Excellent design and aesthetics

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.

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

WiFi only. 40pin connector for charging instead of USB. Keyboard dock is pricey. Dock is lighter than tablet, making the assembly topheavy and causing stability problems. Keyboard's trackpad has issues
After updating the Asus Transformer Prime to ICS, we took a look at how the device compared to other tablets, as well as our previous set of scores with the Prime running Honeycomb (Android 3.2), by running a few common benchmarks that are currently av...
PerformanceThe Prime is the first tablet on the North American market to offer the Tegra 3 system-on-a-chip. Popularly advertised as a quad-core chip, it's actually a five-core chip consisting of four primary cores and a fifth low-power core. The purpose...
The Transformer Prime shows how Android tablets could and should be built. And this tablet actually lives up to the hype as far as speed and performance goes. It's easily the fastest Android tablet out there, and may well be faster than the iPad 2—though
Sponsored, The big ding is that it's still running Honeycomb. While the Tegra 3 over-powers Honeycomb's speed problems with obscene processing power, it's still not a very intuitive UI, The most glaring design flaw is the speaker. Yes, speaker. Singular
Yes. If you know you dont want an iPad 2. That is, if you know you want an Android tablet. This is the one to buy. Its the best constructed, fastest Android tablet out there. The only people who should hesitate are those who dont want to be confined to...
The Transformer Prime is quite an upgrade over the original, and Asus knows it. Rather than selling the new model at a discount like the old one, Asus is charging $500 for the base config. Of course, that system offers 32GB of internal storage—the $500 i...
Abstract: and ErgonomicsRaise your hand if you think the iPad 2 and even the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 are really, really pretty but impractical from an ergonomics standpoint. Unfortunately, Asus followed those two manufacturers designs, and made a really thin and s...
Abstract: The ASUS Transformer Prime is the first of the next generation Android tablets, packing the brand new quad-core Tegra 3 chip and offering a boatload of performance while managing the battery life. We've sort of fell in love with it because of it's thi...
In a victory that should surprise pretty much nobody, the Prime takes it in a landslide. In fact, the Prime suffers losses against the TF in just two minor ways: speakers (only one, and it's in a bad place), and the number of USB ports (one versus the ...
I stand by my original conclusion to our Eee Pad Transformer Prime review—this thing is definitely the best Android tablet on the market and it cements ASUS' image as being a company that is good at both engineering and design.I also stand by my conclusio...
