Asus VivoTab Smart ME400C

The Asus VivoTab Smart ME400C is aimed at the budget shopper who wants a full Windows 8 slate tablet, but it won't replace your laptop.

Relatively cheap. Multiple colors available. Windows 8. Decent battery life

Cheap plastic construction. Wimpy speakers. Limited port selection requires adapters for usability. Accessories, like cover and keyboard, not yet available

If there's one area that Windows tablets have failed, it's in giving the budget-conscious shopper something worth buying. Even lower-powered tablets and laptop/tablet hybrids are priced like a full-featured ultrabook, while failing to deliver...

Review Asus VivoTab Smart ME400C Tablet

The compatible one. No matter whether iOS, Android or Windows RT, all operating systems have their quirks when it comes to the compatibility with the standard Windows 7 or Windows 8 versions. Asus' VivoTab Smart might eliminate these restrictions owing...

Bright, viewing angle stable and high-contrast screen ; Good touch features with reliable feedback ; Good battery life ; Far-reaching Windows compatibility

Fiddly micro interfaces ; Hardware button with moderate feedback ; Partly outdated performance for Windows 8

That many tablet tasks are implemented smoothly and it doesn't need to shy away from comparison with the established competition in many aspects. There is a backlog in the MS Store, where the current offer - putting it kindly - is very small

Steal of a Deal

Arrived in a plain brown box, just the tablet and charger. Not an issue for me as I grabbed the owners manual PDF online. Plugged in, charged up, updated itself with a minor (and well known) App Store glitch. Runs fast, great hardware and with my...

Affordable, plenty of memory, plenty of performance

Having to use Windows 8.1, no extra goodies

This tablet

Tablet has a fare amount of ram. Very stable with the operating system. The price for this item is great especially for a 1.8 gig dual core.

The graphics car needs a driver up date badly. Not having a USB plug in is very inconvenient. Had to but a blue tooth key board and mouse to go with it.

Love it.

Processor seems zippy (not to be confused with fast). This is replacing my 7 year old laptop and so far I'm very happy. The battery last most of the day under heavy use and it is light as a feather

I had bought a transleeve but had to return it. I think the magnets in my Tab were installed wrong. I like Windows 8 just not there app browser. The one on the desktop is great
