The Asus Taichi 21 offers a clever implementation of a dualscreen design in a slim Core i7 chassis.
Only one of the screens is touchenabled, which feels like a major oversight. There are probably only a handful of situations where you'd need an outwardfacing display
More of a clever proof-of-concept than a practical product, the Asus Taichi still delivers on its basic promise, combining two displays for a unique take on the laptop/tablet/hybrid genre....
Dual 1080p screens, Bang & Olufsen audio, Comfortable, backlit keyboard, 256GB SSD, Windows 8
Average battery life, Only 4GB RAM, Dim screen, Huge price tag
Asus has elevated itself to such a position that we are genuinely excited whenever a new product appears in its lineup. In the case of the Asus Taichi, our excitement is completely justified. It's a completely different approach that, if not for Windows 8...

Both screens are full HD and IPS. Backlit keyboard is decent. Affordable price for the hardware involved
Poor battery life. Interior screen isn't touch, which can lead to some frustrating moments
The Taichi is an experiment. While some may find a use for its dual screens, and it's built well enough, the lack of a touchscreen on the interior and troubling battery life could put even those people off....
The ASUS Taichi is an innovative device that can be used either as a laptop or as a tablet. It has two screens, both of which are Full HD and based on IPS technology, and it will be available in Intel Core i5 or Core i7 configurations...
Abstract: Lisa Gade compares the Asus Taichi 21 and the Sony VAIO Duo 11 Windows 8 convertible tablets – Ultrabooks. They're similarly priced and have 11.6″ full HD 1080P IPS Gorilla Glass displays, Intel Core i5 and i7 ULV CPU options, fast SSD drives and backlit ...
Good idea, bad implementation Asus touts the Taichi 21 as the world's first dual-screen laptop/tablet hybrid. While that is very true, no one was asking for it. It would be one thing if the Taichi 21 revolutionized the tech world, but that just isn'...
