Asus Transformer Book V Hands On and Photo Gallery


At the Computex 2014 event in Taipei, Asus announced a five in one convertible that tries to bring together a Windows tablet, a Windows Laptop, an Android laptop, an Android tablet and an Android smartphone into a single device. We have seen Windows convertibles, Android convertibles and Windows/Android dual boot Transformers until now, but by bringing the concept of a Padfone into the Windows/Android dual boot system, Asus is a taking a completely new direction.
