Asus Transformer Pad TF701T - User Reviews

  • The usb connector is a proprietary one so difficult to find in 2019

  • Smallest I've found is made by GRIFFIN

  • Did any of you know what tipe of Stylus-Pen would work with this tablet?? I mean one with a really small contact, not like most of the pen with this big soft button you can write with, a really small one. Thanks

  • i have had my asus tf701t for at least 3 yrs yes the battery finally gave out. went on aliexpress and found the original kooc battery 20 bucks took a month to get got a guy to install and BAM perfect now.

  • I bought this in November, 2014. I was impressed at first. Now that I have had it for about two years, I would like to caution any would-be buyer. One, the battery just quit about a year into my use of my tablet, despite my meticulous care in the charging and usage of the tablet. Two, the charging port of this tablet uses a totally different cable, not like the standard 5volt cable of most other android tablets. Three, the charging voltage is 15 volts, not the usual 5 so you can not use any other plug wall charger even if you use the unusual charging cable which goes with this tablet. Fourth and most important - your charging cable is so poorly constructed and designed that plugging and unplugging into the charging port will damage the charging end of your cable in just a few months. If you can live with all these, good luck with owning one of these stupidly designed products of ASUS. And oh, when your battery gives out in one year, good luck looking for an ASUS service center - it probably is across the country and would cost you more to transport it there for replacement than buy a new Samsung product of equivalent output and capability.

  • ...also time on single charge link in spec also...

  • Battery capacity and technology: 7,820mAh (tablet), 4170mAh (dock). Change info in spec page, btw its all over the net(andoidpolice....).

  • Avoid Asus product because android kitkat is only available for us version !!! Debug adb is enhance in 4.4 version. Make available update for all buyer event without toshiba layer ll be great. Developper stay with samsung !!!samsung

  • Mine was garbage out of the box. Would freeze in buffer mode randomly. Sent it in 3 times over 12 regretful weeks,they sent a new one(3rdX) that behaved even worse(hdmi mini port work on first use then gone, on both) then the daydream screen would takeover and I had enough. Finally took a bat to it and was never happier... and purchased the SM-T900...what a difference.

  • hi''''iii''everybody my name is pankaj kumar dash.i love asus pc very much because it is far better pc in our technology time so i love asus pc.now i have a asus pc and ihopely said any time in any cost asus pc is the best pc in the world.****pankaj kumar dash****. ((((( rinku )))))

  • Used Armorsuite screen protector and ruined my new tablet. Where does one buy a screen protector?

  • You can always use the wifi hotspot on your 3G or 4G mobile or a mifi. That's what we do works great

  • New Asus Transformer need to be 12 inch and contain this specs: 1.Display.- 12 inch QHD - LTPS - CGG 3 2.Memory.- 3-4 GB RAM 3.Chipset.- Tegra K1

  • Its a great Tablet with many advantages Its just needs 3G to make it perfect for outside use of internet which is necessary forr outdoor purposes like travelling .

  • do you realise that to browse you need internet, and to have internet you need wifi or access to 3G or 4G? Obviously many people need a tablet with that ability, since they can't only rely on possible availability of wifi.

  • Got this 2 months ago, and it exceeded my expectations. Trouble-free, with all the advantages of the hardware and the Android OS put to good use. According to the official ASUS site the microSD port should support 128GB capacity, which doesn't work for me, but the 64GB card works fine. Also I haven't succeed to get a combined wired headset (headphones + mic) to comply with the device, so I use simple headphones for video and music, and a Bluetooth hands-free to communicate - if the man's resolute, there's a solution!(;-) I totally recommend it!

  • root first(I think) idk with the windows version but there is a apple rom

  • Asus Trasnformer series is THE tablet that I want to have. But I need GSM. Asus didn't release TF700TG. So until they release TF701TG my only option is to buy refurbished TF300TG from ebay, which I want to avoid. But if Asus won't release GSM version of new transformer in 2014 I will be stuck with refurbished TF300TG, the only GSM Transformer tablet now. Why don't they add 3G? It is a lost opportunity for Asus.

  • Just an advice!!Look dude,why is it called a Tablet??It's for working,playing,browsing,but not for calling or texting.If you want to buy this great tablet,just buy it and don't think about a SIM card to put in it,just use it for other reasons!

  • Is there a way to install windows on this device?

