Asus Zenpad announced, for those who are still interested in tablets
The tablet industry is not doing well and many are not finding real life use for tablets. People who really need a tablet still go for it, but the market is dwindling for Android tablets. Asus has always been innovative with tablets. From its padfone to fonepad, there has always been some uniqueness about Asus tablets. On that lines, Asus is trying to revive the tablet market with its two new tablets launched in India. The ASUS ZenPad 7.0 (Z370) and 8.0 (Z380).
Asus ZenPads are not high on specs but are feature rich. It is the first tablet to have interchangeable back covers. It also comes along with interesting cases. The Zen Clutch which comes in 5 colors including leather finish, has a sophisticated look and style element to it. The Audio cover is an external speaker that adds 5.1 channel surround sound to the ZenPads. If you are a frequent traveller, you would want the Power Case which has external power bank in it. The ZenPad accessories lets you choose the feature and customize the ZenPad according to your needs. It is available with LTE/3G connectivity and phone functionality or as a Wi-Fi-only model. The price of the ZenPad starts at Rs 11999.
