The Asus Transformer Book Flip can be used as a Windows 8.1 laptop and flipped into a large-screen Windows tablet whenever such a mode is more convenient to the user. The machine packs a 15.6-inch LED touchscreen display with 1366 x 768 resolution, 1.90 GHz Intel Core i3-4030U processor, 4GB of RAM, 500GB of storage and up to 5 hours of battery life.

In addition to running Microsoft’s latest computer operating system, the device is also part of the company’s Signature edition of tablets and laptops, which means they come without any bloatware preinstalled, or “Junkware or 3rd party trialware,” as Microsoft puts it.
