We know for sure that the price will get up to $399 (£299 and AU$599). The device ’s smaller, it has a 10-inch display, in comparison with the 12.3-inch Pro device, the latter which makes us feel like we’re holding an iPad. It’s also worth mentioning that it will have Pentium processors instead of the Core i-series Intel CPU. This will make it feel more like a laptop than a PC. It’s a step back when it comes to the processing power. We cannot really understand the difference between them 2, instead of the obvious ones.
