The device is a bit chintzy &#8211; more pressed metal and injected plastic than I like to see on a laptop &#8211; but at about $1,000 retail it&#8217;s an acceptable compromise for Win8 users who are looking for a nicer tablet.<\/p>\n<p>I gave this device a Fly simply because I like the idea &#8211; a laptop that turns into a tablet with much fuss &#8211; but Matt was unimpressed. A little treat for you: this thing was so hard to describe that I had to read the name off of my phone and I still mispronounced it. <\/p>\n<p>The laptop hit about 6 hours of battery life and a Geekbench score of about 4,000, on par with the i5 tablets we tested. The lower price &#8211; especially at this late in the game for this laptop, make it an interesting choice for a fleet laptop but I think the fit, finish, and power could detract from its overall appeal. It&#8217;s an interesting laptop, to be sure, but not the best of the bunch.<\/p>\n<p>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2090\/' title='scaled-2090'><\/a>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2081\/' title='scaled-2081'><\/a>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2083\/' title='scaled-2083'><\/a>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2085\/' title='scaled-2085'><\/a>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2087\/' title='scaled-2087'><\/a>\n<a href='http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2013\/05\/24\/laptop-week-review-samsung-700t-fly-or-die\/scaled-2079\/' title='scaled-2079'><\/a>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/tag\/laptop-week\"><\/a><\/p>\n<br \/>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/tctechcrunch2011.wordpress.com\/820757\/\"><\/a> <div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=wCGkQO_rsAc:5BCTDCovE90:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=wCGkQO_rsAc:5BCTDCovE90:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=wCGkQO_rsAc:5BCTDCovE90:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?i=wCGkQO_rsAc:5BCTDCovE90:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?a=wCGkQO_rsAc:5BCTDCovE90:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/crunchgear?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In lieu of a formal review, Matt Burns and I sat down to take a look at the Samsung 700T AKA ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T, a convertible tablet that has a small button on the keyboard that pops out the Windows 8 tablet that forms the brains of the machine.
