So far, the Android tablet market by ARM "System on a Chip" processors dominated the maker Qualcomm, MediaTek, NVIDIA and others. But now the largest chipmaker Intel has with the Bay Trail processors such as the built-in ME176CX 64-bit quad-core processor Z3745 secured impressive a place in this market. Despite the low price of the built-in CPU ME176CX is superior from a performance point of far more expensive tablets. To win the ME176CX in almost all benchmarks significantly compared to the Nexus 7 (2013). The same CPU comes in Convertibles under a full-fledged Windows 8 for use. There are "only" 1 GB RAM available, but for me this totally rich. 2GB could be in special situations advantageous for me to charge other tablets but not worth it.
I was not sure before buying, if the resolution of 1280 x 800 is enough to check on the 7-inch display a daily newspaper. Now I can say, however, that this works great and I can not imagine that it is even sharper. To be fair, I must say, however, that I had no previous comparison.
Since the tablet has a micro SD slot, you can expand the storage space at will, which was important to me, because I have a part of my music collection on your tablet. Great is also the very long battery life. Asus has a special energy-saving option, in which the WLAN is disabled. This pleases me well, I therefore do not have to shut down the tablet and it just let the night in standby. The next morning, I invite me then via WLAN the current daily issue of the newspaper down which I then read in public transport. These then also the 7-inch format is perfect because of its handiness. So you can surf long on the sofa or in bed, without the tablet is too heavy.
The processing of the device is very high. The back is made of a kind of rubberized plastic, which is very comfortable to hold. The tablet has a very high quality and you can see him the competitive price definitely not on. Because so far I could not detect any weaknesses, I rate the tablet thus with five stars. The only "disadvantage" is possibly that I really wanted to buy a cheap tablet, so I can always and everywhere to take this without fear of having to that it gets broken or stolen. The Asus is now but such high quality that it's too bad it again.
