It’s been an exciting few weeks with the launch of our first fully converged device, the Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition tablet. To celebrate this and to gain deeper insights we held a competition last month that asked the community – what their life would look like if all their computing needs fitted into one device?
With almost 400 entries we whittled down some of favourite insights below including the winners – happy reading!
- No more back pains and no more headaches
- I love the thought of a machine I can easily use at my desk and standing on the train
- Less complicated, more efficient
- One day we will look up and laugh about the fact that we used to have a different device and operating system for every job
- It would be like wearing a reinvented loincloth: light and sufficient. Not need anything else at all
- #UbuntuReinvents so I can be truly mobile
- Life unified. All your threads woven together
- All my computing and communications in one adaptive device…Goodbye backpack, hello pocket
- Mobile and desktop computing: it is now one and the same. Easy, everywhere, inexpensive
- Packing to travel for work would be easier. Just take the Ubuntu tablet + keyboard
- I would only have to worry about one battery!
- Dreaming about having more bag space
- This means to me simply next-gen everything
- Easy -Simple -Creative -Affordable -Productive -Effective
- Coding has defined the way we live,that device will change the way we code & it’ll be revolutionary
- A single device for all computing? It’d be like every SciFi universe ever, where everyone has an omnitool for all purposes
- One Device to rule them all, One Device to find them. One Device to bring them all and in Convergence bind them
- It’s like backpacking without a backpack #UbuntuReinvents
