ASUS Chromebook Detachable CM3 (hereinafter abbreviated as CM3)

10.If you can't use the main machine at 5 inches ... if it's a submachine!

If you introduce the specifications of "ASUS Chromebook Detachable CM3 (hereinafter abbreviated as CM3)", which was announced in the Japanese market on March 17 and sold on the same day, it is a very popular SOC in the chromebook of Mediatek MT8183.use.RAM4GB, EMMC storage 128GB and Chromebook with sufficient memory, 10.It is a 2-in-1 keyboard on the 5-inch 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA) display.

In addition to the 10 -point touch on the screen, it has a pen input, so it is very good in terms of ease of input.The thickness is only the main unit 7.9mm, with a keyboard and back cover 16.9mm.This is now nominal 12.It is said that it can be used for 3 hours (12 hours when using the keyboard).Unusual for Chromebook, it has not only inkame but also out camera.The attached keyboard and the cover on the back of the main unit are fabric materials, and the hardness on tablets and laptops is very striking.In addition, because it is a tablet design, the input / output port is only one USB-C and headset terminals that are used as a power supply terminal.

The key is a Japanese standard array of Chromebook, and the key pitch is about 16mm, but this is inevitable considering the display size.The irregular pitch is "¥" and "BS (back space)" and the return key is not bad.In addition, because it contains a magnet, it is easy to enter the keyboard and it is easy to enter it, and it is nice that the keyboard does not fluctuate even if you hold it because it sticks to the main unit.

The CM3 can be used not only in the horizontal direction, but also in the vertical direction, as well as the back cover kick stand.This is convenient for watching vertical images for smartphones.However, the keyboard can only be used sideways because it is connected to the main unit with a pogopin.There is a way to use the keyboards and mice of Bluetooth connection, but this is enough because there are few situations where keyboards have to be used on the vertical screen.

The stylus pen (ASUS USI PEN) is included in the main unit.In addition to being stored in the main unit, it is not likely to cause lost trouble, and it is a mechanism that is charged when storing the main unit, so it is nice to be able to use a pen immediately.It is said that it can be used for 45 minutes with 15 seconds charge, so it is nice to be able to use it during the break even if the battery runs out.

The shortcoming CM3 is that the AC adapter is not a folding type.AC adapters that cannot store the terminals will be poorly portable.Earlier, when I complained about this point at another product presentation, it was said that "Taiwanese headquarters does not understand", but there are many solutions due to standard USB PD.

The power adapter attached to the main unit is 45W and PD, so it is a variable type of 5/9/15/20V (up to 3A).According to the sticker notation on the back of CM3, it is 15V3A, but it seems to be 9V power supply when the adapter is actually connected.

The sound is written in the catalog as "5 magnet speaker", but it is basically located on the upper part of the main unit, and on the horizontal screen, even if it is turned upside down as a tablet, the left and right sounds along it, but on the vertical screen, it is stereo.will not ring.For those who regularly use the vertical screen (Bluetooth), want to use headphones.
