Review on πŸ’» iProda 2 in 1 Laptop: Windows 10 Pro Touchscreen Convertible, Ultra Thin & Light with Metal Shell - 11.6" 1080P Laptop for Students & Businesses by Dre Bhatt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Compact, solid and well made, slow

Love the form factor of this. You get a good Full HD touchscreen in a super-compact 12-inch convertible, and it's not made out of ugly plastic, it's all aluminum, and it's nice and solid to wear. The keyboard is solid and comfortable to type on. Trackpad Unfortunately it's awful and poorly tracked, good thing it has a touchscreen, two-finger scrolling is terribly unreliable. The thinness leaves only a few connections: a headphone jack on the left, USB-C, Micro-HDMI, Micro-USB-OTG and MicroSD on the right. There is also a small door on the bottom where you can install an M.2 SSD. A USB-C charger is included, you can of course use the Power Delivery bandwidth charging dock to add Ethernet, USB-A, HDMI and SD ports, Revain sells them in abundance. So what's not to like? First, the metal strip taped under the screen began to peel off and warp on the first day after just an hour of use. I ended up having to glue it back in place. This is simply unacceptable. ish - thanks to the outdated budget N4100 Celeron. It's worth paying a little more for a better processor. I like using it as a tablet, but somehow I always manage to press SOMETHING (and I have no idea what it is, when it touches the screen a certain way by pressing a button.) which causes it to fall asleep immediately . Kind of a failure as a tablet - but then again, Windows in tablet mode is a lousy failure anyway. Finally. I have mixed feelings about this affordable convertible laptop. While I love the beautiful finish, ultra-compact size, and full 360 hinge, the pull-tab, unwanted dreams, and sluggish performance aren't great. If you're willing to put up with that, this is a really nice little laptop for the price.

Pros
  • Not just useful for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Not as good as it promises
