Asus ZenPad 3S 10
As promised late last month, today Asus
has taken the wraps off its newest tablet, and it's a pretty high-end one in
fact. The ZenPad 3S 10 became official at an event in Taiwan a few hours ago,
and it will go on sale in Asus' home market starting on August 1. Over there it
will be priced at TWD 11,000 (US$ 342 or € 309 at the current
exchange rates).
So what do you get for that amount of
cash? Pretty much, actually. The ZenPad 3S 10 has a 9.7-inch touchscreen with
4:3 aspect ratio and 2,048x1,536 resolution. It's powered by MediaTek's MT8176 SoC,
which features a hexa-core CPU with two Cortex-A72 cores clocked at 2 GHz and
four Cortex-A53 cores at 1.6 GHz. The GPU is the PowerVR GX6250 clocked at 600
MHz.
The tablet also sports 4 GB of RAM, 32 GB
of expandable storage, an 8 MP rear camera, a 5 MP selfie shooter, a USB Type-C
port, and a 5,900 mAh battery. It runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow underneath the
Asus ZenUI. Its dimensions are 240.5 x 163.7 x 5.8-7.16 mm, and it weighs 430 grams.
