Il nuovo ASUS MeMo Pad è dotato di:
- CPU VIA WM8950 da 1 GHz;
- GPU Mali-400;
- Dispaly da 7 pollici con risoluzione di 1024×600 pixel e 170 ppi;

Purtroppo il colosso taiwanese non ha rivelato alcun nome in codice perciò si ipotizza che questo nuovo MeMo Pad non sia altro che il celebre ME172V testato da GLBenachmark. Questo tablet Android inizialmente avevo un prezzo compreso tra i 99$ ed i 129$ ma secondo le ultime indiscrezioni il prezzo ufficiale sarà di 150$.
Inoltre, come troverete nel comunicato, ASUS ricorda che questo è solo un tablet e non è compatibile con le tastiere dock della linea Transformer Pad.
Ecco il comunicato ufficiale di ASUS:
“ASUS Launches the MeMO Pad™
