minus-squareHawk@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI think the issue with devices like this is that apps simply aren’t optimized for use like this. I have a Surface. Barely used it as a tablet really, there aren’t a ton of uses and Windows in tablet mode is just awful. With the keyboard it turns into a neat and portable mini laptop, which I love. The Starlite seems neat, but with the current specs it feels like not quite a tablet yet not quite a laptop either.
