ASUS reveals one thing: the Transformer is one of the best Tablet PCs currently on the market

ASUS reveals one thing: the Transformer is one of the best Tablet PCs currently on the market
Let's begin with the specs. Physically, the tablet PC boasts a 10.1-inch IPS screen display, which is just perfect if you love to play games or watch movies. The screen itself can capture a lot more details that may be left out if you're using a smaller tablet. It has a resolution of 1280 by 800. While not true "HD" HD, but you can expect images to stand out quite beautifully. It isn't the lightest at 1.5 lbs (680g), but it is less than most of the Tablet PCs on the market. The tablet is very comfortable to carry around and the edges are easy to grip.It is fitted with Android 3.2 OS, more commonly known as the Honeycomb, as well as an NVIDIA® Tegra(tm) 2 processor. It comes with 40-pin docking port, used to attach it to the optional ASUS Transformer accessories keyboard dock, and a number of ports including HDMI. You can additionally expand storage through the microSD slot up 32GB. There's also 1GB of RAM, a pair of webcams, 1.2MP front facing and 5.0MP rear facing, along with an e-compass, light sensor, gyroscope and GPS.The ASUS transformer also showcases its flexibility through the use of the optional keyboard dock. When attached, your tablet PC immediately converts itself into a "netbook." Other tablets such as Acer Iconia W500 also offer a full-sized keyboard, but ASUS seems to be the only one who got the configuration or design right. There's a forty-pin dock, where you need to fit the keyboard. The easy snap-on, snap-off model is certainly admirable. Moreover, you can tilt the screen in your preferred position, usually to remove or reduce the glare. The keyboards, on the other hand, have keys that are not only functional but are very soft to press; and you can use it to charge your battery or improve your connectivity. It should be noted that the keyboard dock itself also houses a battery - a Tablet PC first!As mentioned, this tablet PC sports the Android Honeycomb OS, which can be both a blessing and a curse depending on what your priority is. A big advantage of this OS over iOS is that it's easy to customize to fit the needs and preferences of the tablet manufacturers. iOS is proprietary to Apple. The Android OS has the ability to multitask (allowing you to have more than one App open at the same time). The older versions of this OS were mainly designed for smart phones, so the Honeycomb, which ASUS uses on this tablet, is the newest and designed to suit tablet PCs. As expected, too, the tablet offers Flash support, which is lacking in the market leading Apple Tablet PC the iPad.The tablet also makes it very easy to manage all your files. You can decide to create a collective repository for all your videos, photos, and copies; and you can move them in different storage areas without having to connect your tablet to the computer all the time. The NVIDIA processor is praised for its speed and high performance, making it well suited for gaming. This also facilitates the fast multitasking. Our ASUS Transformer review has definitely shown that the upsides far outweigh the downsides for the device.There are plenty of reasons to love the ASUS Transformer and why it deserves a lot of commendations, including as one of the best Android Honeycomb devices. It's cheap, it's packed with pre-loaded Google apps, and it possesses a gorgeous display screen, and runs the latest Honeycomb 3.2 whose apps catalog is growing at an exponential rate. The ASUS Transformer definitely has found a place as one of the best Tablet PCs currently on the market.

The Clueless Reviewer
5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good...
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2011
Verified Purchase
I've been mulling over this purchase ever since it came out. I chose this product over other tablets because of the keyboard that made it into a Netbook. I ordered this with my Prime membership and literally got it 2 days later, very fast! I also bought it in tandem with the keyboard dock.

I'm very impressed with the speed and the UI flows very smoothly with very little lag. If you move around the UI in the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 you can see some graphical lag.

Pros:
-Battery life is INSANE! I've been using this tablet allday n a full charge. I have it mainly attached to the keyboard but since I charged it to 100%, after a full day of usage, my tablet still sits around 96%! The insane part is if I were to pull off the keyboard and use it as a tablet for awhile to say 95%, then decide I want to use the keyboard with it, that 95% will be charged to 100%. I only charged this sucker once overnight and it is nearly at full charge still. INSANE!

-Screen is amazing, it's an IPS screen so it is very vivid and colorful.

-Keyboard dock, this separates this tablet from its competition. Other tablets have keyboard options but they don't fold and close into a netbook nor does it have 2 USB's and an SD slot on the keyboard itself. The USB slots let you attach a mouse, flashdrives ,external harddrives...however USB headsets DO NOT work.

