A few things keep the Transformer from completely blowing us away
The choppy recording and playback of the camcorder
Abstract: The Eee Pad Transformer is aptly named; there's more to this thing than meets the eye. Asus is the first to market with a tablet that pulls double-duty, attempting to replace your notebook, too. We put it through the paces to see how it really stacks u...
On the whole the tablet is the best yet produced to feature Android. It's not going to take down the iPad in it's prime. There is enough jazz to keep you coming back to it if you choose and for some it will give the iPad a bit of a sideswipe. Obviously...
We were surprised by the Asus Eee Pad Transformer; it’s easy to shrug it off as a desperate attempt at marrying an Android tablet the the keyboard-based convenience of a netbook. But it charms, and is a great standalone tablet - more stylish and stable...
Starting off with the build quality the Transformer is a device which is not only unique in styling but put together well and with great attention to detail. Despite being made of plastic it feels robust and solid with a high quality which extends to ...
By far the best bit about the Eee Pad Transformer is the design. If you don't have the keyboard attached, you'd never know it was different from any other tablet. When you do hook up the keyboard, it looks like any other mini laptop, save for a slightly bulkier but incredibly tough aluminium hinge that also acts as the dock. The keyboard is excellent considering the compact size, with the palm re
Although the Eee Pad Transformer is one of our favourite tablets to date, it's not without issues. The Android operating system is arguably the biggest glitch – it's good, but it's not as impressive as the iOS operating system found on the iPad 2. At times, it can be unintuitive to use, and still feels better suited to smartphones than tablets. That said, although some features weren't where we e
The Transformer is the perfect tablet for more than one type of user. It's great if you're just looking for a well made gadget, for example, as it's small, robust and packed with features. If you're yet to be convinced by tablets, however, the Transfor...
Abstract: Android 3.0 hasn't really set the world on fire as yet, but with the launch of the Asus Eee Pad Transformer tablet, things are certainly going in the right direction. We decided to grab ourselves a Transformer to give it a full going over and find out ...
General screen quality and colour fidelity, Finally, a full onscreen keyboard!, Highquality finish but harsh, angular edges, Polaris Office for work docs and My Cloud for VPN, Good web browsing
Honeycomb feels as empty as ever and puts a bit of a damper on things, Viewing angles aren't as good as expected for an IPS screen, Propitiatory port / not many connections / poorquality camera, A bit slow with heavyweight games and the OS sometimes lags,
Superb keyboard; excellent docking mechanism; good battery life,
A few minor design niggles.
Those few design niggles aside, the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is the best Android tablet we've seen to date. The bundled keyboard is what really makes the package versatile. Unlike other tablets we've seen so far, we have no trouble in believing some pe...
