Asus transformer prime where to purchase
Is it worth it? I'd say so -- provided, of course, that you're able to justify dropping that kind of dough. The Prime trumps pretty much every other tablet on the market today in terms of performance and potential.
And it's sleek and gorgeous, to boot. In my review, I make the following comparison:. For that extra 50 bucks, you're getting twice the processing power, twice the internal storage, and significantly better battery life. You're also getting native support for microSD and micro-HDMI connections -- and you aren't even sacrificing a thin and sexy form. As for the iPad vs.
Yeah -- Apple premium pricing and rest-of-the-world premium pricing don't always match up. So ultimately, my buying advice is this: If you want an Android tablet and can justify the price, go for the Transformer Prime.
UI and widgets: The first thing we noticed is that the lock screen now allows you to go straight into the camera app if you want, making the prospect of getting a shot of that supercool thing that's happening right now a bit more likely. On the home screen, Google has slightly changed the way we access widgets.
Honeycomb had a little shortcut at the top of the screen, or you could press and hold the home screen, but now widgets have been grouped with apps. Tapping the apps shortcut now brings you to a dual apps and widgets section, each with its own tab. Also, swiping through your apps will eventually bring you to widgets. This change is subtle; widgets now feel less hidden and more important than before because of it. One of the most annoying things about Honeycomb notifications is the way they can pile up, requiring you to close each individual one to get rid of them.
Fortunately, ICS lets you kill them all in one fell swoop and let the tablet gods sort it out. Also, instead of simply showing you the last message you've received, ICS consolidates all mail notifications into one, displaying the number of new messages you have. Settings: With settings you'll notice right off the bat that things are subtly different, with no real huge changes, just a few useful refinements.
Options have now been split into four sections: Wireless and networks, Device, Personal, and System. Some features that were crammed in with others in Honeycomb now have their own sections. The Data usage section details the amount of overall and per-app data you've downloaded over a specific time. Battery now has its own section showing more-detailed power usage information than we're used to on Honeycomb and even tracks battery capacity over a set duration.
Adding a new Google account now gives you options as soon as its created as to which specific Google services you want synced. The Developer options allow you to access things like CPU usage, pointer location, and, my personal favorite, the ability to kill apps as soon as you leave them. Performance and new features: We didn't notice much difference between ICS and Honeycomb in terms of performance.
Previously we experienced no problems with GPS performance and this hasn't changed with the update, although that may have more to do with our office location. Unfortunately, Web browsing is still noticeably slower than on the iPad. The built-in photo-editing tool is probably the most significant new feature. Options include crop, resize, red-eye, as well plenty of color and tint controls.
Additionally, recent apps can now be closed with just a quick side swipe, allowing you to more easily find and kill memory hogs. ICS feels like a small but significant step up from Honeycomb, and we're looking forward to seeing it on more tablets in the next few months.
Performance While the Prime's IPS screen was immediately clear and sharp when first we powered it on, it was the screen transitions that really impressed us. The first time we tapped the Apps button, we were treated to a noticeably higher frame rate transition than on any previous Android tablet. We hoped this fluidity would carry over to apps like Marvel Comics, but that was not the case.
Reading a comic through the app on the iPad 2 is still a considerably smoother experience, but this may have something to do with specific optimizations of the iPad app. It also has a full-size USB 3. And there's a micro SD card reader for even more mobile convenience. Connecting on the go has never been easier. Learn more about Universal Dock.

He stated, well I can order you one from the warehouse. I asked him how since it seems we cannot order online and he asked did it say "In Store Only" I told him yes. He said he can order it so he checked the warehouse and it seems they had some in stock so he ordered me one.
