ASUS has introduced two new laptops and a Windows-based Tablet under their Transformer series. ASUS Transformer series has already produced a few spectacular Transformer products which are usually known as hybrid tablets. With a detachable keyboard, they can be used as a full-fledged laptop as well as a tablet on need.

They have added three more products in this existing range, out of which two are regular hybrid tablets and a laptop naming 'Flipbook'.

ASUS Transformer Book Flip is a 15.6-inch Windows 8.1 laptop, features a 1366 x 768 touchscreen with a well-designed hinge design that enables the screen to be set at any angle between zero and 360 degrees. Flip is incredibly versatile, and can be used as a powerful laptop, a responsive tablet, or anything in between. It is powered by Intel Core i3 & i5 processors with NVIDIA GeForce NV 820M discrete graphics for seamless multitasking and outstanding performance, whether for productivity, entertainment or playing the latest games.

It also features instant-on technology, a feature which takes two seconds to resume from sleep, and users don't need to worry about losing data when in sleep mode for up to 14 days — when the Lithium-polymer battery's charge drops below 5%, files and data are automatically backed up.

ASUS Transformer Book T200 is ultraportable and is also an 11.6-inch Windows tablet. Detach the tablet to work and play anywhere, and dock to enjoy the full-sized keyboard, advanced connectivity, and easy-upgrade storage. Transformer Book T200 is also said to have a battery life of up to 10.4 hours. Powered by an Intel Z3775 Bay Trail processor, the Transformer Book is equipped with USB 3.0 connectivity for data transfers.

With a 16:9 ratio, 1366 x 768-pixel HD resolution screen, the ASUS Transformer T200 features a 5MP rear and 2MP front cameras for essential needs.

Peter Chang, Regional Head - South Asia & Country Manager – System Business Group - ASUS India said, "We are ecstatic about introducing the all new additions [sic] to the much-celebrated Transformer Series to India. India has been one of the key markets for the entire transformer series. In it our constant endeavour to effectively amalgamate our users' needs with incredible experiences and deliver in the form of revolutionary hybrids, notebooks and tablets.
