ASUS Transformer Prime
TF700T and Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 tablets fall in different categories
but are being touted as the 'tablet devices of tomorrow'.
ASUS
Transformer Prime TF700T will hit the shelves in the coming months. The
device will get the advantage of being the successor to the much popular
Transformer Prime. It is also being expected that the upcoming version
will do away with the shortcomings of Transformer Prime. Being the next
generation Ice Cream Sandwich tablet, it is being seen as a technical
development from the company's end. The device is likely to be shipped
in the second quarter of 2012.
On the other hand, Samsung's
device is by far the slimmest tablet device from the electronics maker
and is no less in terms of its specs and popularity. Apart from the
sleek body, it comes with the legacy of Galaxy Tab line, which in itself
is an advantage for the tablet. This offing from Samsung has got some
rave reviews from the industry experts. A review of the device done by GSM Arena says, “Not only are we getting a Super AMOLED Plus instead of a regular
LCD, we are also treated to a larger screen and higher resolution in a
body that hasn’t growtn noticeably. Plus, there’s the latest version of
the tablet-friendly Android on board, instead of Gingerbread and the
oversized-phone experience that it provides.” |

to call it as the 'premium display' which delivers brilliant colours,
better contrast ratio, sharpness and response time that makes viewing
clearer and sharper. On the other Transformer Prime TF700T sports a
25.7-cm (10.1-inch) high-definition Super IPS + LCD capacitive display

pixels. Experts of NVONews opine that this is a better display than any other tablet launched so far in any category.
