Asus Transformer Prime Review

64 GB (TF201)     See other variants reviews Score: 56.3 / 100

Asus Transformer Prime is a mid-end Android portable tablet launched in 2011, provisioned with an 8 megapixels back-facing camera, an enormous 10.1 inches multi-touch screen and a 1300 megahertz Quad-Core processor. We will get a better understanding of this tablet's wonders when we get into more details.

This tablet comes with an exceptional 1.3 gigahertz Quad-Core CPU, included in the NVIDIA Tegra 3 chip and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit low for a tablet of this level. The Asus Transformer Prime counts with an excellent 64 GB internal storage and an external memory card slot, enough to install hundreds of apps and even the heaviest games available nowadays without worrying about running out of space at all.

Although this tablet is just 10.35" long, it's able to fit a a 10.1 inches display. This tablet is very thin and practical, while it's not close to being one of the thinnest devices out there, with a thickness of 0.41". The Asus Transformer Prime feels a bit heavy comparing with today standards, weighting 20.67 ounces.

Asus equipped the Asus Transformer Prime with a good 10.1-inches screen, and a 800 x 1280 resolution, making everything look quite nice. Its screen uses Super IPS+ LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

The Asus Transformer Prime has wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot). The Asus Transformer Prime doesn't use a sim card, because it's not a GSM enabled portable tablet.

This tablet is equipped with only an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera. It is also able to film videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 fps. To complete the camera, it also features flash and auto-focus.

This device also includes a couple of nice characteristics such as Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and a few sensors likeLight Sensor, Accelerometer and Gyroscope.

This tablet is priced about 700 dollars, expensive for a portable tablet this level. This tablet is the correct option for you if you will use it mainly for social networks.
