That being said, I am extremely pleased with this purchase. I lucked out and purchased a warehouse deal on the product that was only damaged packaging (no harm to the unit, I don't know that the unit had even been turned on). I likely would not have taken the risk to buy a warehouse product, but I was reassured by Amazon's return policy within 30 days on the product. This resulted in a hefty discount on a seemingly unused product, but even at the new price point of $380, I would be just as impressed with this product.
I do have the T103 version, which is the most recent version of this product (no fingerprint scanner and an updated processor are the two main points upgrades I believe). Without the fingerprint scanner for login, Windows 10 does offer Bluetooth connectivity to a phone that will essentially lock/unlock the computer depending on if the phone is within range of the device, but I do not use this functionality- an old-fashioned password works reliably in my opinion.
I immediately uninstalled any pre-loaded programs I knew I would never use. I also downloaded a paid Internet Security software I use on all of my devices- in my opinion, this is one of the best things you can do to protect your device from potential viruses and make it last. Having to deal with the notorious "Blue Screen" is never convenient. I also installed a full version of Microsoft Office and uninstalled the Mobile version that was included on the device. Once my device was set the way I wanted it, I created a system backup in case anything were to ever crash the system.
Within two days of using, Windows 10 updated to its latest version, which took 2-3 hours overnight. With the update the device itself began running more smoothly, so I would recommend allowing the device to upgrade.
I use an external micro-SD card to store all of my files and music, which keeps the eMMC storage open and essentially just run the OS and programs off of the internal storage. With this strategy, my device has ran smooth and starts up in under 30 minutes. Now, is this the fastest device ever? No, but I did not expect it to be either. However, with only 3-4 internet tabs open, Spotify, and one Office application open, there is no lag. The device can also stream videos without issue, and I have watched some sports and Hulu without lag. The HDMI connectivity is also convenient, albeit you have to purchase a $8-$10 cord to utilize it. I have done some basic spreadsheet editing without issue, but if I were to try and run multiple spreadsheets at once I would likely use another device with better multitasking capability.
The keyboard and stylus being included with the device is a major plus. Being able to write notes or even just scroll with the stylus is a great addition. The keyboard is a little flimsy on its own, but I anticipate as long as I don't intentionally bend it I don't have to worry about it breaking. With it attached to the device it works great, and typing is seamless even with larger fingers. One thing to note is if you are typing a longer document, you may occasionally hit the touchpad, but you are able to turn the touchpad off in this instance using the "fn" and "f9" keys.
The touchscreen works without issue for me. Zooming, scrolling, and opening programs all function great, and the screen is very responsive.
The battery life is also impressive. I have yet to run the device dead, and my usage will vary on a daily basis from 1-7 hours, sometimes just streaming music and others times multitasking. I have stopped charging the device at the end of every single day and only charge once every 1-3 days, as it is not necessary to charge with my usage usually. I anticipate I could easily get 10-12 hours if not more out of the battery depending on what I was doing and the battery settings I use.
The weight of the device is one of my favorite aspects. It is extremely lightweight, and carrying in a backpack or bag adds practically no weight at all.
For charging, my biggest worry for the device was that the micro-USB port pins would wear out before anything else did and I would be unable to charge the device. To *hopefully* prevent this, I did purchase a micro-USB cord that offered magnetic connection to a more permanent plug in the micro-USB slot, so I would not be plugging/unplugging a cord from the port every time I charged it. This has worked well so far, as I use the cord with the provided wall charging block and the devices charges without issue.
I did get a screen protector and generic soft-sided carrying case just to offer physical protection. The metal casing to the device seems durable. However, I anticipate that if anything ever needed replacing it may cost more than it is worth, so better to protect with $20 worth of casing/screen protectors than face the potential hassle.
All in all, I am very pleased with the device's functionality and portability for the price. It met all of my criteria and then some.
It really does appear to be an internal antenna deficiency. Some reported success with putting the device close to the router (not always convenient), with using a USB wifi dongle rather than the internal wifi (uses your only USB port), using your cell phone as a wifi booster.
