Convertibles are taking center stage in the first part of this year. Some _gadgets_ that want to occupy a part of the PC market and on the other hand to satisfy that group of users that has not been able to cover the tablet market We have plenty of options and now one more is coming to add.

This is the case of Chuwi, which has announced the upcoming arrival (it is a Crowfunding project via IndieGoGo) of a new convertible that under the name of SurBook (curious the mixture between Surface and Book) wants to gain a foothold in a market in which in recent years we have seen alternatives such as the HP Pro X2, the Samsung Galaxy Book Lenovo with the Miix 320 or the Lenovo Yoga 520.

But let's get down to business and see what this SurBook can offer. A device whose design and shapes remind us tremendously of Microsoft's Surface 4 with a back where we practically expect to find the Windows window.

A screen that is also the same resolution as the Surface 4 and that is powered by a 10,000 mAh battery that according to the manufacturer offers up to 8 hours of autonomy .

The processor that drives the entire operating system, in this case Windows 10, is a processor Intel Apollo Lake N3450 Quad core running at 2.20 GHz which is supported by a graphics card Intel HD Graphics 500 to 700 MHzThese data are completed with a 6 GB LPDDR3 1600 MHz RAM memory and a storage capacity of 128 GB, also having the possibility of expanding it with a microSD card.
