There’s also 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage and a microSD card slot. These can easily show their 2 in 1 nature, with a keyboard cover attached and that accessory seems to have been inspired by the Type Cover from the Surface models. Connectivity has great cover here, with mini HDMI, USB Type C port, microUSB, two USBs and WiFi 802.11 b/g/n.
