Looks pretty clunky, especially when compared to today's slim ultrabooks.


how is it clunky?


It looks tremendously thick compared to the Sandy Bridge architecture in ultrabooks. Take the Samsung Series 9 for example...

wat. How does it look thick? 


Don't even bother, the Tablet Z is the thinnest 10" tablet, the guy obviously has an agenda as has is recent posts has shown, or he just has bad eyes.

Source?

By the way, there are ultrabooks thinner than this


It comes straight from the horse's mouth. Which ultrabook is thinner?

I already gave the Series 9 as an example, but I wouldn't be suprised if reports come back that Surface is thinner, since it seemed like the only tablet on the market who even came close to the Series 9 in terms of sleekness.


Samsung Series 9

12.3" (W) x 8.6" (H) x 0.50" (D)

Xperia Tablet Z:
10.47 x 6.77 x 0.27 inches
Please stop spreading bullshit misinformation.


How thick is the keyboard attachment? You're only using the screen dimensions.

To top this off, the Tablet Z uses a low performance ARM, which is nowhere near the same league as the Core i7 Sandy Bridge.


Okay, so you say we should compare ultrabooks to tablets, then say we shouldn't compare them with tablets? 

make up your mind already. 

Series 9 doesn't even have that good of a CPU ,  my laptop which is from 2011 has a i7 2.20 > 3.30 GHz  , and its not even a high end PC, and it is 2k cheaper than the "Premium" Series 9 Samsung

It also supports full HD resolution which is by today should be a standard, while the series 9 sports a 1600 x 900 

I could go on and on , but in short, that laptop is overpriced, but Samsung knows whos buying and people who buy it are the Galaxy fans with no computer knowledge, they are acting like Apple.

You can compare them if you like, but you'll either have to discount the keyboard size for the Series 9 or add the keyboard size for the Tablet Z.

Series 9 Has a very decent CPU for its size. Of course it doesn't rival desktops and the like, that's just ridiculous, but compared to the ARM range, it's a completely different league altogether. By the way, my premium Series 9 costed $1300, so unless you got paid $700 for your computer upgrade, I'm not buying it.

The screen is really the only thing that can be criticised, and it was a matter of tossing up between the 1080 screen on the ASUS Zenbook, or the size/power factor of the Series 9.

Of course, this is an old ultrabook now, at least 6 months old, so there's probably even better around in the merket.

 

Me :  "  my laptop which is from 2011" 

You : " Of course, this is an old ultrabook now, at least 6 months old," 

You : "Series 9 Has a very decent CPU for its size" 

Me : "My laptop from 2011, and has a better CPU,  , the one on the S9 is very close to a smartphone one"
now I have no idea what you are getting at, at this point.
also , You bought yours for less than 1 K ? was it a discount? , because the ones that are less than 2k are not "Premium" models, and my phone has a better CPU than those crappy things.
by the way the Zenbook is a lot more powerful than the Series 9 , so i think you picked the wrong one for just a couple of milimeters thiner.
