The editors liked
Highresolution camera
Very fast
Helpful keyboard shortcuts
Incredible build quality
Battery life
Excellent design and aesthetics
Keyboard dock is a great add-on
Slick software and good performance
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 detail
This is an excellent tablet for anyone who wants a lot of processor grunt
Great graphics and Android 4.0. It's light in the hand and is packed with a lot of unique features.
Super IPS+ screen is gorgeous. Lovely design. Tegra 3 performs very well. Decent battery life
Excellent expansion options
Very well built
Outstanding battery life
The editors didn't like
GPS Signal
WiFi connectivity
Occasional bugs
Very top-heavy when docked
No 3G
Poor GPS performance
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
When attached to the keyboard dock it is a tad heavy. It's also pricey but if you want a BMW over a V8 Holden you have to pay for the privilege
It’s no different with tablets.
No SIM slot. Panoramic photography isn't what it's cracked up to be. Android still has a lot of work to do to become a good desktop experience. Not everything is optimised for quad core. The TF700T is coming
Excellent design and aesthetics, Keyboard dock is a great add-on, Slick software and good performance
Very top-heavy when docked, No 3G, Poor GPS performance
If you don't want an iPad, the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime is the tablet you do want. It has a great design, a nifty keyboard dock, slick, up-to-date software and great performance. The lack of 3G is a pain and there are a couple of other issues that n...

This morning I sat in on a conference with ASUS about their upcoming Tegra 3-based Transformer Prime tablet. The event covered everything you and I need to know about the tablet, as well as a few surprises. First off, the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Pr...
Abstract: I'm going to come clean to you guys/girls. I have had tablets for the past 2-3 years and for the first few years, I really never put them to use. I found them to be cumbersome, slow, and there just wasn't enough reason to use them. Frankly I could do it ...
Weighing up the specifications, we would have expected the Surface to win more rounds, especially considering how new it is and that it won't be available until Autumn. This gives us reason to suspect that Microsoft might launch an outdated product. Th...
I'm not going to call on overall winner here, because I don't think it's fair to name one "better" than the other. Much like with smartphones, the way each individual uses their tablet constitutes which one is the "best" one for them, and both of these...
Abstract: 659Pros: Good battery life; good number of ports and buttons.Cons: Medium performance; no biometrics. We liked that the ThinkPad had 64G of hard drive space. Its 1G of memory was the average amount for those we looked at this time around, so that is ...

There is no doubt in my mind which tablet is better among these competitors. Apple's iPad 3 is more attractive, a bit easier to handle, offers a significantly superior display and far better battery endurance. Using the iPad 3 is simply more enjoyable for...
Abstract: and ErgonomicsAsus clearly listened to user complaints about the flimsy exposed ports on the Transformer Prime, so the new Transformer Pad TF300 has more support around the port area (less curve at the edges where the ports live). The power button is mad...
