Well after watching a lot of review online about different 2in1 I decided to go with this one du to the fact it has a dedicated graphic card (from time to time i do video editing). First impression was great. Packaging ,design,a sleeve included, well a good start :) I boot the computer and damn it was fast ! 5 second and I was into windows 10. But as soon as I was on the desktop began windows update...Well sounds familiar,no ? Using this 2in1 everyday I have mixfeeling about it For sure its fast and powerful and the sound quality is good , the keyboard and screen are great, battery life so far is good (around 7 hours with light web browsing and watching some videos with brightness set to medium), but we paid for this, no ? Where I am not so happy is with the comfort about using it. First I dont know why but on my screenshots folder I got pics about my welcome screen mix with my desktop that are taken without me doing anything. Why this is happening is beyond my understanding...I got the feeling is when I close the lid or open it but why its taking a pic its a fact I dont understand and like. Second well the trackpad from time to time is not responding in the way Im expecting, a bit off I would say. Was much happier with my old one. About pluging an earphones from time to time its not working.Its like noting was plug in and well its something very annoying....In that case I have to restart the computer of course...The sound also from time to time is cracking when I watch some video and also after a restart its fine. So there should be a problem (hardware, software,both ?) but its simply really annoying. And also flipping the screen is a not a great experience. I had issues swapping from one mode to the other, with the mouse and keyboard that went on when I was reading in tablet mode...Also the virtual Keyboard well sometimes doesnt show up when I need...And sometimes the screen has problem to just adjust in the right position becoming a bit crazy sometimes...Well I made a comparison with a friend of mine that as a cheap teclast 5 (300 dollars)and gosh its much more friendly to use without these annoying bugs I experienced with my 1300 dollars Asus...He was also shocked about how my computer was reacting...He was maybe thinking its a defective product or some incompatibility with windows and their legendaries updates.....And a little thing is the micro sd slot let a very small part of the micro sd going out means if you put your 2in1 on the side it will disconnect the micro sd....Plus I have to buy 2 thing grip sticks to avoid the asus to slide on a flat surface because well its slippery....On the 300 teclast well the micro sd it fit completely inside and its stable.You expect these small nice features to be included in a more expensive laptop than in a 300 bucks 2in1...Well...So to conclude Its a powerful medium sized 2in1 that is unfortunately not a pleasure of using it everyday because of these annoying small issues I mentioned...Its like buying a nice car with plenty of nice option that are not working well, frustrating....Even with all these issue I like my asus and I would love it without all these smalls annoying issues....
