Hello,
I need to change my PC, and wanting to move to a 2-in-1, I've done quite a bit of research to find one that combines a good hard drive, touch screen, battery life, RAM, and with a budget constraint: €500 (as it falls under professional expenses and if its cost exceeds €500, I have to spread it out in my accounting...).
I had spotted the Yoga 500-14" (FHD, 1 TB, 4 GB of RAM, Nvidia GeForce...) for €490, but customer reviews show a battery life of 2 hours...
I then turned to the HP Pavilion x2 10-n132nf (12 hours of battery life, HD, 500 GB, 4 GB of RAM, Intel HD) for €400 but with a 10.1" screen...
Then, when I went to the Cultural Space, I found the Asus T300 Chi-fl 040 h (12.5", 128 GB expandable, FHD, 8 hours of battery life, detachable keyboard, 4 GB of RAM). Anyway, it has everything to please, plus its usual price is €749 but it's at -40%, so €449!
The only downside: there's only the display model left, the keyboard was not protected, the battery is not removable so it was running from 9 to 8 PM...
I inspected it, it has no scratches (it was on a fairly high shelf).
But the whole dilemma is whether it's worth it!
Thank you in advance!

Hello
As for the battery, when on display, this machine had to be plugged in, so it remained fully charged, without going through cycles that would have worn it out.

Hi, I bought a display computer (an HP) three months ago and I have no problems. I see a lot of people complaining about display models, but when the seller is reliable, there are no issues, just savings to be made.
I recommend either going to a store or checking expodispo.fr to be sure of your choice. -
It's not such a great deal... this machine is no longer at the advertised price... without looking too hard and not on the cheapest site.
