What customers don't like about Asus ZenPad 7.0 Z370C (1GB + 8GB)

  • Frequent lag and stuttering during multitasking or switching between apps.
  • Poor battery life, with many users reporting only 3–6 hours of active use.
  • Underwhelming performance for gaming; struggles with graphics-intensive titles.
  • Cameras produce grainy, low-quality images that lack detail, especially in low light.
  • Significant amount of pre-installed 'bloatware' that consumes internal storage and cannot be easily uninstalled.
  • Slow charging times and a lack of fast-charging capabilities.

Verdict

The Asus ZenPad 7.0 Z370C is an entry-level 7-inch tablet featuring a 1280 x 800 IPS display with Tru2Life technology and a fashion-inspired 'clutch' design with interchangeable back covers. Powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Intel Atom x3-C3200 processor with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of expandable internal storage, the device includes a 5MP rear camera, a 0.3MP front camera, and a front-facing speaker with DTS-HD audio. Main pros include its lightweight 272g build, bright high-definition screen with wide viewing angles, and unique modular accessory support for audio and power covers. However, significant cons include frequent performance lag during multitasking due to limited RAM, a slow screen-rotation engine, and substantial pre-installed bloatware that further restricts the already small storage capacity.