  • this is one of my best to buy tablets but the lack of 3g is really making me lean toward the samsung 10.1

  • I got to this page by clicking on a link to the Asus TF710T Specs. Is the TF710T a real asus product or Vaporware

  • This tab has an hdmi port but does the screen run Blu ray

  • Y, would asus make such a beautiful tablet and the give it a diffect from the production line by leaving out 3g / 4g, or is there an option for 3g some where i thought it was ment to be a tablet which means a mobile device

  • Me too :-(

  • I want 3g in it

  • Just noticed that the review has been published in the mean time. Great review of a great product. Thank you, gsmarena, for bringing the nuances that other sites often lack ;-)

  • Dear gsmarena, I am looking forward to your detailed review - any indication when we can expect it? Best regards

  • Nowadays you can easily use your smartphone as a wireless hotspot :) That means you only have to pay for one mobile contract and not a separate one for the tablet (or same with additional cost). In Switzerland a second data plan cost a lot! :( Second, the device is easier and cheaper to build. I really don't miss SIM slot. And much much better than with Nexus where you don't have a microSD slot!

  • Why they make all these nice mobile pads, transformer trio and the like etc. etc. with GPS so you mean it is also for outdoors use but no sim card slot! what the heck only for use at Home or in your bar or restaurant? I understand that it has only sense like my Tablet with a data sim card which is automatically switching to WiFi when it is available. Am I stupid then please somebody tell me why! By the way I am always switching countries and places and liked the new transformer trio, but also only WIFI!!!

  • Funyy Look

  • Today's announcement is an October 21 release in the UK. No other countries were specified. I have their first tablet and keyboard (TF101) and I am reasonably happy with it for use around the house. This 701T has excellent specs!

  • Could anybody tell us when they will release this tablet?

  • This tablet seems like its forever before they release it

  • I have the infinity tf700t which is OK but this upgrade is a bit better only concern is the built quality on the present version I'm worried because it looks almost the same and why does this tablet seems to be taken forever to release and hope they fixed all the lag with this new tegra 4 processor.

  • i really like to have it,but it's not Available yet.finally i'm sure that it's the best tablet in the world.

  • Thank you! Holy shit you seem like the only sane person on this thread

  • Hi,dear.Here we must respect the others!Also we can,t genaralize nobody(I or you)to all the people!!!?This not an English class either to blame or supress somebody!People here like or dislike these Chinese products and just in their ability logically as their humans rights ask or answer the questions!So please if you can,t answer,don,t re-direct your answer!?Please just help if you can to solve a problem but not to blame somebody for something unrelated to the subjects of these out of date devices!There is just the few expetions in the asus products:Onlythe precious google made masterpiece nexus2-2013 that has given fame and reputation to the unknown asus and fonepad note 6!?I have to add that without the aid of google,asus is nothing but a name from nowhere!!!?With the best regard+respect + humanity!Thanks. I als appriciate the independent factwriting gsm!

  • I seriously think you need to learn English. Not just rely on some dodgy translation software. Nobody understands what you mean to say here...

  • Hi,dear.First thanks to support of the unsupported,careless,serviceless let it go anyway Chinese devices!?We live in the world of facts,knowledge,technology,research ,science,news and+++!I think its unimaginable to imagine an enginless car that four horses must drag it!My dear friend,as a matter of fact without the help of google all these devices are like the engineless car in a realistic world!?They are just nothing,without after sale support and care!According to the tests and researches,maximum lifetimes of these empty cans are just between10 days to one year!Also there are more secret undisclosable facts that I am not allowed to disclose them!I hope that someday Chinese pay attention to unbiased unprejudiced advices?As a saying:Just look for what the one says,not who the one is!My dear,I write the facts until I see the signs of changes and modifications in what I have said about them so far!I respect your views and thanks to you!I hope the Chinese do the same?With the best regards+luck+success for all!

  • Quad-core 1.9 GHz Cortex-A15 - what a processor because of the stupit android ... and with this resolution will lag for sure at list a bit.

  • Whats the deal with all the complaints about not being able to make phonecalls on this tablet. I use my 10.1 inch tablet for web browsing, muti-media and gaming. I use my phone for making phone calls. Why would anybody want to make phonecalls with a 10.1 inch tablet ?? Crazy people lol

  • "Without the Mobile Dock, the tablet will cost $399, while the bundle will retail for $499."

