Closing the ultrabook and it will transform to a tablet with touchscreen capabilities offering a Windows 8 tablet experience.

The hybrid PC, which comes in two configurations: Intel quad-core i7 or Intel quad-core i5, has the ability to get both screen running independently or simultaneously.

The Taichi is already available at RM3999 onwards.
