Eee Pad Transformer Prime vs. iPad 2

These are two similarly proportioned tablets. The Transformer is a little longer, and width and depth are separated by fractions of a millimeter.the Transformer Prime is designed for landscape mode; the IPAD 2 is a portrait mode device.The displays are also similar. The Transformer’s screen is sharp and has slightly better specs than the iPad’sThe Transformer Prime’s CPU is its killer spec. The quad-core KAL EL chip debuts with the tablet: when paired with the right software, it will fly. Until apps and firmware are updated to better take advantage of those extra cores, many tasks may perform similarly to a dual-core chip.Apple doesn’t put SD card slots in iOS devices, so the iPad is available in 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB flash storage models. Asus sells the Prime in 32GB and 64GB models — with external storage via microSD card.The iPad 2 has many strengths, but its camera is not one of them. There is no contest in terms of camera quality, as the shooters in Asus’ device are far superior.Both tablets also have front-facing cameras: 1.2MP in the Prime, and too low to bother measuring in the i Pad. Asus lists twelve hours uptime for the tablet, but doesn’t specify what it’s doing during that time. Apple accurately advertises ten hours of web surfing on WiFi for the i Pad