  • please, do somebady from google-asus company want tell me how much mony will cost this device and when we may buy them in serbia :) this one is better then ever similar device! i just want him so badly!!

  • Asus well done well done u na don't try seens u do pad bt for sure this is nigeria we need someting like enabling callin camera 5mx an more and price should be hight does not mater

  • My dear not all the world like nexus 7 like u do .. I hate it whether it has high specs and cheap ..Its not a high multimedia tablet as this one , its a matter of personal choice .. I like better screen colors and better designed tablet .. in my personal opinion nexus 7 design is ugly and asus knows that :D

  • It seems some people fail to understand the meaning of "optional".

  • Hi,dear.You are right and I agree with you!I am wondering why the asus that makes google nexus 7-2 masterpiece with voice call,why is making this kind of useless tablets!!!?I think that asus should think that the world has changed and people don,t go buying devices with the close eyes!!!?Nowadays people research and with the open eyes select the best tablets!!!?No sim card,no memory slot no gsm voice communications finally ends up in auctions with the utmost 150 dollars of price!!!?Though having excellent features,design,and performance,it,s complete waste of money!!!?Asus that has fonepad fhd,I don,t understand why asus makes these total waste of money!?In addition to nexus 7-2 google,asus just has 3 worldwide acceptable gsm tablets!!!?I hope before God forbid bankrupcy,asus with the right management considers these issues smart,carefullness,positivity and responsibility,if they care about their future not to end in the dead end!!!?I wish you,gsm,all,and asus better future as I care!!!?Good luck+thanks!

  • I read many reviews. Why does it always boasting the 4-5 hours addition with the keyboard. To me, a tablet with the built-in touch keyboard is enough. I would rather get/carry a smaller power-bank than the less-usage gigantic keyboard dock for that extra battery life.

  • tegra 4 o.O qst table using tegra 4. i will love it so much!!

  • no man, its 18k may combined with the keyboard dock

  • Stupid asus,samsung as a market leader in tablet failed to market nexus 10 as there are no call function,no stylus,no samoled,bad camera,low ppi. You gonna make no sale on this item too asus!!!!!!

  • is it the tablet really 18k MAH? o.O! thats crazy big battery!

  • Android have java and flash . But all Iphone series haven't flash and java

  • Well done Asus. But pls we Nigerian need a tablet that can make call, text, take pictures in the dark, 2gb ram, expandable memory up to 64gb, powerful retina display. Pls. Pls and pls do this and take over from Samsung in Nigeria. God bless Asus.

  • Pls pls pls Asus what is this? We in Africa need GSM so we can make calls, camera with flash iscase we want to snap in the dark, but mind you or remember Africa most especially Nigeria is a big market for things like this. So what so ever Nigerian can not use is not good. Pls give us some GSM 2gb ram flash for darkness slot for memory flcard up to 64gb, then send this to Nigeria and see if your product will not be No 1 in the world, trust me.

  • Better get padfone infinity + the station with bluetooth keyboard then this one. At least the other one have call function.. can use as phone when in need.. Android cannot replace normal desktop features, no flash no java no heavy work lifting.. and no storage. The only way this might be better then padfone is price.. perhaps..

  • So ignore the spec updates. Just because it is not a complete redesign, doesn't mean it is worthless. TF101 had Tegra2, TF300 had Tegra3, this new Infinity will have Tegra4. Upgraded to 2 GB Ram as well.

  • The same old shitti desing from Asus ... From Transformer TF101 to this one the same desing only slimer ... God dammet I own the TF300T but now that I have seen the desing of this one I am not going to buy it ... It is like having TF300T with full hd display ... Lame ! When I buy something I wan't to differ a little bit from what I owned before !! Not buying something new with the desing from 3-4 years ago ... And 5 MP camera ? What happend to the 8 MP from TF300T ?! Like I said LAME !

  • Finally, Android has high-end tablet, but who use tablet without sim slot if laptop is still much better option?

  • Apart from resolution and chip, everything else has gone backwards, very disappointing indeed.

  • Can't wait to see the syntethic benchmarks!

  • It would be perfect if it had sim slot for 3G. I nearly find my Android tablet.

  • awesome! I want one :)

  • I knew it would be awesome ! Camera is downgraded(at least just the resolution) from last year's model but who cares you won't use your tablet as a camera.
