Asus Transformer Book Trio announced, runs Windows and Android


The Asus Transformer Book Trio was announced today at Computex 2013 and it looks like we have an interesting All-in-One in our hands. This device morphs between a tablet, notebook and a workstation and runs both Windows 8 and Android Jelly Bean.

In tablet mode the device is powered by a 2GHz Intel Atom Z2580 processor, which is more than capable of taking on most basic day to day tasks. You can enjoy the content on the tablets 11.6 inch IPS-LCD touch display which has a 1920 by 1080 pixel resolution. There is 64GB of storage for your files and a 19Wh battery to power the device while you are mobile.

When the device is docked it gets an additional 33Wh battery which boasts up to 15 hours of battery life. You also get 750GB of additional storage and an Intel Core i7 CPU to power Windows 8 mode. The added storage and powerful processor makes the tablet ideal for more resource intensive tasks.



Asus claims that "the Transformer Book Trio has been designed to smoothly transition between modes, allowing users to sync data or continue to surf the webpage they're on even when moving from notebook to tablet mode." This is interesting considering you are switching between Android and Windows and this is not any form of emulation.

Asus hasn't revealed how much this device will cost, but we can imagine it will be somewhat on the higher range considering its hardware. We will have to wait to find out in any case when the device hits shelves in Q3 later this year.
