  • Stunning Super IPS+ display

  • 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
  • Fastest Android tablet we've tested yet
  • Materials and worksmanship
  • Super thin at. 33"
  • Beautiful
  • Bright display with Super IPS+ Mode
  • 32GB model at $499 is $100 cheaper than a similarly equipped iPad 2
  • Very fast
  • First quad-core tablet

  • Durable with spun metal finish
  • Keyboard dock adds a lot of function
  • The Asus Transformer Prime sports an iPad 2-inspired design that's even thinner and nearly as light

  • And the 8-megapixel camera captures detail

The editors didn't like

  • Not a lot of software optimized for quad-core CPU
  • Occasional hiccups and stuttersKeyboard on dock is less than perfect
  • GPS and WiFi woes
  • Weak
  • Quiet audio
  • Tiny power button
  • Not readable in direct sunlight
  • Some bugs
  • Honeycomb lacks both apps and a good app store
  • Keyboard’s trackpad is over sensitive
  • Not much quad-core optimised software yetLook and Feel...
  • No dedicated USB port
  • Only one speaker
  • No Android 4.0 face-recognition feature
  • 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
  • Only one speaker port
  • Slightly warm color balance for the display
  • GPS signal issues
  • Keys on dock are shallow
  • Camera captures washed out images
  • Weighting when docked takes getting used to
  • 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
  • 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
  • Poor app selection and quality
  • Software isn't completely optimized for the faster processor
  • Browser performance can be sluggish
  • Weak GPS signal strength
  • Soso video recording & photo quality
  • Still not quite a laptop replacement
  • Keyboard could be better
  • Not all ICS features are available
  • GPS only works sporadically
  • No 3G/UMTS

  • The ASUS Transformer Prime is without a doubt the finest Android tablet to date, and barring those with an addiction to having what they call the “widest” or “finest” app collection in the land, I’ve got no qualms with calling this the highest quality...

  • Abstract:  Take one of the more popular -- if not wonderfully eccentric -- Android tablets of 2011, slim it down, clad it in brushed metal, pump it full of new specs and march it off into 2012 with the likelihood of one of the first upgrades to Android 4.0 Ice Cr...

  • Assuming the WiFi and minor dock issue I encountered aren't widespread (ASUS insists they aren't), I am comfortable calling the Eee Pad Transformer Prime the absolute best Android tablet on the market today. The hardware looks and feels great. ASUS picked...
