  • Noticeable lag and performance issues, especially when multitasking or managing large libraries of media.
  • Dearth of tablet-specific Android apps that take full advantage of the high-resolution screen.
  • Proprietary charging and data connector prevents the use of standard micro-USB cables.

Verdict

The Asus Transformer Pad Infinity 700 3G is a 10.1-inch tablet featuring a high-resolution Super IPS+ display with 1920 x 1200 pixels and 600 nits of brightness. This specific variant is equipped with 1GB of DDR3 RAM and 32GB of internal flash storage, powered by an NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor clocked at up to 1.6GHz. Key characteristics include its premium 8.5mm thin metallic design, a 2MP front camera, and an 8MP rear camera with an f/2.2 aperture and LED flash. Its primary pros are the exceptionally sharp screen protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2, compatibility with a dedicated keyboard dock that nearly doubles battery life to 16 hours, and integrated 3G/GPS connectivity for mobile use. However, notable cons include occasional performance stutters due to slow internal storage speeds, limited RAM for heavy multitasking by modern standards, and a single mono speaker that can be easily muffled by the user's hand.
