The ASUS Transformer Prime is without a doubt the finest Android tablet to date, and barring those with an addiction to having what they call the “widest” or “finest” app collection in the land, I’ve got no qualms with calling this the highest quality slate on the market today.

It's the best constructed, fastest Android tablet out there. The only people who should hesitate are those who don't want to be confined to Wi-Fi. That said, this is my new favorite tablet. Maybe it'll be yours too.

For the moment the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime is the best Android tablet on the market. All hail the new king.

The Asus Transformer Prime is the best full-featured Android tablet yet. Its refined design makes it just as sexy as the iPad 2 or Galaxy Tab 10.1, and the laundry list of thoughtful features, coupled with great video playback and camera performance, deliver an impressive device that more than holds...

The Prime has its uses, and it's very good at what it does. But its unique selling point is that it’s a tablet that is so great it’s almost as good as a laptop. Many users might as well just buy a laptop.

This tablet, in my opinion, is the first tablet that can actually compete with the iPad 2. I think it does more than that though. I honestly believe this tablet is better than the iPad 2. It is a total powerhouse, and is easily the best specked tablet on the market right now, and even with the...

Insofar, this tablet is an absolute burner. Its quad-core Tegra 3 processor with 1GB of RAM help it power through anything I can throw at it. I've tethered it through LTE on my Galaxy Nexus, and it absolutely flies through HD youtube videos, Currents, and Google Music streaming. The display is...

In Depth Review: My transformer prime experience started well. I first received this package after a return from school and was excited to say the least. I tore open the packaging and opened it up plugged in and played. My initial thoughts "WOW". It was blisteringly fast and the keyboard dock...

This is definitely my favourite tablet on the market, but if you're not specifically going for Android and you're happy with the restricting OS, than the iPad 2 would be a good choice as well. The Prime does have some serious Wifi and GPS receiving issues which will be fixed in the TF700T which...

Everything about this tablet is great. Except for the wireless performance. The tablet is made out of aluminum which doesn't let the wifi, bluetooth, and GPS communicate as clear as it would without. Besides that the quad core will handle anything you throw at it, and Ice Cream Sandwich drives...

People have complained a lot of WiFI/GPS issues. I have had zero. I was very happy with that. Not sure if they were firmware issues or what, but the upgraded version that will be coming out supposedly addresses that via a modification to the (sexy!) brushed aluminum backing. This thing is a lot...

WOW! I used to poo-poo tablets and Ipads until I bought this beaut. Now my iMac goes to sleep a lot more often. This is the most gorgeous piece of hardware ever cerated. Keypad is great, display is stunning. And with Ice Cream Sandwich Android has finally come up with an OS that’s as sexy as it...

I'm really loving this tablet. I do occasionally wish I had some app that is available for my wife's ipad2, but then sometimes there's some great Android apps that she can't get. Some people complain about GPS/WiFi signal issues due to the metal back. I've not really seen this. I don't...
