer Spin series of devices. I've got a Spin B1 Celeron one that is purely used for going around and keeping auditing and PAT testing records which is just via a URL so it's really good at that but I think it would be a bit slow if I put Office on it. The faster (proper) processor ones (Acer Spin 3 or 5) are pretty much the same as the B1 but have proper i3 or i5 CPUs with varying screen sizes depending on which model you choose.
