By far the best bit about the Eee Pad Transformer is the design. If you don't have the keyboard attached
You'd never know it was different from any other tablet. When you do hook up the keyboard
It looks like any other mini laptop
Save for a slightly bulkier but incredibly tough aluminium hinge that also acts as the dock. The keyboard is excellent considering the compact size
With the palm re

Gets very heavy
Browser kept crashing
Although the Eee Pad Transformer is one of our favourite tablets to date
It's not without issues. The Android operating system is arguably the biggest glitch – it's good
But it's not as impressive as the iOS operating system found on the iPad 2. At times
It can be unintuitive to use
And still feels better suited to smartphones than tablets. That said
Affordable Android 3.1 tablet with excellent screen, Excellent build quality, Fullsized USB ports and SD card reader on dock, Dock gives extra battery charge, Useful bundled software
No 5GHz WiFi, No charging over USB, Android isn't yet fully notebook ready, Lack of palmcheck on touch pad is annoying, No delete key
The Eee Pad Transformer is a promise of things to come, with a tempting price to boot. Treating Android as a laptop is still a little rough, but for the most part works quite well, and the added battery life is a stroke of genius.
At $350, the Asus Eee Pad Transformer is one of the lowest priced full-sized, Android 4.0-upgradable tablets. Also, its high-quality screen and relatively cheap keyboard/dock make it an attractive option
A few things keep the Transformer from completely blowing us away: the choppy recording and playback of the camcorder; its sharp edges; a build quality that's somewhat lacking; and problems that arise when docking

Unique keyboard dock accessory, Good battery life, Flexibility of Android OS
Top-heavy when connected to dock, No USB ports without dock, No 3G capability
The ASUS Eee Pad Transformer's optional keyboard dock accessory gives it a unique edge over the competition when it comes to Android tablets. Its top-heavy design, and lack of 3G connectivity are annoyances, but the Transformer remains a worthy purchase i...
The Asus Eeepad Transformer sports all the bells and whistles of its more famous tablet brethren, with a large display, advanced OS and powerful specs. Unlike its famous counterparts though the Eee Pad won't break the bank, and is actually the cheapest...
Great performance, Easy to attach and use keyboard, Fast processor, Responsive touchscreen
No SIM support, Does not support USB charging, Low battery life
Going through our Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 Review, one thing is clear that this cool tablet is here to stay. Though it comes with few drawbacks that might have made it more interesting but still the device is worth the price. Available with useful o...
Beautiful IPS display, Detachable screen, Premium look and feel, Good keyboard
Touchpad on dock isn't the best
The Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101G sells for a price of Rs. 42,999 (including taxes). Compared to other popular 10-inch Android Honeycomb tablets out there -- Motorola Xoom, Acer Iconia A501, Samsung Galaxy Tab 750, etc. -- its price may be very hig...
Asus seemed to have delivered well on their promise. They’ve created a device which gives you the best of both worlds, something we’ve long been waiting for. However, they seemed to have gotten carried away a bit with the success, which reflects in the...
