Asus Padfone 2 A68 - Full phone specifications

Asus Padfone 2 packs quad-core S4 CPU in leaked benchmark

Juggling between the Galaxy Note II vs the PadPhone 2. A Phablet or a phone that docks into a tablet which then docks onto a keyboard. Year end 2012 is going to be so cray.

I just hope the PadPhone 2 does not disappoint.

EDIT: Lack of a keyboard add-on and expandable memory, forces me to buy the Samsung Galaxy Note II. :okay:

ASUS PadFone 2 review: two times is a charm for this phone-in-tablet combo -- Engadget

Here's the engadget review. I'm sorely disappointed in the lack of a dock-able keyboard and expandable memory.

... How much memory do you really need?

I'm pretty sure if they added the SD card , it wouldn't be able to have the bleasty 13mp camera

As much as I can get my hands on. Sure I could get a MHL to USB cable so I can hook up a external HDD to the tablet so I can watch movies or shows I acquired... but honestly how convenient is it most of the time? Plus it takes up the port and drains the battery at the same time to power it.

Its just easier to have a 64GB microSD card on hand vs carrying a 2.5' external HDD with you everywhere and still be able to use that slot to display video via HDMI.

I really hope it does better then the first one eh. Very tempting

Comes with a 2 year webstorage of 50gb but I can see how you like the convience of it.
