Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480): Review of the Aldi notebook

The Aldi-Convertible Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480) will be available from February 26th 2017 for 349 euros at Aldi South. In this article you will read what experienced testers think about the hybrids from touchscreen laptop and Windows 8.1 tablet. A common term for this device class is Convertible.


Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480): Full Tablet


With the current Aldi South offer, the main processor is a one-chip system (SoC, system-on-a-chip) and integrated in the screen module. CPU and RAM as well as the GPU form one unit. When the keyboard module is connected, the internal memory is extended by a conventional hard disk, which is located in the keyboard part.

The IPS touch screen of the Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480) measures 11.6 inches in the diagonal and has a full-HD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. The combination of the entry-level SoC Intel Celeron N2940, 4 GB of built-in DDR3L RAM, Intel HD graphics, 64 GB of internal memory and Windows 8.1 makes the screen a full-fledged, large tablet with average performance Br>


Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480): Mobility in focus


Closing the screen to the base unit expands the memory by a 500 GB magnetic hard disk. In addition, you are then pleased with a card reader and the double battery power - both on the screen and in the base module is a battery integrated. Medion gives the total running time with ten hours. As a special treat, the device also offers a touch-pen.


Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480): features


The Convertible is intended for users who appreciate and need the mobility of a tablet and the working comfort of a notebook. Raw computing power is not necessarily the main focus of the convertible buyers, more important are, among other things, recharge times or the screen quality.


On the paper both features stand out positively. Both ten hours of endurance (for a small notebook, although as a manufacturer's specification) as well as full-HD resolution are good basic data. The given computing power is sufficient for Windows, Office and Web for working hours. For fast presentations, the display can be folded up to 300 degrees.


The Medion Akoya P2214T (MD 99480) offers many interfaces: In addition to an HD webcam with microphone, the Convertible uses the new WLAN-AC standard to connect to networks and routers. The tablet module also has a location sensor that switches the display display from portrait to portrait, depending on the orientation.


In addition to Windows 8.1, a package of apps and tools from Cyberlink and Ashampoo is included with the software. Office 365 and McAfee LiveSafe are waiting for trial versions.


The price of 349 euros for a convertible with full HD display is fine. If you're looking for more power from your hybrid device or have other priorities, check out our purchase advice with convertible tests.
