Express your love with tech this Valentine’s Day

Whether it’s an excited high-five, a sympathetic squeeze of the shoulder or holding hands while on a date, touch has always been a way for humans to express affection. Now, with advances in today’s technology, we are also using touch to interact with the devices that keep us connected to the ones we love.

This Valentine’s Day, instead of roses, chocolates or jewelry, why not give some tech love to your valentine with one of the latest touch-enabled Ultrabook convertibles or tablets. These Intel-powered gadgets are the perfect way to express your love and keep your loved one entertained and on the go long after February 14 passes.

The latest Ultrabook convertibles marry performance, responsiveness and sleek designs with a premium computing experience – laptop functionality when you need it and a touch-enabled experience when you want it. With a flip, slide or swivel of your convertible device you can transform your experience from laptop to tablet. Its ultra-sleek, lightweight form makes the Ultrabook convertible the perfect device for those who want to stay more connected.

Or, if you prefer something a little slinkier this Valentine’s Day, perhaps an Intel Atom processor based tablet would be the right device for your loved one. These thin, highly portable devices have all-day battery life and are easy to use with advanced touch screen capabilities. Catch up with friends on a video chat, browse through the latest holiday photos on your favorite social networks or finish up some last-minute shopping, all while relaxing on the sofa.

With so many Ultrabook convertible and tablet devices to choose from you’ll be sure to find the one that expresses your undying affection perfectly.
