Asus sells these laptops by the shovel load so that the majority manufacturers have also entered into this battle. It is now with the turn of those famous top-of-the-range manufacturers of expensive products to get interested in this segment, Sony in the lead. The group has approached Foxconn to order the components necessary to manufacture these mini laptops.
The other Japanese manufacturers, NEC, Fujitsu and Toshiba are also on the line. These new products will arrive in time for the festivals of end of the year.
We do not know if Apple will decide to also offer a product in this range or if they prefer to be devoted to products with larger added value.
