Inside the T100 is a non-removable 31 Wh ASUS Transformer Book T100 battery that Asus claims will last for 11 hours, which puts the x86-based T100’s estimated lifespan on par with ARM tablets. Intel has been focusing on energy efficiency for some time now , with low-power SoCs like Bay Trail at the forefront of Intel’s war on ARM chips for its latest tablets.
During my time using the Transformer Book, the ASUS Transformer Book T100 battery tended to last for several days as long as I occasionally browsed the web, used social media, and occasionally watched some YouTube videos. When I actually sat down and used the device for extended periods of time, editing articles using apps like Microsoft Word, and downloading apps and games, the internal battery lasted about 8 to 10 hours, which was definitely a nice experience. Apparently, the Bay Trail SoC will start to consume more power when playing games or performing other resource-intensive tasks. When I played games downloaded through Steam or the Windows Store, the T100 lasted up to about 6 hours; all things considered, that’s a decent effort.
I noticed that it took a surprisingly long time to charge the T100 from empty to full using the included charger or the most powerful USB charger I have in my office. When I first received the device, it was completely out of battery and took over four hours to fully charge. Keep this in mind during your regular usage patterns as it’s definitely worth charging overnight so it’s ready for use during the day.
In our ASUS Transformer Book T100 batteryrundown test, where we looped a 720p video in airplane mode at 75% brightness until the tablet drained, the ASUS Transformer Book T100 lasted more than nine hours, which is a worthwhile Complimentary result. Comparing it to some of the other tablets we’ve seen recently, Intel’s Bay Trail chip appears to be holding its own against 10-inch ARM-based devices like the iPad Air.
Who is it for?Asus is definitely not trying to push out fancy specs, a high-resolution display, or new innovative features with the Transformer Book T100. Instead, it’s positioned as an entry-level tablet that runs full Windows 8.1, can access desktop and traditional apps, and can be converted into a small laptop with the included keyboard dock. This combination is particularly attractive to students and other consumers on a budget who are looking for something more versatile than an Android tablet or iPad but don’t have the cash to buy a higher-end convertible.
Additionally, the keyboard base is a useful accessory, and while it doesn’t include a second battery , it does provide a good typing experience considering its size. The display’s resolution is by far the T100’s biggest weakness, as it fails to impress. Other tablets in this price range offer 1080p. As a media consumption device, the T100 is a solid choice , although the app selection in the Windows Store leaves a lot to be desired compared to iOS or Android. I’m also not a big fan of the all-glossy look, which is clearly designed for function rather than beauty.
If you can live with the budget trade-offs of the T100, it will undoubtedly suit some people well. But if you’re looking for a well-rounded 10-inch touch device in the $400-$500 range, it might be worth exploring ARM-based options.
