The ASUS MEMO Pad 8 is ‘the world’s lightest eight-inch LTE tablet’
ASUS boss Jonney Shih is barreling through his announcements at Computex 2014. Between routers, 4K monitors and flagship laptops, he also revealing the company’s newest tablets, and the MEMO Pad 8 is the first salvo. With a 64-bit 2.3GHz Intel processor, Gorilla Glass 3 and a full HD display, Shih says it’s the lightest LTE tablet in the world — it’s only 299 grams.
It was swiftly followed by the slightly smaller, and logically named, MEMO Pad 7. It’ll also pack Intel’s 64-bit Atom processor, although the screen is merely HD(that’s 720p), not 1080p like the ‘Pad 8. If you haven’t quite bought an Android tablet yet (and you’re still in the market for one), the MEMO Pad 8 will arrive later this year in pink, white and royal blue color options, while the MEMO Pad 7 will be dressed in turquoise, red, white and yellow. Summer shades, people. Summer shades.
