It’s been a while since we’ve been treated to an ASUS Transformer tablet, but it is back with a vengeance here at Computex 2013.
Ladies and gentlemen, what we have here today is the New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity. The Android 4.2 Jelly Bean-equipped New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity is the first in its family to feature the 1.9Ghz NVIDIA Tegra 4 Processor with Quad-core ARM Cortex A15 CPU and 72 Core GeForce GPU. With firepower like that, there’s no doubt that it’ll raise tablet performance benchmarks just that little bit higher. Those who were impressed with the HD visuals found on previous ASUS Transformer Pads will be blown away with what the New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity brings to the party. It features a 10.1-inch LED backlit, 178-degree wide view angle, IPS + display to deliver vivid visuals in all their WQXGA 2560 × 1600 glory.Accurate and responsive onscreen control happens through the capacitive touch panel with 10-finger multitouch; while SonicMaster-enhanced audio is on hand to complete a fully-immersive mobile gaming and entertainment experience.
If that’s not enough for you, ASUS Miracast streaming lets you play games on your TV; or stream movies and YouTube videos through DLNA technology.There is also a 5-megapixel, f/2.4 aperture rear-facing camera with autofocus and a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera. ASUS Camera 3.0 has no shutter lag and lets you shoot stills while recording 1080p videos; there’s also an option to shoot HDR images and “Beautification” photo editing features. It’s not an ASUS Transformer if it doesn’t do what it says on the box so the New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity comes with a redesigned 254mm Qwerty chiclet keyboard dock that now features a multitouch pad, USB 3.0 for a mouse or game controller, as well as an SDXC card reader. A 36-pin connection aids in charging as well as syncing data with a PC. A 19Wh Li-polymer battery built into the pad adds an extra 3.5 hours to the New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity’s already impressive 10-hour battery life.
