ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime review

 

Is there any tablet that's hotter than the Transformer Prime right now? (Please, don't say the Kindle Fire.) For weeks we geeks, early adopters and

Great battery life ; Thin, light, high-end design ; Solid performance ; Good value

Occasional hiccups and stutters ; Keyboard on dock is less than perfect

The Transformer Prime is the best Android tablet of the moment, hands down.

Review: Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

 

The Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime is the first quad-core tablet on the market and the first running Android 4.0, aka Ice Cream Sandwich. It...

The first quad-core tablet, and the first with Ice Cream Sandwich. So powerful, you won’t believe it until you use it. Outstanding for games. Interface enhancements are the shot in the arm Android needs. Price is good for what you get

Wi-Fi only. 40-pin connector for charging instead of USB. Keyboard dock is pricey. Dock is lighter than tablet, making the assembly top-heavy and causing stability problems. Keyboard’s trackpad has issues

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime review

 

Also, we changed the Prime's review text to reflect the Android 4.0 update the tablet received in January 2012. Check out this exhaustive interview with Asus detailing -- and putting into perspective -- some of the Prime's technical issues.

The Asus Transformer Prime sports an iPad 2-inspired design that's even thinner and nearly as light, while also managing to include microSD and Micro-HDMI support. The Prime delivers smooth and clear 1080p video, and the 8-megapixel camera captures...

Not every game takes advantage of the quad-core CPU, and frame rates can suffer as a result. When connected to the dock keyboard, the tablet is top-heavy and can easily slide off a lap or table if you're not careful.

The Asus Transformer Prime is the best full-featured Android tablet yet, with a sexy design, thoughtful features, and an impressive camera.

ASUS Transformer Prime Review

 

Welcome to the next generation of Android tablets - where the year 2011 has been dominated utterly by the dual-core processor by the name of Tegra 2, so too does NVIDIA hold the next keys to the kingdom with the quad-core processor Tegra 3 , and this...

The ASUS Transformer Prime is without a doubt the finest Android tablet to date, and barring those with an addiction to having what they call the “widest” or “finest” app collection in the land, I’ve got no qualms with calling this the highest quality...

Asus Transformer Prime Review

 

Perhaps, it's the allure of being the very first to feature the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor, or maybe that it's one of the few devices to offer the most up-to-date Android experience in Ice Cream Sandwich, whatever it is, the Asus Transformer...
