Today was the point of no return, Android just isn't useful for doing office work. Had to spend 3 hours freaking hours just to edit my so called "docx" files to have the look I want in Word 2010.
Of course like a lot of people I've decided to pass on the MBP 2016 and I'm waiting for the surface pro 5, maybe even Surface Book 2 but anyways in the meantime I've saved some budget and will now buy a cheap device to finally take notes and not worry about how the design looks on Word 2010! This has driven me insane today.
I know at this price point I shouldn't expect much and thankfully I don't need much. The only requirements are:
- Foxitreader and Office programs need to run side by side
- keyboard should have solid travel I know I can't expect surface pro 4 like quality
- 1366 x 766 at least as resolution
- battery life >= 6 hours
- must run Windows
Things I've been looking at so far:
- Asus Transformer Book T102ha but man that keyboard looks very cramped
- Asus E200ha - nice 11,6 inch but only 2gb of ram worries me I'll doubt thats enough to run my programs side by side flawlessy
- Lenovo Miix 320 (4gb) variant - sadly no parice point and ETA for Austria
So if someone has any other suggestions they would be very welcome, I've also thought hard about buying a used one on ebay but the unsureness about the batteries makes me think that this might not be a good idea.
