Define tablet features - are you talking about a touchscreen, lightweight with portability?

Laptop with tablet features? So she wants a laptop with a touch screen and windows 8 for "gestures"? Or are there more specific features she wants?

The 1st and second one i.e IdeaPad Yoga 11S (Touch) - 59370508 - Silver Gray. Please share ur review on this and suggest some more like this


I don't really know what exact features she wants but that one has touch, windows 8 for gesture stuff, an ultra book so its light, ssd so cold boots shouldn't be long.

Can't really think of anything else that would be tablet like.

Well the surface and ipad are tablets.

Pro is around 1 grand, rt is at ~500. Other than that I don't know much about tablets, they aren't my market at all. (never saw a use for one or could afford to spend money on that kind of toy)

She is a prime candidate for the Surface Pro - full Win8 w/ touchscreen. If not the Surface Pro, I would browse the leading ultrabooks and see what your budget can handle. The ASUS' Zenbook touch (UX31A) would be a really good option as well - they have a new version that will be releasing soon that is thinner and uses a Haswell processor but I am not sure when the release date will be. If you don't need to pull the trigger soon, that is what I would buy. The Lenovo Yoga 11 would be a good option as well - hinge pivots from laptop to tablet mode and is a fairly reliable option. Dell is also building an 11" XPS model that will be a direct competitor with the Yoga.

okies thank you all. She seems satisfied and didn't asked for anything more after I recommended her Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 11s. So that should be it. Thank you mouse24 and 'game junky'.