Cons:
-My MicroSD card does not mount. I may have to exchange it for this reason. I do not have a bum card. The funny thing is when I slide the same microsd card into the SD adapter nd slide it into the SD slot on the keyboard dock, it reads fine so I determined that it's a hardware defect. This is a very big bummer. I am confident over amazon and their flexibility with exchanges though.

-Youtube: There's a flaw here and it has to do with the rotation of the screen. If you were to watch a video starting in a horizontal osition but then decide to rotate the screen to a vertical position, the video will RELOAD!

-No netflix app. What the hell! My samsung epic 4g phone has this app and I can watch my instant queue but I can't do this on my glorious tablet?? WEAK!

-Camera: You need good lighting to have good framerate for videos. Low lighting makes it choppy as hell. When u do get good lighting, u will notice a huge increase in framerate.

Overall: A very good buy with the keyboar dock. Unfortunately for me that my microsd slot is broken. Once I return it and hopefully my next unit is not broken then I have nothing but high praise for this tablet. I am afraid to exchange it as ASUS is not know for it's high production value. I can exchange it but risk getting a unit with a broken power button or a defective charging port or what not. Very inconsistent with their build quality. Outside of defective units, the concept and execution of this product makes it one of the best tablets on the market. Upgraded to 5 stars.

UPDATE 8/26/11: I ended up keeping this wonderful product as the microsd slot finally worked. I kept popping in the microsd card repeatedly until it finally read it. Maybe there was something tight or loose in the slot but it finally works. Also a recent firmware update fixed NETFLIX and the battery drain issue with the keyboard. The battery life is still insanely long. What happens is the keyboard drains its battery then the tablet drains its battery so you have 2 batteries to burn before needing a charge and this does last 16 hours or more of use. I use this thing all the time and I charge it maybe 1 every 3 days, and even when I charge it, my battery life was maybe 73%, nowhere near empty. Very happy with this purchase. I recommend you use DOLPHIN HD browser as I think it is a faster more responsive browser than the default one. Upgraded to 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars So glad I bought the TL101 tablet
Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2011
Verified Purchase
I would have given 5 stars except for the lack of instructions for the tablet, Android Honeycomb and applications.

