ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:ExpensiveLack of games that use the processor

Pros:Powerful Tegra 3 processorVery light and thinDock is great
Comment:
I am very satisfied with this tablet. It's the best Android tablet out there in my opinion. There are a few games (like NOVA 3, Shadowgun) that really use the Tegra 3 processor but I hope we will see more in the future. The dock is also really worth it if you plan on using your tablet for work. It's a bit expensive, but it's worth the price.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:Not yet a replacement for netbook

Pros:Crisp displayThin and lightUnit running coolupgradeable to Android 4.0
Comment:
This is an extremely good looking and well built unit with crisp IPS display. Upgrade to Android 4.0 is a breeze. Haven't experienced any lag problem associated with previous Android devices yet. Definitely the best Android tablet so far. Highly recommended.That said, it's still not good enough for serious productive work. Apps are still quite primitive. Still not the time to abandon your notebook/netbook yet.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:GPS is bad to non-existant. I can never get a signal for minutes. Wireless is not to bad but not as good as it should be.

Pros:Good Graphics with a very nice bright screen. Very Responsive with games/apps.
Comment:
I have had the Prime since before Christmas and I use it on a regular basis for e-mail, Video, e-book reading, some web surfing and the odd game. The overall performance for those functions is exactly as I hoped and I am very impressed with the feel off it. It really feels like a well built device.On the bad side I am currently experiencing a problem where my transformer right now after the last update  will not charge any more. It detects fine as a USB storage device when I plug it into a computer so I know my cable is still good however it simply will not start charging even when turned off. As of right now I have a ticket open with ASUS hoping for a resolution as it is currently a dead device to me in this mode once the battery drains completely. I am also a bit frustrated by the lack of accessories for this device. I do not desire a keyboard dock but I would love the ability to at least by an additional cable so I don't have to carry it around. I have also yet to have seen any covers for them? Anyone else have any luck finding those anywhere in stock?

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:Wireless card was sketchy out of the box but a quick update  to ICS fixed that.

Pros:Sleek, light, solid, fast and made by a quality brand.
Comment:
All I can say is WOW! This thing is impressive! I have held many a tablet, and this tablet has beat out the iPad and the Galaxy in my opinion. It feels great in your hands, the screen is wonderful, its fast and runs ice cream sandwich. Really there are too many good things to say so I'll say it has it all! Buy this tablet and you WILL NOT be disappointed!

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:Many people have been experiencing random restarts, wifi issues

Pros:-Very fast, and very smooth interface-Much smoother overall compared to competing tablets, such as the Galaxy Tab
Comment:
I am very happy with my purchase and have absolutely no regrets. Overall the OS is very smooth. I was considering the Galaxy Tab, but after using the Galaxy Tab for a total of 2 minutes, my decision was clear. The Galaxy Tab is so choppy and slow that it verges on the point of being unusable. Some people have experienced random restarts with their primes, but I have had 0 issues so far.

Pros:Easy setupFast performanceLooks great
Comment:
I had been shopping around for a tablet for the last few month's and after reading many reviews, this was the one I wanted. I have NOT been disappointed. This tablet is amazing. It is slim, sleek, and beautiful! The device upgraded to ICS shortly after I connected to my wireless network. Got everything setup in minutes. It has not missed a beat. I have been downloading app's like crazy, and I haven't been able to put it down yet.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:Lack of peripherals to be found locally.

Pros:Responsive, thin, capable, battery life, screen brightness/clarity/colour.
Comment:
I only have 4 days experience with my Prime, however I have hardly put it down. Battery life is great in standby, the companion core hardly drains the battery. Not sure if kudos should be given to Asus or not, but with ICS, you can swype type, no third party app required. The wifi signal may be slightly weak, but is comparable to what I get with my HTC Desire HD. I have experienced no GPS issues, and have acquired a signal inside multiple buildings. Due to the rocky supply, peripherals are impossible to find in Regina and Saskatoon, forget rural settings. Unfortunately, Asus re-positioned the camera and light sensor, so screen protectors for the TF101 wont work, nor will the TF101 dock. Overall, an awesome tablet!

