That CPU is terrible for any real CPU-heavy work, but the price and performance and capability is great. I’d be tempted to get one myself!
I think the CPU was dictated by targeting battery life.
I'm an idiot in regards to CPU and GPU what does that mean in real terms? The rest is good for a laptop (the prices in my head aren't up to date)
I'm thinking about a microsoft surface for comparison 😀
Basically it means what you can expect the laptop to do.
This tablet is decent for basic web usage, office apps, general use (music/videos etc).
It’s not good for games, dev projects (think big apps), photo editing, video editing, and anything I forgot to list that’s “heavy usage.”
If you don’t need the latter, it’s just fine.
Think "lightweight convertible laptop" rather than "tablet with a keyboard". It's an Intel processor but it's on the efficient side. It will run those desktop apps but don't expect a lot of performance.
Why not use a laptop if you'redoing CPU heavy work? Not really the usecase for a tablet IMO, more for maximum portability over raw power.
