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

A few minor design niggles.
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

We were sceptical about a lot of things at first - whether the laptop was actually a Tablet, and whether the Asus Transformer could fulfil two different roles simultaneously - but now that we've had more experience with the device, we've gone from doub...
It's a Tablet and laptop; It's the best of both worlds.
Keyboard/touchpad might take some getting used to; Android OS can be powerful but fiddly.