Pros:Fast purchased
Comment:
I ordered when it was in backorder on Jan 4th. Finally showed up Feb 2nd. This tablet is amazing. Extremely fast, light and ICS is sweet. I got a motorola xoom for christmas, found it a little slow so i returned it. So glad i did, way better than the Xoom and the iPad 2 which i purchased for my wife. I totally recommend it.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:sharp edges, cursor disappears when moved in certain apps with ICS, top-heavy with dock, highly reflective screen

Pros:brilliant screen, no wifi problems, plays hi-def movies, light-weight, Asus up-dates including ICS, battery life with dock is fantastic
Comment:
I have a rooted Nook colour which is great; however, its limitations show when compared to Prime. With the dock, you have an extremely light-weight laptop computer which does everything I can throw at it with ease. I downloaded the Nook .apk and use the tablet (sans dock) as a very good reader, albeit with sharp edges.Apple needs to worry about the Prime.

ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 10.1IN LED NVIDIA TEGRA3 Android Honeycomb 32GB Tablet Grey
Cons:Top-heavy with dock - not a big deal though.

Pros:Dock, speed (quad core), made by Asus, latest OS, great battery life.
Comment:
I was really tempted to buy the original Asus Transformer, but had a laptop at the time, and decided not to bother. This time around, decided to sell the laptop and buy a TFP - I'm quite happy with my decision. This is small enough that I actually bring it with me more often. It's a lot more convenient for school - I can type notes with the dock and write equations with my finger on the screen. At home on the couch I can detach it and mess around with games or youtube. Great battery life as well - more than enough for a long day. Highly recommended!

It's the best tablet out there. The best display, the best SoC. Asus also did well by deploying the Android 4.0 update  already.Some people say there are issues with wifi and GPS. I didn't test GPS but wifi is working fine for me.

Pros:Fast w/ Tegra 3 Quad CoreGreat Build QualityButtery Smooth OperationGreat Hardware Feature SetNice Looking UnitICS Upgrade Still to Come
Comment:
Finally got mine yesterday and my first impressions have been very positive. No Wi-fi; GPS or screen bleeding issues noted at all. With the exception of a 3-4 apps that I brought over from my smartphone (S2)that didn't work properly on the Prime everything else has fully met my expectations. I am assuming that the majority of these app incompatibilities will be resolved either by individual updates in the near future or by the introduction of the Ice Cream Sandwich and ultimately the standardization that OS will bring to the Android platform.

Great tablet for the price, haven't used it enough to comment on battery life atm. Wifi seems to be on par with other devices I've owned. Can't wait for Ice Cream Sandwich update, Honeycomb is very rough around the edges.

Cons:The screen (minor glitch)

Pros:Everything about this tablet
Comment:
Everything, including futureproofing, is awesome about this tablet. I love it to bits as much as a geek can appreciate his/her gadgets without resorting to electrophily (Rule34). But...I don't know HOW I managed that, I got a screen burn-in in less than a week of use. Yes, I use and abuse of the thing, but burn-in should be a thing of the past.Would buy again, especially if Asus makes an AMOLED-powered Transformer in the future.

Cons:Bit heavy to read but all those kind of powerfull tablet have the same problemes (including Ipad). The edge of the tablet are a bit sharp, why?

Pros:If you have an Android phone, this is a perfect match. Great tablet, one of the first android to match Ipad's.
Comment:
Great tablet. If you want to stick with Android or simply drop  Apple and their proprietary control, this is your solution. I'm really satisfy!

So far I love this tablet. Its sleek and does what I want and then some. There are times the OS seems a bit sluggish or an app crashes, but I expect that to be fixed through software updates, and it doesn't happen that often. All in all I'm happy with my purchase.
