Asus Transformer Prime Review

32 GB (TF201)     See other variants reviews Score: 54.8 / 100

Asus Transformer Prime is a good quality tablet released in 2011, featuring an enormous 10.1" multi touch capacitive screen, an 8 megapixels back side camera and a very powerful Quad-Core processor ticking at 1300 MHz. We will get a better understanding of this tablet's features when we get into more details.

Asus ships this device with a very fast Quad-Core processing unit clocking at 1300 megahertz, bundled in a NVIDIA Tegra 3 system chip and only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little poor for such a powerful tablet device. The Asus Transformer Prime counts with a impressive 32 GB internal storage memory and a slot for external memory cards, allowing you to install hundreds of applications and even the heaviest games available nowadays without thinking about running out of space at all.

This device's thickness (0.41") is a bit far from current standards, but it still feels quite right in the user's hand. Though this tablet is only 10.35" long, it still manages to contain a 10.1 inches screen. Asus didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 20.67 ounces device.

The Asus Transformer Prime only features an 8 MP back-facing camera. This tablet can also shoot Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 frames per second. The camera also has auto-focus and flash.

This device has a interesting 10.1-inches display with a 800 x 1280 resolution, which makes all photos and movies look nice. This display uses Super IPS+ LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

The Asus Transformer Prime includes wi-fi capability (but it can't be shared with other devices around, acting as a router or modem). This tablet doesn't have a SIM card, because it is not a GSM device.

This tablet also includes some nice features like Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and GPS Navigation, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Accelerometer and Gyroscope.

This device is priced around $ 349, not a good offer for comparing with other similar tablets.
