Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF201 Tablet

Available at about 26k+tax in us(with international warranty, but not works in inda). What asus India was dreaming about, when they were puting such a high price tag in inda. First they are launched it 2 months late and now at this price tag when ipad3 is out. In short fail asus-India. Thumbs down. Asus India grow up and come out of your dream world. Android tabs got no option's other than to offer better hardware specs against iOS tab, which is aka iPad. Android need to cover long distance to come even near to the iOS. It's like picking up Ubuntu(free) or windows(paid and costly) for desktop, it doesn't matter how much you try to resist in the end you always want to come back to windows. Same on tabs iOS is the best os for now. Only obstacle is that, can you afford the hardware and accept to live with the limitations forced by apple?

This must be the Tf201/Transformer Prime.
Asus didnt launch the TF101 32gb model in India. The 16gb model is available for 30k. 16k extra for 16gb more when it has a microSD slot in the tablet and an additional SD slot on the keyboard with 2 usb ports makes no sense.

If it is the Transformer Prime, then its a fantastic tablet, but 46k is still very pricey.

The rating/ 5 star is for the tablet, not the price. Both the original TF101 with tegra2 and TF201 with Tegra3 are great android tablets. The best if you need the extra battery life and productivity of the keyboard.

If you all know this is the best Android tablets around. It is simply amazing with superb performance. But the people at Asus were in such a hurry they messed it all up. It has a tragic release story in the US and same was in India.

Tagged at an MRP of 50,000 anyone would go for a fully functional netbook rather than this.

Biggest tragedy was the Wi-Fi and GPS issues. Since there are two Wi-Fi antennas and one GPS antenna it should have a strong signal. But it's opposite, it hardly picks up any signal. Major Flaw.
The problem went so out of control go and check Asus Global website they have removed GPS as a feature from the specifications section. And they think to sell a flawed tablet at such a price.

In short if you have money flowing in and are okay with missing GPS and crippled wi-fi then go for it.

Hi Guys.........
this is tf201 not tf101 and it has a Nvidia Tegra 3 Quad Core Processor....... not 1gz but 1.2 approx.... it has a super ips panel display.......which is currently better than ipad2 also...
ready to be updated to android vs4.0 out of the box.... very good for replacing a laptop... but very expensive and no docking station provided.....which means another 5000 bucks for it.............. also no 3g..... so pls think and buy..... coz half a lakh matters a lot........

First of all flipkart guys have posted the images of tf101 instead of prime tf201..:(
For the price mentioned it should be the 64gb model but again the description says that, it is the 32gb one...:(
