    The E11 (red) and the larger E14 (green) both run the latest versions of Windows 8.1. The big difference between the two is the highly customizable nature of the E14, which can have either an Intel or AMD processor, and comes in touch or non-touch options.

    Side-by-side, you can see the difference. The larger 14-inch display E14 has a stronger battery life, and comes in a larger range of colors.
