Design
The machine still has the characteristics of the Memo Pad line’s design, which is plastic throughout the cabinet, surround the edges are light on the metal rim. The apparent difference is the screen size. Memo Pad If compared with HD 7, the new model has a larger screen for about 25%, but for feeling soft and thinner edges.
The machine we evaluate is white, surrounded by rim edges are painted bright plastic, making machine metal seat support “cheap” more. Memo Pad size 10 x 8 x 212.4 mm 127.4, but can not fit but could pocket or backpack for on pair to carry easily beside. With an average length of their hands, I can still hold an entire machine with one hand but will fatigue when holding long to squeeze a relatively strong force to keep the device to slip out.
A slippery feeling comes from Asus uses the familiar plastic ball to make the cabinet and slightly beveled its circular edges. The phenomenon is easier fingerprints appeared screen and casing used in the process that is not easily wiped out, making the poor better. On the black version, this drawback will see more clearly see the white.
The front panel is 8-inch screen sizes with rim sides a little thinner than the predecessor. 1.2MP camera on the side, edging below highlights ASUS logo. 4-button touch screen and placed in a slightly skewed to the left makes the screen a bit small and lacks balance in the layout of buttons.
Four corners are rounded, beveled edges to make the machine becomes thinner and softer. The right side has the power button lockout cum volume up key and the like arranged on many current smartphones. When using the machine with one hand, we see this quite convenient layout, but the actual use on this machine, edge machine has been crossed, light board and the buttons are placed on it makes for great press unreal hands, sometimes slipping or to press harder.
Asus Memo Pad 8 has 16GB of internal memory; the left side has an SD memory card slot that can expand storage up to 64GB. This slot “exposed” without cover should not only reduce the aesthetic that dirt and foreign objects can get into damage to the machine.
Next to the top of the camera has a micro USB port for charging and data connectivity, a 3.5 mm headphone socket, and a microphone.
The back and a pretty simple ball with white paint the entire surface. 5.0MP primary camera resolution above, this camera up slightly convex surface slightly, just not nice, makes the user worry about scratching the camera capabilities. It had no light flash to aid when shooting photos or video. Near the center of the surface after the ASUS shiny logo, the bottom line is the three small holes to play speakerphone. If you let it entirely on a flat surface, the speakerphone will be prevented more audible.
Screen
Memo Pad 8 front of the screen size is 8 inches, a resolution of 1280 x 800. It uses an IPS panel wide viewing angle so that minor color variation. The highest brightness of 337 nits screen around. Along with parameters, the different result shows visibility color screen is relatively suitable for a cheap tablet.
When I saw the actual use decent quality screen. The phenomenon can occur due to the glare screen has a layer above the mirror ball. When used in the house is not much affected, but if used in bright sunlight, you need to increase the brightness to maximum and hard choices a little perspective. It also has no light sensor, so you will have to adjust the screen brightness when changing the user environment manually.
Borders two sides, but the screen is not quite thick enough for the user to set the thumb comfortable grip without touching the touchscreen. The lower screen border is thicker to fit the grip horizontally for entertainment, gaming.
Imaging capabilities, filming
Memo Pad is cheap but fully equipped with two cameras front and rear. Rear camera with 5MP resolution for quality okay to record moments to share on social networks or cloud services.
The ability to adjust the camera and support discussed; users can easily adjust the parameters diversely and intelligently. Activate face detection mode helps you laughing beautiful moments and can be edited to get the best shots to laugh. Shutter speed and focus relatively quickly. Many other shooting modes such as panorama (panorama) capture creative, brilliant shooting landscapes, portraits.
Cinematography: Memo Pad 8 camera after the camera is capable of 1080p HD, the picture quality is obtained fairly compared to 5.0MP resolution. During the filming process, I see resistance to vibration and noise is pretty good.
Performance
Using a computer, I sometimes find it a little slow to meet the user’s actions, such as printing something functional opened, more than 1s latency is new to me almost not click, or when rotating screen also has more than the usual lag. When browsing, if fast, then drag phenomenon also lags.
However, such a phenomenon occurs only in moments quickly switch screen should not affect the process used with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, watching videos, listening to music, relatively smooth machine operation.
