Sony Vaio Tap SVJ2021E9E

Zitat: Pros: + Built-in battery + Large screen (for a tablet) + Versatile design Cons: - Heavy, cumbersome - Low screen resolution - Bundled keyboard and mouse aren’t great Sony’s VAIO Tap 20 wants to bridge the gap between your study desk and your couch. With its internal battery it’s good for around 90 minutes of Web browsing or video watching -- not a huge amount, but better than nothing. It’s got Ultrabook-class specs, so it’s more than capable of light-duty everyday tasks. It’s very big and heavy for a touchscreen, tablet-esque device though, and the bundled accessories aren’t very good.

Zitat: The Good: + Clever adjustable stand + screen looks good throughout various viewing angles + responsive to touch + battery could save from power outages + interesting new category The Bad: - Not a Full HD screen - it´s heavy - battery won´t last out that long - not powerful enough to be considered a pro desktop - should be slimmer "Interesting" is the word that springs to mind, but the Tap 20 fails to cohesively gel and feel like a fully successful product. It´s fine enough as a standalone desktop, and while it does function as a tablet, it´s the sheer scale, weight and limited battery life that are too much of a negative for its latter formation. That said, it does have some merit - we´re intruiged by the Tap 20, for sure, but its quirks have limited application.

Zitat: Sony succesfully splices tablet and all-in-one DNA to create this ingenious hybrid

Zitat: Was uns gefällt: + vollwertiger All-in-One-PC mit 20-Zoll-Touchscreen + dank Akku mobil nutzbar + völlig neue PC-Klasse mit großartigem Potenzial Was uns nicht gefällt: - teils frustrierende Drag-Effekte bei der Touchscreen-Nutzung - kleine Fehltritte bei den insgesamt sicher vernünftigen Opfern zugunsten der Mobilität und des Preises Sonys Vaio Tap 20 ist ein überzeugendes Experiment in Sachen Tablet-Desktop-Hybridisierung und eine sehr gute Wahl für Technik-Enthusiasten, die eine völlig neue Geräteklasse ausprobieren wollen.

Zitat: The Tap 20 is an unusual product. It´s relatively underpowered as a desktop system, but its strong suit is as a shared family PC, with the ability to be moved easily around the home. And its potential as a shared gaming device is impressive. Unfortunately, it isn´t as strong on the productivity side, and the lack of MPEG-2 playback--more a Windows 8 problem than Sony´s--makes it an imperfect entertainment system. In many ways, the Tap 20 showcases both the good and the bad of Windows 8. Its seamless integration with the Windows 8 user interface shows off Microsoft´s new operating system at its best, but the lack of capabilities that users have come to expect, such as MPEG-2 playback, is oddly jarring. When you use this machine with Windows 8 native apps, it excels, but the uninspired keyboard and mouse make desktop use more of a chore than it needs to be. The Tap 20 is undeniably cool, but some of the details need to be fleshed out. Still, at about £1,000 it´s not all that expensive, particularly if you consider that it´s both a small all-in-one and a really big tablet.
