ASUS Vivo Note 8 Review

Thursday 13 February 2014

Something new has come up at the Microsoft Store, and it might catch the interest of people who are in the market for a new tablet. The ASUS VivoTab Note 8, which have been talked about with interest, is now available in the Microsoft Store.
The ASUS VivoTab Note 8 runs on Windows 8.1, and the product description says that the tablet will bring the operating system to life. Big promise?
With a tag price of $329, what’s to convince consumers to buy the ASUS VivoTab Note 8?
Here are a few things that might work for you.
  • All day battery life; technically 8 hours, really. Of course, there is the small print: “Battery life varies by configuration, operating conditions, and other factors. Maximum battery capacity decreases with time and use.
  • Wacom Digital Stylus. For people who regularly use stylii, this is a huge plus – we know Wacom is pretty much the best out there.
  • Microsoft Office. Microsoft Office Home and Student are preloaded on the tablet, making for some significant savings ($139).
Other important specs:
  • Display: 8.0 in IPS LED-backlit WXGA touchscreen (800 x 1280), 5-finger multi-touch support
  • Processor: Intel Atom Z3740 1.33 GHz with Turbo Boost Technology up to 1.86 GHz
  • Memory: 2GB 1600 MHz LPDDR3
  • Storage: 32GB eMMC/Micro SD card slot (SD/SDHC/SDXC)
  • Ports: Micro USB 2.0; Headphone output/Microphone input combo
  • Camera: 5 MP rear, 1.2 MP front
  • Connectivity: 802.11a/b/g/n (Miracast enabled); Bluetooth
  • Dimensions: 8.70 x 5.20 x 0.40 in (220.98 x 132.08 x 10.16 mm)
  • Weight: 0.85 lbs (0.38 kg)
ASUS VivoTab Note 8 Now Available From Microsoft StoreAnd, just like other Microsoft tablets, you can opt for Microsoft Complete for an extended warranty for two years.
Compared to other tablets in the same range – especially with how Microsoft has slashed prices on select tablets, the price of the ASUS VivoTab Note 8 is a little steep, but if you absolutely rely on Microsoft Office, this offer might actually be a good one.
There’s the good news, but here’s some bad news if you’re impatient: from the looks of it, the offer has attracted a lot of attention, and as of this writing, the Store is currently out of stock!
