The editors liked
Solid aluminum build
Stunningly light and thin

The editors didn't like
Clunky magnetic docking procedure
All mini ports
Performance and battery life is still not on par with what other slim hybrids and laptops deliver. Some design quirks
Such as a poorly placed power button
Can get in the way
Micro ports mean dongles for everything
Can't charge tablet via USB
Bluetooth keyboard needs to be charged separately
Short depth on trackpad
AC adapter's barrel connector fits in headset jack
Very thin for a 12.5-inch Windows tablet, Excellent magnetic hinge, Premium look and feel, Comfortable keyboard, Perky performance, Reasonable price
Disappointing battery life, A little heavy for an ultrabook, Big and awkward as a tablet
Asus' impressively thin 2-in-1 looks and feels great and starts at just $699 (with an upscale model at $899). But battery life is short for a Core M device, and the 12.5-inch screen makes a slightly unwieldy tablet. Read More…...

It's really thin, Solid build quality, Fast performance
Below average battery life, Trackpad is too small, Connecting anything requires an adapter, Keyboard hinge doesn't rotate far enough

Lightweight and very thin, Attractive and well-made tablet, Respectable CPU performance, Beautiful WQHD resolution display with wide gamut, Bright backlight, Low latency, responsive hardware, USB 3.0, MicroSD reader, and HDMI-out, Fanless design
Wobbly magnet hinges, Keyboard dock provides no additional features or ports, Keyboard keys have shallow travel, Reduced performance on batteries, Unable to maintain full Turbo Boost under constant stress, Display could benefit from calibration, Right sid
Asus Transformer Book T300 Chi For browsing, word processing, and multimedia, the T300 Chi works wonderfully as it is responsive and more than capable for common everyday tasks. Users will be impressed by the slim design, enormous amount of RAM for a tab...
The Asus Transformer Book T300 Chi makes good use of Intel's low-power Core M processor, and includes a keyboard dock that works attached or remotely. The screen has a better-than-HD resolution
Performance and battery life is still not on par with what other slim hybrids and laptops deliver. Some design quirks, such as a poorly placed power button, can get in the way
This good-looking fanless hybrid works as a slim Windows tablet or an ultra-portable laptop, but still suffers from the same awkward marriage of base and screen as many hybrids....
Abstract: The ASUS Transformer Book T300 measures 31x19x1cm, the last figure varies from .8cm at the front edge to 1.4cm at the back edge. It weights 1425grams all these figures assume you use the unit as a note book . It can also be used as a tablet without the ke...
Thin and light, good performance for the price, large and colourful display, Windows 10-ready
Short battery life, limited storage, no full-sized USB port
Asus has created another quality convertible by pairing a big, bold 12.5in display with an ultra-thin chassis. A lack of ports and useful software hamper its business credentials, as does the underwhelming battery life, but the Transformer Book Chi T300 o...

Solid keyboard, high-resolution screen, expensive-feeling metal design
Small trackpad, disappointing battery life, compromised connectivity
The Asus Transformer Book Chi T300 has a split personality: it's full of great features, but some of its performance isn't quite as hot as we would expect. That results in this hybrid feeling like a bit of an awkward fit. Battery life isn't as good...
beautiful, light and extremely well built, good touchscreen, great keyboard for such a thin device, surprisingly fast, fanless experience, proper price
subpar battery life, runs warm, not the best speakers or trackpad, somewhat slow WiFi, limited IO
Asus's CHI T300 is a device that will turn heads, grace to its looks and svelte silhouette. It's not just a looker though, is also surprisingly fast in everyday use for a fanless Core M powered machine, packs a good display and is bundled with one of the...
Slim and light, Sharp 1440p panel, Core M is silent and performs very well, Fast M.2 SSD, Sturdy and attractive aluminium build, Added functionality of a 2in1
No fullsized connectivity ports, Core M can get warm in tablet mode.
Overall, then, I think it is fair to say the Asus Transformer Book T300 Chi is a great hybrid laptop. While I was disappointed with the lack of power the T100 Chi presented users, the T300 Chi has 8GB of RAM, an integrated 128GB SSD and the all-new Core M...
