Have been using it for over 3 months now and being in the computer field myself I did some research before buying this laptop and I would say it was a good buy. Pros: Multi-touch expandable touchscreen view. Screen adjusts to landscape view automatically if screen is rotated. (Not for all sites/software and no it's not always the laptops fault. Some sites/software are built that way and of course it's not an iPAD) Light and sleek for a thinkpad. Doesn't have a cheap look. It has expensive sleek look to it. Smooth switch from tablet to laptop mode. Even in laptop mode I have used mouse pad along with touchscreen with quick responses. Onscreen keyboard is available and automatically pops up on touchscreen. Wifi connects up to 45-48 mbps on a 50-55 mbps service. My previous Dell laptop used to connect at 25 mpbs on wifi. Don't get me wrong, Dells are still durable machines. Fan is not as loud as other review states. Of course if you block the air vents by covering it all up on your comfortable pillow or comforter then the fan will kick in faster making louder noise. At least place it on a binder or something. Cons: No backlit keyboard Not available in i7 Switching from tablet to laptop mode, I noticed that few keys around the center will only pop half way up. It happens that I had to gently push down the keyboard frame for the keys to pop up completely. Happened few times when laptop was new. Haven't happened lately. If the screen goes to sleep while still in laptop or tablet mode, sometimes it doesn't wake up from sleep even through keystrokes or mouse pad actions and have to use power button to wake it up. Mouse pad sometimes doesn't respond or will freeze as if it has confused itself from laptop mode with tablet mode but it will start reacting after few min. Doesn't have Ethernet port so cannot be used on wired only network. Definitely this laptop has more positive aspects to it compared to bad and even with the bad it's happens randomly and occasionally.

II love this laptop. I am a gamer and I wanted a laptop that would play Dayz standalone. I have found the laptop that can play the games I want on setting that are appealing to the eyes. The water and dtails of game look real. I like the battery life. I believe his surfing the net I got around 4 hours of surfing. The keyboad has a great feel to it. You figure just glide over the keys.

I wish it had a faster processor, but it is a good laptop. I love the responsive touchscreen and how it has so many positions though I'm not sure I will use them all. It's super lightweight which was a major goal of mine. I've been impressed with the battery life as well. At first i was put off by windows 8, but now I'm happy with it.
