Asus Transformer Pad 300

“Obviously, we like that the Asus Transformer Pad 300 boasts a price point that’s $100 less than the cream of the crop Transformer Prime – without sacrificing on the hardware. Frankly, many people will find some value in that, especially when it packs the same Android experience and quad-core processor as its fully equipped sibling. However, if money isn’t a concern with your budget, we’d still recommend picking up the Transformer Prime either way, primarily for its impeccable design, and the fact that it’s still the benchmark Android tablet to beat.”

“The Transformer Pad 300 offers an attractive package for a reasonable price. £399 will get you 32GB of storage and the keyboard dock thrown in too. The excellent selection of ports, decent screen, competent performance and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich round-off a solid effort from Asus.”

“Asus made a clever decision with the Transformer tablets: it made two tablets at two distinctly different price points, but the differences between the two are small enough that most people won't notice. The people who don't know or care about the difference between 35 and 60 nits of brightness or between a 1.2 and 1.4GHz Tegra 3 processor will likely buy the Transformer Pad, because it's cheaper. Those who want the best of the best will spend a little more and buy the Transformer Prime.At a slightly lower price point the Transformer Pad would be an incredible steal, but even at $379 it's a great deal for what is really a great tablet. It performs and looks better than the $399 Galaxy Tab 2 or the $449 Acer Iconia Tab A510, and the keyboard dock is a huge advantage as well. To be fair, it's still a hard sell over the iPad 2, which now sells for $399, just because Apple's tablet app ecosystem is so superior to Google's. Asus does have the keyboard docks on its side, though, and Apple's many similar options don't measure up to the ease of use and tight integration.Don't buy the Transformer Pad to replace your laptop — it won't. And don't buy it for its selection of tablet apps, because Android still lags iOS in that department. But if you want an Android tablet and don't need the very best specs money can buy, the Transformer Pad is a great choice.”

“The Asus TF300T is easily one of the best tablet devices I have had the pleasure of using. The UI, the hardware, and the keyboard dock all solidify the TF300T as a top contender for today’s tablet race.”
