Flip for computing freedom

ASUS Transformer Book Flip features a bright and clear up to Full HD 1920 x 1080 touchscreen with a cleverly-engineered hinge that allows the user to rotate it freely up to 360 degrees from the fully-closed position. Four gears in the hinge provide a smooth, stepless movement, ensuring that the screen stays exactly where the user wants it while making it effortless to adjust.

From standard laptop mode, its easy to flip the screen instantly to suit whatever task the user wants to perform whether its a media stand for watching a movie or viewing photos, a shared viewer for easy collaboration with friends, family or colleagues, or a tablet for playing the latest games. An automatic keyboard and touchpad lock is activated whenever Flip is used in non-laptop modes, so users wont have problems with unwanted input.
Flips touchscreen is incredibly accurate and responsive thanks to its high-precision 6mm-diameter actuators, which are more than twice as sensitive as the 9mm industry standard. Exclusive ASUS Splendid technology gives rich, deep and vibrant colors to ensure a visually stunning experience for any kind of content.

Stylish, powerful, and with incredible sound

Flip is full of clever ASUS engineering, but its also designed to be smart and stylish, with a hairline-textured finish for a touch of luxury. The compact aluminum chassis gives Flip strength, durability and elegance. The seamless one-piece chiclet keyboard is ergonomically designed for optimum typing feel, and the large multi-touch touchpad supports Smart Gestures for precise and natural fingertip control.

Flips incredible design is complemented by superior performance. It uses powerful, energy-efficient Intel Core up to i7 processors for superior multitasking and effortless productivity, while the up to NVIDIA GeForce GT840M discrete graphics with 2GB of video memory give Flip more than enough graphics power for smooth video playback or playing the latest games.

Instant On technology means that Flip only takes two seconds to resume from sleep, and users dont need to worry about losing data when in sleep mode for up to 14 days when the Lithium-polymer batterys charge drops below 5%, files and data are automatically backed up.

Exclusive ASUS SonicMaster audio gives Flip the best audio experience in its class. With larger speakers and resonance chambers than standard laptops, the audio quality is spectacular.
