We weren't convinced LG's Z160 convertible was skinny enough for
Ultrabook status, but the Korean company
has run with the title and launched the Tab-Book Ultra in its homeland.
The 11.6-inch slider runs full-fat Windows 8 on an Intel Core i5 CPU in
the top-end configuration (GH5WK), and much to the joy of data-hungry
users, packs an LTE radio in addition to standard WiFi. Those who want a
more traditional laptop experience but also need 4G for the road can
now purchase an LTE refresh of the U460 notebook, which has been
launched in tandem. LG will be showing off the LTE-equipped Tab-Book
Ultra at MWC later this month, although its 'new series' of smartphones
is sure to steal all the attention. We're still in the dark about when
the Z160 will be available elsewhere, but Korean e-tailers are listing
it at circa 1,400,000 won (around $1,300), so we can probably expect a
similar price when it starts touring.
