In recent months, when we have presented you with tablets and smartphones of all kinds, for the most part, one of the most characteristic features of these terminals has been the fact that they come from China. Many of the Asian giant's technology companies have managed to make the leap outside their borders despite the fact that in many cases, very tight terminals are marketed that cannot be demanded too much, or whose acquisition in some cases is more complicated. However, we also show you devices created by firms from other regions of the world such as Europe, which are not willing to give ground to the Asian push when it comes not only to the consumption of technology, but also to its production in the strict sense.
Today we will tell you more about one of these models devised in the Old Continent and that aims to compete in a segment in which many players in the sector are betting everything: 2 in 1 tablets. The terminal is called wind and it has been the work of a company called Primux that, after having launched several conventional smartphones and tablets, was also launched about a year ago, to conquer those audiences who want to bring together leisure and work in the same medium.
Integrated
In this sense, we do not find significant differences with other models in this field. The dimensions of this convertible are 23 × 15 centimeters approximately. Among its strengths, its thickness stands out, of only 10 mm. With the built-in keyboard, its weight does not exceed a kilo and is available in dark blue. Regarding the case of the tablet, the existing photographs of this model seem to reflect a terminal made in hardened plastic that, despite not being the most resistant material that we can find today, if it can offer a little more resistance.

A 2-in-1 tablet that is also configured as an option for leisure, must have the highest possible visual performance or at least, adjusted. In this case, Wind would be equipped with a multi-touch diagonal of 8,9 inches to which would be added a basic HD resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels. The cameras, a front of 0,3 Mpx and a rear of 2, do not offer great displays but they can be enough for video calls in environments with good lighting. In addition, it has a port HDMI to be able to connect the terminal to other supports and reproduce all kinds of audiovisual content through it.
Performance
The characteristics of Wind in this field can be interpreted in many ways. For some, considering the longevity of this model (about a year), its processor Intel Atom capable of reaching peaks of 1,8 GHz and with averages of 1,3, it can be balanced if we also take into account that it belongs to the low cost range. For others, something outdated. It all depends on the intensity of use and for what purposes it serves. At the same time, it has a 2 GB RAM which is not the most advanced either, but it is sufficient if we also take into account that it has a capacity of 32GB starting storage However, it can be expanded to 128 using Micro SD cards.
Operating System
On previous occasions, when we showed you more 2-in-1 terminals, especially in the input range, we told you that the incorporation of Windows 10 It was intended to raise the level of these devices a little more in order to be more attractive to a professional public despite the fact that in other services, they did not reach the levels of the industry benchmarks. With Wind this idea is embodied since it has the latest version of Microsoft's platform that, in addition to combating a little the fact that it has been on sale for a year, has support for the latest updates. In terms of networks, it has support for WiFi, Bluetooth and connections 3G compatible with the interface. Its battery, lithium as usual, has a capacity of 4.000 mAh.
Availability and price
As we have been reminding you along these lines, the Primux convertible bet has been on the market for a long time, which has contributed to lower its cost even more, which is around the $150 in some of the largest consumer electronics chains in Spain and in some Internet shopping portals. Its starting price was close to 190.
As you have seen, in the 2-in-1 tablet sector it is also possible to find another series of devices that try, with greater or lesser success, to occupy a place despite the competition offered by Asian technology companies. Do you think that Wind may be an option to consider for those users who wish to have a basic device to perform some of their tasks at work, combining it with leisure, or do you think that it could have been left behind something and that is possible to find other more balanced and current models? You have available more related information on similar models from companies such as Teclast so that you can give your own opinion.
