I'm van Ackerman Asher has a whole bunch of you back to school hybrids from low end to high end we're going to take a look at some of them right now one of asians new hybrids is this guy it's the Aspire r11 if this sort of style looks familiar it's because you've seen a lot of these fold back hybrids we call them that can fold into a tablet shape or stop in kind of a kiosk mode or flip back to a traditional clam shell laptop this is going to be you know a lower end model 1366 x 768 screen pentium or celeron processors but of course it is a touchscreen and is covered with Gorilla Glass so it should be pretty sturdy that's going to come July for about two hundred and fifty dollars now this is a more premium hybrid to see switch 11v you know it's got metal construction it's got an IPS screen again gorilla glass and like the other switch systems it's got a magnet that keeps the two parts together I find this is probably the best way to do a pull apart hybrid with a magnet stuff like a physical latch much like apples 12-inch MacBook and a couple of other small slim systems we've seen lately it's going to run Intel's Core M processor although we don't have the price or release date just now on the less expensive end is the switch 10 it's a 10 inch version comes in a couple of different colors it's also got that gorilla glass screen this one runs an intel atom and again the magnetic hinge here which i think is a definitely the easiest way to detach and reattach a hybrid hinge this guy is coming in july starting at 279 acer also has a slightly more upscale switch that mimics one of my favorite acer laptop the Aspire s7 and that model like this one had this gorilla glass overlay on the back of the lid it made for a very slick sophisticated look now you can get it in a switch 10 now this machine also has an intel atom processor and a 1920 x 1200 resolution like the other switches of course you've got that magnetic hinge i like so much this guy should be available in august for around four hundred dollars you
