Asus’ mobile department isn’t the only one announcing new
products at COMPUTEX this year. The company’s PC wing is also debuting a number
of devices at the event including a new AIO computer, a mobile projector and
two transformers.
First up, the 23.8-inch Zen AIO is packing a 3D camera
technology that provides gesture control and 3D face recognition for people who
are too tired to use a keyboard or mouse to control the PC or type a password.
The computer is built using aluminum with the Zen line’s iconic rippled brush
pattern.
The internals is composed of a Core i7 processor, up to 32GB
of DDR4 RAM, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M with 4GB of dedicated video memory and
up to 4 PCIe Gen 3 SSDs. Asus also claims that the device is the first AIO to
bear USB 3.1 Generation 2 connectivity that can transfer data up to 10Gbit per
second.
Asus has also made a very portable projector that can be
used for its line of smartphones and tablets. The Asus E1Z can fit in one’s
packet and comes with its own rechargeable battery that’s rated at 6000mAh. The
specs of the device hasn’t been fully disclosed yet but Asus says the device
can go up to $200 when it becomes available.
The company also showed a demo gaming PC unit called the
H-tower that transforms at a flip of a switch. The device is the product of the
collaboration between the company’s Republic of Gamers (ROG) wing and In Win
case manufacturer.
The computer features a set of pistons and hinges that
separates and provides easy access to the machines internals allowing for easy swapping
of internal components. There’s no concrete information yet if Asus will mass
produce the device and its specs are still not been fully disclosed yet.
Lastly, there’s the company’s latest 2-in-1 device, the
Transformer Book T100HA. Specs-wise, this device packs an Intel Atom X5 chip
with 4GB of RAM and up to 128GB of eMMC storage.
The device’s 10.1-inch has a resolution of 1200 x 800 and
Asus claims the battery can last up to 14 hours on a single charge. It’s also
quite interesting that Asus is jumping into the USB Type C bandwagon with this
model just like the new MacBook.
Pricing and shipping
dates for the devices mentioned above are not finalized yet, so we just have to
wait a little longer for an official word from Asus.