I have had the terminator for a couple weeks and play with it a bit each day. I studied as many of the 10"+ tablets as I could find info for and settled on the TL101. Unlike many purchasers, I did not have phone experience with Android phone OS before this purchase. I updated to 3.1 right away without trying the tablet with 3.0. Update installed with no problems.
The main reason I purchased the TL101 is so I can take my movies with me to Europe since I don't speak the non-English languages shown on TV there. I want to put the movies onto the SD cards and not stream them from a service. I researched high and low on the internet for a successful way to do this with good quality. The biggest problem was with the aspect ratio. I finally found a good converter to make the movies look normal. Only a few reviews talk about viewing movies from the sd card, and most talk in video tech speak so finding the right conversion was exhaustive. This is the conversion that I found to work: Using AVS Converter- Advanced Settings. Video MPEG4 (Divx/Xvid compatible), Frame size 800x400, Bit rate 1687, Frame Rt. Match original (shown on the left side or closest ), Audio should match original if possible.
I have read all the amazon.com reviews looking for helpful info. Many have been really instructive and I wouldn't have purchased the tablet without their input.
Now, to my other experiences with the TL101. When I first turned the pad on, I had a screen with an open padlock in a circle and the date. Nothing else. I could not find any way to go beyond this screen and I could not find a screen shot of this screen in the user manual or on the Internet. No one in the reviews mentioned this screen. This is a page the manufacturer didn't seem to feel was important enough to include in the manual. I send an email to ASUS support and so far haven't heard from them. Tapping on the open padlock did nothing. It was very irritating and I got upset with it so I took my stylus and swirled it around the padlock. Well, hallelujah, I was into the main page. I had to go through this routine every time I started the TL101. Finally, after a couple weeks I found a couple of videos at youtube.com through explained the screen and how to use the padlock. For those unfamiliar as me, touch the padlock to make the circle appear, than move the padlock outside the circle and the tablet will open. Every thing I read seems to assume the reader has Android phone experience and knows everything already. New to Android users must be a very curious investigators, willing to hunt and peck their way around the OS. I'm not a computer beginner but I have found the lack of instructions for Android and applications very unhelpful. One thing I have not found yet is how to close an application when you no longer need it. The only way I know of, is to shut down and restart. I finally downloaded an application that allows me to shut an application down. Gee developers, an X in the top corner would be very helpful. Things that I can make work all seem to be working ok. It's finding out how to make them work that's the problem. The wireless has been great so far and I don't seem to have the lag time others have complained about.
All seems fine except for the speakers, I haven't had a lot of the problems with the tablet it's self. No dead pixels in the screen and no back light problem. The reflection will let you use it as a mirror. I installed a screen protector and wish I had not. I was unable to get all the bubbles out and some show when using the table. I use a styles instead of my fingers to work the screen and that helps a lot with the fingerprints. Response is fine. The construction seems very good to me. The volume on the speakers is totally useless from the built-in speakers. There is no volume at all, even with switch on high. The volume does work better with headphones. As with others, the right speaker is louder than the left but neither is loud enough. I wish I could hear better without the headphones and could turn both the speaker and headset volume louder. I will use a headset with a volume control in it.
I have the keyboard, which I really like except again no instructions. There is an entire row of different keys on the top without any information on what they do. Corners on the TL101 are fine but hinge on the keyboard hurt my legs when installed and I hold it in my lap. The keyboard makes the tablet pretty heavy which is fine with me. I also got a Bluetooth iPad keyboard which is very light and it worked fine. Of course it doesn't add any ports but still a decent alternative and cheaper too.
Most of the problems are with the OS and applications and the void left by the developers. I found an extreme lack of instructions on how things work. Android and applications will be a real problem for beginners who are not computer or android phone literate. Developers, get with it. Technical writing isn't rocket science. Basic "how to's" are not that complicated to write. Screen shots are also helpful. When I find an application on the Internet, sometimes I'm unable to determine exactly what the application will do for me. Most of the applications seem to be games which I'm not interested in. Some force you to keep your data on their server, which I'm also not interested in. I have searched for tutorials on the Internet, but again not too helpful.
I've tried to find out how to reach my Win7 computer through the wireless connection but that process still eludes me. One person wrote that he made it work great with the download from the ASUS site. I have looked high and low and can't find the file he referenced. Again, email to support has been lost somewhere in the cosmos because I haven't heard a peep from them.
As stated before, I purchased my table for travel. Most of the applications I'm looking for are travel related. I've found a very good translator but with the sound being so low, I suspect it will be difficult for the tablet to speak the translation to a foreign language person. I also found a very nice application that shows you the layout of major airports and where many things are located inside. I have a year to play with it before my next trip, so hopefully more applications, with instructions, will be available and another update to the OS to fix some of the problems, like the speakers. I'm looking forward to Skype with video and Netflix streaming video, hint, hint.
I do love the ASUS TL101 and even with the problems, I am very happy with it. I know the technology is new and am willing to accept some lag in getting all to work well together.

Update: 8/17/11
Thanks to all who commented on my review and provided additional tips and hints. I wanted to update on a new problem I have encountered. Since I got the keyboard dock, I love it so much I leave it attached to the Terminator all the time. My battery was running down constantly while my table was turned off. I did lots of test and confirmed the battery really was draining while off. I called ASUS support and spoke to a very nice technician. She explained that the keyboard docking station is always on and in fact does drain the battery. There is an option to turn this function off - "Settings/Screen/MobileDock Battery saving mode". Check this option. Press the power button to put the tablet to sleep and then press a key on the keyboard to see if the doc also went to sleep. If the keyboard wakes the tablet, then you have an older dock and have to send it to ASUS for a hardware upgrade. My dock is one that needs to be returned for the upgrade. Bummer! I haven't decided if I will do that.
I love my TF101 and have been finding lots of applications that I really like. It's strange to me to find free apps or to buy apps for just a few dollars since I am used to spending hundreds. I don't mind paying the small amounts to help developers or to eliminate the advertising.

There has been an Android 3.nn upgrade recently. It has not done much to help the low volume on the speakers. Another bummer. I plugged the tablet into an HDMI television with the mini cable and the picture/sound was better than expected for an .mp4 formatted movie.
