Could one device be a laptop, tablet, and smartphone? As paradoxical as it may sound, Asus believed that such a thing was possible and introduced the groundbreaking Transformer Book V.
The device was presented during the Computex technology exhibition held in Taiwan and is described by the company itself as a 3-in-1 laptop, with five alternative functions.
The Transformer Book V can operate as a Windows and Android device, laptop and tablet, as well as an Android smartphone. Its design includes a removable 12.5‑inch diagonal screen, which can be turned into a separate tablet, within which there is a smartphone with a five‑inch diagonal screen.
In laptop form , the Transformer Book V runs two alternative operating systems: Windows 8.1 and Android 4.4 KitKat . It features a full QWERTY keyboard and touchpad, combined with a dedicated button to switch between the two operating systems. Internally, it has an Intel processor, 1TB of storage and a 12.5-inch HD IPS display with touch support.
Similarly, in tablet form, it can switch between Windows 8.1 and Android 4.4 KitKat by tapping the screen. Each operating system provides access to the respective app stores ( Google Play Store and Windows Store ), while its storage space amounts to 128GB.
Inside the tablet is a smartphone with Android 4.4 KitKat operating system, LTE network support and a 5.5-inch diagonal screen. This individual device uses a quad-core Intel Atom processor and a 2500 mAh battery.
