Asus Memo Pad ME172V
In terms of design, the Asus Memo Pad ME172V looks much like the Asus made Nexus 7 tablet with similar dimensions (196.2 x 119.2 x 11.2 mm) and weight (370 grams). Of course, there are differences. For example, the MeMO Pad ME172V doesn’t have the rubberized soft touch on the back. This model has the volume and the power buttons on the left side, the 3.5 mm audio jack is positioned at the top, while the micro SD and USB slots are found on the bottom edge. The display is 7-inches across diagonals with a 1280 x 800 pixels resolution. We found the screen with an average quality since it suffers from brightness and color issues in certain viewing angles. Asus Memo Pad ME172V is built around a dual-core 1 GHz processor with 1 GB of RAM. We found the tablet satisfactory enough for day-to-day usage – browsing, checking emails, watching videos etc. While running more processor consuming games and tasks, on the other hand, the Memo Pad ME172V’s shows a limited performance. The operating system is Android 4.1. Jelly Bean, enriched with a number of Asus own apps like WebStorage, an alternative of DropBox and BuddyBuzz – a social media aggregator. You also have an access to the Google Store where you can find more than 800k apps and games. | |
