ASUS MeMo Pad 7 and MeMo Pad FHD 10 Tablets Launched At Computex 2013

Computex, Taiwan has made sure that gadgets enthusiasts get a wider choice of products. So continuing our focus on ASUS and confirming last week rumors, Let’s check out the two Android tablets from ASUS one by one.

MeMO Pad HD 7

This 7inch tablet runs the slightly older Android 4.0 on an ARM Cortex A7 quad-core CPU with 1GB of RAM. The 7 inch display has a resolution of 1280x800 pixels with IPS to provide 170 degree viewing angles. For photography it comes with a 1.2 MP front camera and an optional 5 MP rear camera on high end models. Keeping up with times the tablet comes with stereo speakers with ASUS SonicMaster audio technology for an added punch. ASUS is also claiming that the lithium polymer battery (mAh unspecified) will be able to provide 10 hours 720p video playback. Taking lessons from the drawbacks of the Nexus 7, ASUS has provided a microSD slot and micro USB socket this time. The models will be available in 8GB and 16GB capacity with a price tag of 129 USD (7,315 INR) and 149 USD (8,450 INR) from July 2013 respectively in four colour variants of black, white, pink and green. Users will also be getting 16GB ASUS WebStorage free for one year.

ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10

The latest addition to the MeMo Pad series is the ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10. This 10 inch Android 4.2 Jelly Bean tablet runs on a 1.6 Intel Atom Z2560 (Clover Trail+) with 2GB RAM. As the name FHD suggests, it has a Full HD IPS display of 1920 x 1200 pixels capable of HD playback and HD video recording with help of its 5MP rear camera. On the front it comes with a 1.2 MP snapper. The 9.5 mm thick tablet is powered by a 25Wh battery capable of providing 10 hours of 720p video playback. Connectivity options include 802.11a/b/g/n, GPS and GLONASS navigation. The ‘micro-weave finish’ of the product is complemented by its four color variants of Royal Blue, Silk White, and Vivid Pink. The product will be available in 16 GB or 32 GB models at an undisclosed price from September 2013. The company also throws in a 5GB of free lifetime ASUS WebStorage.

MeMO Pad Accessories
To add value to the above two devices, ASUS also unveiled two covers. A TransCover for both the devices acts like a prop up stand for the tablet and a Persona Cover only for the 7 inch MeMo Pad to act as a back cover.
