Sarah Tew/CNETThe keyboard feels more cramped than some other small-screen hybrids, because this is a 10.1-inch system, while most of the competition is using 11.6-inch displays. The 64GB version is listed on Acer's website for $429, but I've seen it, and the 32GB version on sale at $400/$350 respectively.Īt $400 for the 64GB version, I'm willing to consider the performance tradeoffs demanded of the Switch 10 and its Atom processor versus the slightly zipper (and more expensive) Yoga 2 11 and HP Pavilion x360 hybrids, in return for what I consider a more functional hybrid design, which kept me coming back to the Switch 10 day after day, even with more powerful hardware at hand. For the base price of $380 (also available for about £300), however, you only get a 32GB SSD, and once you account for the actual footprint of Windows 8, that doesn't leave much room for anything else. In this case, that's an Intel Atom CPU, 2GB of RAM, and up to a 64GB SSD for storage. It's essentially the same two-pronged connector found on many detachable hybrids, but instead of snapping together with a physical switch, powerful magnets pull the two halves together and keep them attached, a connection that held even when I picked up the system by the screen and shook it.īeing a smaller hybrid, the Switch 10 has similar components to what we've seen in recent 8-inch and 10-inch Windows 8 tablets. Sarah Tew/CNETThe 10.1-inch screen attaches via something Acer calls the Snap Hinge.
