VERDICT
It’s not powerful, but with a Full HD display and bundled keyboard, the 12X64 is a bargain
TWO-IN-ONE laptops are proving to be increasingly popular, but most tend to be pretty pricey. Not so with the Linx 12X64, a Windows 10 tablet with a bundled detachable keyboard and a 12.5in Full HD multitouch display that costs just £250.
The design is uninspiring: the Linx’s hard plastic shell is bland and nowhere near as attractive as the colourful HP Stream 11 or the Asus Transformer Mini (Shopper 356) with its stunning aluminium frame. We like the aluminium kickstand, however. It’s fully adjustable, just like the far more expensive Microsoft Surface Pro (Shopper 356), and allows you to prop up the 12X64 on a desk or your lap. With the stand folded away, you can lay it completely flat, too.
TRACK IN BLACK
Another point in the Linx 12X64’s favour is that it comes with the keyboard attachment in the box. This connects to the main body of the tablet with a magnetic strip located at the bottom of the tablet, and it feels very comfortable to type on. There’s a slight flex in the base when it’s tilted at an angle, but with the keyboard placed flat on a solid surface, it doesn’t budge. The trackpad under the spacebar is a joy to use, too; it’s accurate and doesn’t suffer from any tracking problems at all.
