Key Features
Removable keyboard lets you switch between tablet and laptop computing in seconds
1 years access to Microsoft Office mobile lets you work anywhere
Carry it easily and work anywhere thanks to the compact and lightweight design
Quad-core Intel® processor runs your apps and software quickly for responsive everyday computing
Whether you're taking notes in a lecture or streaming catch up TV, you can work and play in comfort thanks to the Miix's handy removable keyboard.
You can use it as a normal tablet when you're browsing the web, checking social media, and streaming media and then simply click the keyboard on when you need to type a document or email.
It's great for students as you only need one device for both university and home use.
You can get to work right-away without having to buy any other software as the Miix comes with a free one-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Mobile. This gives you access to Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Access, so you can access your most used PC software wherever you are.
The Miix is light and small enough to be carried with you anywhere. Even with the keyboard attached it weighs around half as much as a normal laptop, so it won't weigh you down when commuting or travelling.
You can work and watch all day without charging too, as the Miix has a 9 hour battery life.
Take quick pictures of your surroundings or video chat with faraway friends using the front and rear cameras - great for students living away from family.
From running Facebook to word processing and spreadsheet software, your apps will run smoothly thanks to the Intel® Atom™ processor.
It's a quad-core processor, which means it can run more at once, which is ideal if you're researching and writing a dissertation, streaming music while you work, or chatting a few people at once.

Good price.
Anyone who has one of these - what's the realistic battery life like? I got a Surface 3 last year and it would run out of battery pretty quick... and at times i would charge it and pick it up and it'd be dead!

Sounds like your surface was faulty. I admit I've only used them at work and for nothing to demanding but the batteries on them were really good.

Battery life is great, typically get at least 8hrs. Not the fastest pc in the world, but you cant argue for the price.

If you just charged it and it was dead half an hour later, then you have a faulty device.

I bought a used 8" miix (£36 was an absolute steal) and so far, it seems pretty good. Didn't get the keyboard though as weight is an issue when I'm travelling.

Battery life is decent. But It's extremely slow! Not the best if you're going to be doing documents and having some Web pages open, expect some lag. If you want something snappy, definitely looks elsewhere. Also, something who has issues with the onscreen keyboard doesn't always wake up itself to be ready to type, you got to press the keyboard icon.
It's decent for maybe an entry level student 8-13 or something similar.

Got one (when i though they were a good price at £130!). Battery life is great - 6-7hrs depending on what you're doing. Yes it's not gonna set the world alight with it's specs but I've never had a problem with speed when i'm browsing, or checking work email or editing documents. Has been exactly what I've needed when I've been on the road and the included Office Mobile is good enough for most of the editing i need to do in Word and Excel.

These devices are becoming insanely cheap. I wouldn't live with one as a sole device but if you have a more powerful desktop or laptop already they are great companion devices. 2gb of ram makes these very useable.
Windows 10 apps are limited but I'd take one of these over a similar price android tablet any day. The HDMI out alone makes it a very appealing media device.
