Specifications
The device runs the operating system Android 4.1.1 (codename: Jelly Bean).[1] Features of the tablet include a 7-inch IPS LCD display, 1 GHz single-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor, 1 GB of RAM and 1 MP rear camera.[1] The tablet has approximately a 7-hour battery life.[6]
Reception
- PC Magazine compared the Asus to the Amazon Kindle Fire as a "solid alternative" but would not recommend the tablet for more that surfing the web and reading books. Disappointing battery life also hurt the tablets ratings.[7]
- CNET also rated the Asus poorly, citing system crashes while playing games, poor battery life and is uncomfortable to hold.[8]
