Asus Transformer AiO P1801 Review

Asus has a lot of offbeat and unthinkable designs to its credit, especially for their Android tablets. Remember the Eee Pad Slider and Transformer Prime? Such unique designs present a new way to use devices and take user experience to a new level....

Now, for the most interesting bit—switching of the operating system. With the tablet docked to the PC Station, you have a desktop PC running Windows 8. While docked, the blue button switches between Android and Windows 8. When undocked, the Android OS...

Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101G Review

Tablets make fun multimedia devices but when it comes down to real work, like typing out this review for instance, there's no replacing the good ol' physical keyboard. You could always buy a bluetooth keyboard as an add-on but that's just one more...

Asus seemed to have delivered well on their promise. They’ve created a device which gives you the best of both worlds, something we’ve long been waiting for. However, they seemed to have gotten carried away a bit with the success, which reflects in the...

Review Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 Tablet/MID

Androidbook. With the Eee Tab TF101, Asus hopes reap the benefits of both notebooks and tablets. The concept of an Android tablet with an optional keyboard dock to transform it into a laptop has been around since at least the last Cebit trade fair. But...

Attractive Case Design ; Various Ports on Keyboard Dock ; Good Screen ; Runs Silently ; Office Software Included

Reflective Screen ; No 3G/UMTS Available Yet

That this concept is only now taking off

Asus Transformer Book TX300C

No one has yet come up with the perfect Windows 8 laptop-tablet hybrid, despite dozens of attempts between late last year and now. The powerful Asus Transformer Book, however, comes pretty close, adding several premium features that are on my wish list.

The Asus Transformer Book TX300 is a rare hybrid with a Core i7 CPU, a high-res screen, and smart dual hard drives -- there's an SSD in the tablet half, and a larger hard drive in the keyboard base.

The system is awkwardly top-heavy, and you feel as if you're fighting the touch pad at every turn.

Asus adds a lot of what I've been looking for in a hybrid to the Transformer Book, but no one has yet really nailed the perfect laptop/tablet combo.

ASUS Transformer Book

The ASUS Transformer Book TX300 offers a premium design, a full HD detachable display and great battery life, but it's on the heavy side.

Handsome design; Gorgeous 1080p display; Solid performance; Long battery life

Heavy for 13-inch notebook; System heats up easily; Subpar webcam

Click to EnlargeASUS' Transformer Book TX300 is a powerful tablet and solid notebook in one. Its display is gorgeous, its industrial design is sexy and its keyboard is comfy. Throw in the Transformer Book's all-day battery life, and you're looking at...

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 review

Back in the fall of 2007, ASUS decided there was room in people's lives for a highly portable, secondary computer that could handle basic tasks — surfing the web, checking email, listening to music, and playing games. That was...

Entire package is affordable ; Great quality display ; Over 13 hours of battery life when paired with the dock ; Comfortable keyboard

Overly plasticy construction ; Tablet is longer than others ; Poor camera quality

At $399, the Transformer is the most affordable Honeycomb tablet out there, and even beyond that, it’s actually one of the best

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Review

ASUS has been plugging away at tablets for years now, experimenting with convertible netbooks and trying to coax some semblance of finger-friendliness out of Windows. It's taken Android 3.0 Honeycomb and the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 to actually...

Whether Samsung’s slimline form-factors and custom software on the incoming Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Galaxy Tab 8.9 will outweigh the Eee Pad’s keyboard (and the extra runtime the battery in that allows), or whether the HTC Flyer’s active stylus will be...

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer

A convenient keyboard dock, sleek design, and aggressively low price make the Eee Pad Transformer our favorite Wi-Fi-only Honeycomb tablet.

We give ASUS a lot of credit for the Eee Pad Transformer TF10, which beats the Lenovo U1 Hybrid to market as the first Android tablet that connects to a keyboard dock. In addition to making typing easier, the Transformer's $149 dock adds a battery life...

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer (32GB, Wi-Fi)

At $350, the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is one of the lowest priced full-sized, Android 4.0-upgradable tablets. Also, its high-quality screen and relatively cheap keyboard/dock make it an attractive option.

A few things keep the Transformer from completely blowing us away: the choppy recording and playback of the camcorder; its sharp edges; a build quality that's somewhat lacking; and problems that arise when docking.

The Asus Eee Pad Transformer is a low-price, quality Android tablet with useful options.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Review

ASUS was at the forefront of the netbook revolution thanks to its close partnerships with Intel and Microsoft. ASUS has been all but absent from the smartphone and tablet revolution again, because of its two key partnerships: Intel and Microsoft. Both...

ASUS delivered three things with the Eee Pad: a very competitive price point ($399), a surprisingly useful (albeit pricey) dock, and a good display. The price point alone is enough to make the Eee Pad the Honeycomb tablet to get assuming you don't need...
