If you’re looking for an Android tablet that’s different from the usual boxy design, the new ASUS Memo Pad 7 (ME572CL) with 4G LTE is something worth checking out. Design wise, the Memo Pad 7 which is said to be inspired by clutch bags and wallets, is available in 3 colours, with each having a distinctive texture.
The Rose Champagne colour has a pearl finish, while the Burgundy Red model comes with a dark lacquer coat that ASUS says mimics that of a grand piano. Lastly the Gentle Black model with a matte-black finish and texture which claims to look and feel like fine leather. While the exterior looks more stylish than other compact rivals, the MemoPad 7’s body uses fiberglass which is reinforced by a duralumin frame.
The front gets a 7″ Full HD (1920×1200) resolution IPS Truvivid display and under the hood it runs on Intel’s 64-bit Atom Z3560 processor that has 4 cores clocked at 1.83GHz and is mated to 2GB of RAM. On-board you’ll get 16GB of storage that’s expandable with microSD. In the camera department, it has a 5MP main camera with PixelMaster technology, while the front has a 2MP camera.
Out of the box, it runs on Android 4.4 KitKat with their very own ZenUI. Overall the MeMO Pad 7 is 8.3mm thick and weighs 269g. It is available now in Malaysia at RM999.
