Not true. Same processor, same specs, same thinner profile are throttling exactly the same, and, for most uses, that is no big deal. Just like every other ultra book vs laptop vs desktop choice, every choice involves compromises. It's all about selecting the best balance of machine features for YOUR uses.
For me, and for most users, it is a replacement for my laptop and my tablet. Just because that is not true for 100% of users does not make it deceptive..... There is an assumption that users will bring some small level of common sense to the evaluation.
As to poor engineering........lol. A 1.7 pound reasonably large screened full laptop made this thin is a very impressive engineering feat.
It is way more than a tablet with some PC functionality, as demonstrated daily by those of us using it for much more than that.
If it doesn't work for your needs, then don't buy it.
It's really simple.
