We have been hearing rumors that Asus are getting ready to launch the second generation Asus Eee Pad Transformer tablet, which was rumored to be called the Transformer 2. It is now official, and it will be called the Asus Transformer Prime.
The Asus Transformer Prime will come with NVIDIA’s new quad-core Kal-El processor, the NVIDIA Tegra 3. This powerful processor is expected to deliver significant performance improvements over its predecessors, making the Transformer Prime one of the most advanced tablets on the market. The device will feature a 10.1-inch display, providing users with a large and vibrant screen for all their multimedia needs. Additionally, the Transformer Prime will include a detachable keyboard, allowing it to function both as a tablet and a laptop. When undocked from the keyboard, the tablet part will measure just 8.3mm thick, making it sleek and portable.
Advanced Features and Connectivity
Other specifications on the Asus Transformer Prime include mini HDMI and a full USB port, which will enhance its connectivity options. These ports will allow users to easily connect the tablet to external displays and other USB devices, making it a versatile tool for both work and play. The inclusion of these ports is a significant advantage for users who need to transfer data or connect to various peripherals.
It isn’t clear as yet which version of Android the Transformer Prime will run. It could possibly ship with Honeycomb, although Asus’s Jonney Shih mentioned that Android Ice Cream Sandwich should be out on their existing devices by the end of the year or sooner. Therefore, there is a possibility that the Transformer Prime may ship with Android 4.0, offering users the latest features and improvements in the Android operating system.
Anticipated Release and Expectations
Hopefully, we will get some sort of official press release from Asus around the 9th of November, with the full specifications and some decent photos. This announcement is highly anticipated by tech enthusiasts and potential buyers who are eager to see what the Transformer Prime has to offer. The combination of the NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, the 10.1-inch display, and the detachable keyboard makes the Transformer Prime a compelling option in the tablet market.
As soon as we get some more information, we will let you guys know. In the meantime, the anticipation continues to build for what promises to be one of the most exciting tablet releases of the year. The Asus Transformer Prime is expected to set new standards in performance and versatility, making it a must-have device for tech-savvy consumers.
