The Asus Memo Pad 10 Comes Out of The Shadows

It's been but a mere few days since ASUS quietly introduced that Jelly Bean-loaded, 7-inch Memo Pad, though if a recent video shown off on YouTube is to be believed, the company's got yet another, larger Memo Pad up its sleeve. Such tablet's said to be the MeMo Pad 10, which has yet to be officially unveiled by the Taiwanese firm but has somehow made its way to the folks over at MobileArena. Just like its smaller sibling, the MeMo Pad 10 is reportedly sporting a flavor of Android's latest, but, as its moniker would imply, a 10-inch (1280 x 800) display is among the highlights here -- other purported specs include a 1.2GHz Tegra 3 CPU, 1GB RAM and 16GB of built-in storage (which could be expanded via microSD). We'll have to wait and see if ASUS makes a MeMo Pad 10 announcement in a few weeks at Mobile World Congress; until then, however, there's a video after the break for anyone interested in getting an early peek at the slate.

Asus Unveils The Memo Tablet, A 7" Number For a Measly £90

We’re still waiting on that $99 Google Nexus tablet rumoured to be in the works, but in the meantime, we’ve got another tasty cut-price tablet to admire: meet the brand new Asus MemoPad, a seven-inch number running Android 4.1 that costs a mere $150 (£93).

Much like Acer’s new low price Iconia, the Asus MemoPad is a seven-inch tablet with a 1024×600 resolution display – much like the original Amazon Kindle Fire. Unlike Amazon’s slate though, it’s running full fat Android 4.1 with access to the Google Play store and apps galore, and with any luck, its 1GHz processor and 1GB of memory should be more than enough for casual users on the performance front.

On the storage front, the Asus MemoPad squeezes in 8 or 16GB of space, enough for plenty of songs and movies, though you can bump that up with a Micro SD memory card.

It’s out in the US this month for $150, and we’re chasing to find out when we’ll be seeing it in the UK and for how much, so stay tuned – Asus’ storming success with the Google Nexus 7 means this is one low price iPad mini rival to watch. [GadgetShow]
