We can’t make our minds up if this is more tablet than laptop or vice versa, but we can be sure of is that this is a great all round piece of kit that also looks the part. It’s packing one of the best keyboard docks we’ve seen and is supremely powerful thanks to the quad-core architecture. Read more ...

dissapointed
My second problem, and my major issue is with Asus itself. When I received my tablet I immediately found that my gyroscope was glitchy, would work some times but not others, required constant reboots. I figured it was a hardware malfunction. Read more ...
PROSIts fast as promised, is butter smooth on ICS, has some useful apps which are provided by Asus, like the polaris office app. its got a beautiful screen and plays games very fluidly, played some vendetta online very smoothly with it
CONSFirst of on the tablet design and hardware only 1 thing. I found the power/wake button to be a bit to small and difficult to find since it is located on the top side facing away from the screen
