our coverage of computex 2017 is brought to you by the Corsair 1 and Synergy you
can check them both out at the link in the video description okay so Eve is
this really small startup that was founded to be like a disruptive device
maker with an emphasis on community feedback to help them design the best
products for their Community to which I would normally go well gee you guys
taking Community feedback is a great way to get an awful l of uh let's say how
about we call them C minus ideas but the
V2 in1 Windows device that they're showing off here at the show
demonstrates that they've got the ability to filter through the guidance
they're getting from their users and pick out the best ideas because this is
looking pretty good every device has the
same basic specs so they've got a 12.3 in display running at a
2736 X 1824 resolution ution and what's
more than that they've managed an impressive 1,400 to1 contrast ratio a
basically air gapless display design
10-point multi-touch and a 100% QC check
policy so every single device is going to get calibrated right out of the
factory and the io is looking pretty good too they've got two noise
cancelling microphones as well as speakers along the top they've got two
USB type A ports a USB type- C port a
Thunderbolt port and lo and behold even a headphone amp wow how did they manage
to do that in a device in 2017 Wi-Fi is
handled by an internal 2x2 AC wireless card and you can wake the device with
just one touch thanks to the integrated fingerprint sensor in the lock button
every single one is going to include their 1,24 pressure level and two button
pen as well as this Alcantara cover that
has a gorilla glass covered trackpad as well as an RGB back lit keyboard so
pricing wise it's starting at $7.99 which is pretty darn competitive with
the Surface Pro with a corm 3 8 gigs of RAM and a 128 gig NVMe SSD and it goes
up to well we don't quite know but probably somewhere in the $1,500 range
for a core i7 16 gigs of RAM and a 512
gig SSD which when you put it up against the Surface Pro is looking pretty
impressive like it's over $500 cheaper
so how did they do it I guess it comes back to the whole collaborating with the
community idea well they ended up with a little bit of a thicker device but I
like this trade-off they get a massive 48w hour battery and we're able to fit
full-sized USB 3 ports on it pretty freaking cool and there's other stuff
too the community said you know what don't worry about spending a bunch of money on the webcam we're not going to
use it that much and so they didn't so
then Bottom Line This is hardly a comprehensive review of the device I
only got to spend about an hour with it but I feel like there's still a lot to
say like it's shocking how price competitive this small startup has
managed to be with a massive company like Microsoft and while the device is
actually not even available yet they're going to be doing a run of them that
will be available for purchase sometime in the summer I don't want to get ahead
of myself but I think if their goal is to be kind of like a one plusus of
Windows devices they are on a pretty
good track right now so thanks for watching guys and thanks to Corsair and