There is a driver from late in 2015 that does seem to help. Oddly enough, however, it is an OLD Windows 8.1 driver for the wifi adapter. If you wish to pursue this, you should create a system backup, and carefully check the driver download for any viruses or malware. Search Atheros Wireless LAN driver 11.0.0.601. If you combine this in a search for the ASUS T101 or T102, you can find message board threads in which this fix is discussed and one even has a link to a Lenovo page where you can get the driver (I know, pretty risky stuff, here -- old driver, different manufacturer site). All I can say is that I did manage to get the old driver installed (it wasn't easy -- Windows did NOT want that old driver on this machine!) and it does seem to have made a significant improvement in performance.
This will not fix the wonky touchpad or the tiny keys, but it at least makes the machine usable.
I've had my transformer for a while, now.
Pros -- it is small and pretty portable. Battery life is EXCELLENT. I haven't had app or operating system issues.
Cons -- the track pad is just wacky. I don't like track pads, anyway, so disabled it and put in a USB mouse, although that gets clunky when I need to use the single USB port for something else (there is a setting to only disable the trackpad if a mouse is detected). My biggest issue, however, is that the wifi just doesn't work very well. I can be somewhere that my phone, my kindle, my laptop all report a strong wifi signal, and this device seems barely able to connect and stay connected. When it has a good connection, things are snappy and responsive, but I've only found one site where that is the case. Very disappointing.
Top reviews from other countries
The main problem is the software. Right out of the gate, it became immediately apparent to me that it was not powerful enough to be running Windows 10, which is what it ships with.
I wiped the eMMC drive and replaced it with Linux and have been happily running it for over a year. At first it was painful to get up and running because the Linux kernel didn't yet have support for its sound card, so I had to find a patch and recompile the kernel to get sound working. However, it was incorporated into Linux kernel 5.3, so as long as you're using a distribution that ships with a kernel of that version or higher and has the driver included, the system should work.
I also tried running Android x86 on it, again, just over a year ago, which ran swimmingly but had no sound support (see above). But of course, plopping Android on this thing somewhat defeats the purpose of purchasing an Intel x86-based 2in1.
As well, after getting this thing set up, I did some research on the Intel CherryTrail system-on-a-chip (SOC) that powers these guys under the hood. It turns out that just before these guys shipped, Intel decided to discontinue their whole Atom line of processors, including the CherryTrail. So in a way, these systems were DOA and there will not be a direct upgrade path. I'm guessing ASUS probably was able to make a deal with Intel to scoop up a large number of the chips that Intel was likely unloading at a very low wholesale price-point.
After all I've said above, you'd think I would think this machine is a piece of junk. Not so. I love it.
I can run MS Office 2010 using WINE. It works extremely fast and does everything I need. Chromium works fine as a browser in touch-screen mode. As the device is a bit underpowered, it doesn't work great on heavy sites such as Facebook or Slack. But thankfully, these sites just take longer to load than I'd like, but once they've loaded in all of their Javascript-heavy glory, they work quite well. YouTube works well enough.
I love the keyboard, unlike many people here. It feels great to me, and not flimsy at all. The trackpad is a bit jumpy, but seeing as you can use the touchscreen as a mouse and turn off tap-to-click, this is not a big problem.
The picture on this device is beautiful. It seriously looks really sharp and crisp. I remain impressed by it to this day.
The battery life is phenomenal. I can stretch it to 2 days on a single charge.
People that would see me using the device at work would turn heads and say "what is that?" After I would show off its features, everyone wanted it. Even iPad users that spent thousands of dollars on their beautiful device from Apple said that my device looked preferable to them, because they could use a full desktop version of MS Office on it, unlike the crippled Office that ships for IOS.
So what was the point of writing this review, seeing as the machine doesn't seem to be readily available anymore? I don't know. I just know I've really loved this thing and wanted to give a different perspective on some of the negative reviews. If only ASUS has understood that this device doesn't *want* to run Windows 10, it could have been a great or at least moderate success. They got the hardware right, just not the software.
