We tested the Asus N55SF -S1124V 15.6" multimedia notebook in November last year. Acer 5633WLMi battery Now, Asus has an updated version in its range called N55SL-S1016V. The new SL shares a lot with its predecessor: the same case, a 1080p matte screen, and a subwoofer. However , the refresh sports Intel's dual core i5-2450M instead of a quad core i7-2630QM. The graphics card has also been changed. While the Asus N55SF-S1124V still featured an Nvidia GeForce GT 555M, the GeForce GT 635M is the card of choice for the SL. Acer 5632WLMi battery
The SL comes with a 500 GB hard drive and 8 GB of memory. Another major difference compared with the SF is the price. Whereas Asus price-tagged the Asus N55SF-S1124V at EUR 1100 ($1400), the SL is only EUR 900 ($1145). Acer 5612AWLMi battery That is reason enough to take a closer look.In the past few months, Asus has stirred up the tablet community with its Transformer Pad series. Foremost amongst these tablets was the Prime TF201, which performed very well in many reviews. Sadly, its aluminum case caused problems with WLAN and GPS reception. Acer 5612WLMi battery
The successor, the Transformer Pad TF300T, has a composite material case (and avoids those issues), but it does not have the same level of workmanship or great display as the Prime. The latest addition to the Transformer family is the high-end Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T which corrects all the past mistakes. Asus promises a fantastic design, great workmanship and top class performance. Acer 5611ZWLMi battery
We cannot find any deficiencies in the technical specifications of the tablet. The 10.1 inch display has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. Acer 5611AWLMi battery The model runs on the powerful Nvidia Tegra 3 CPU (4 cores runs at 1.6GHz) and has up to 64GB flash storage. The technical specifications of the Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T are a delight to read, as this is one of the most powerful tablets, on paper at least. In addition, the test model has a great look: an aluminum case with the Asus ZEN design. This design is composed of fine, concentric circles on the case surface, which "simulate the senses". As expected, the Infinity looks great, especially as it is so thin. Apple PowerBook G4 17inch battery
The Infinity TF700T would not be a Transformer Pad without a docking keyboard. This Asus model is bundled with a docking keyboard which will make typing easier, add more ports and increase the battery life. Deliveries without the bundled dock will be available in the middle of July. Apple iBook G4 14inch battery Asus has not announced any news about a 3G or LTE model.The Asus Transformer Pad TF300T was an experiment with a case made of composites. The Taiwanese manufacturer has reverted to aluminum and copies off of the Prime TF201 for this test model. Apple iBook G3 14inch battery
The new Asus top dog, the Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T, uses the Asus ZEN design, which is made up of concentric circles inscribed on the aluminum surface. Our test model has the product code TF700T-1B130A and comes in amethyst-grey. The slight violet coloration is really nice on the 10.1 inch tablet. The test model neither looks too dull nor too gaudy. Apple PowerBook G4 12inch battery
The new iPad may be a slim tablet, but this Asus test model is ultra-slim. The technical specifications state a thickness of 8.5mm, making the tablet a pleasure to hold in the hand. The Asus device weighs 598 grams (~1.32lb.), which is not the lightest tablet in this category. Apple PowerBook G4 15inch Titanium battery
The workmanship of this review sample is impeccable. Asus maintains the high standard found in the Prime TF201. We found no flaws in the Infinity TF700T - no sharp edges or irregular gaps. Apple iBook G4 12inch battery The aluminum case is very sturdy and requires a lot of force to deform.The display is protected by the scratch resistant Corning Gorilla Glass. Asus has installed the second generation of the scratch-resistant glass, which according to Corning, is far slimmer than its predecessor and just as robust. Apple iBook G3 12inch battery
The docking keyboard is bundled with out test model. This keyboard is made of aluminum and is the same color as the tablet. Apple PowerBook G4 15inch battery The circles of the ZEN design are not included. Thankfully, the workmanship is the same as that of the tablet. The keyboard weighs 538 grams, which brings the total weight of the docked tablet to about 1100 grams (~2.6lb.). This is similar to the weight of a light netbook. As the docking keyboard contains a second battery, the Asus Infinity should beat any netbook in terms of battery life. Apple MacBook Pro 15 inch battery
The Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T runs on four cores like many other tablets nowadays. Apple MacBook 13 inch battery The tablet uses the Nvidia SoC Tegra 3. The tablet stands out thanks to the higher clock frequency of the processor : 1.7GHz (max while one core is running) and 1.6GHz (all four running). As all other models with Tegra 3 SoCs, the Asus Infinity has a fifth core which only kicks in for less-demanding tasks, so as to extend the battery life. The graphics chip with twelve processing cores is also a part of the SoC (System on a Chip). The RAM amounts to 1GB which is typical for tablets. Apple MacBook Pro 15 inch battery
High resolution is an exceptional feature for a 10.1 inch display. The 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution (16:10) of our test model is only surpassed by the ‘Retina display’ of the new iPad (2048 x 1536 pixels). Apple MacBook Air 13.3-inch battery Asus speaks of a Full-HD resolution, which is not the same resolution as the normal Full-HD. Let us put it this way: the Asus panel displays more than the Full-HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. This is very promising and the icing on the cake is that the screen is a Super-IPS panel.The additional hardware in short: 64GB internal storage, microSD card of up to 32GB supported, an 8MP camera (back) and a 2MP camera (front).

Software
The Transformer Pad TF300T had already gotten on the Android 4.0 train. Apple 13 inch MacBook Air battery The Infinity TF700T continues this trend by running on the newest Google OS, Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS). As in the TF300T, our test model is running on the Minor-Release 4.0.3. This means that everything mentioned in the review of the Asus Transformer Pad TF300T about the Google OS and Apps is applicable to our test model. Fujitsu LifeBook S710 battery
Asus had already installed two cameras in the Transformer Pad TF300T (rear camera - 8MP with auto-focus). The "Infinity" is also equipped with two cameras, one on the back and one in the front, where, instead of a 1.2 MP sensor, the manufacturer has installed a 2MP camera. Fujitsu LifeBook S6311 battery
We believe Asus has used the same chip used in the TF300T for our review sample. The "Incredible Camera" has a lens of F2.2 specification which is supposedly very good even in poor lighting conditions. Fujitsu LifeBook S6310 battery The LED flash was not included in the TF300T , but it is on-board in the Asus Infinity TF700T. This was not a necessary addition. The performance of the flash is not discernible and makes the quality of pictures worse due to flash blowout lowering the quality of the images. Videos can be recorded in Full-HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels by the rear camera.The second camera is placed in the front (slightly to the right of center). The camera may not take very good pictures but it does perform well for video chatting. Fujitsu LifeBook S2210 battery
High MP numbers may look good on paper, but they aren’t the whole story. Small sensors installed in the tablets cause problems. The pictures usually lack sharpness and bright colors, which can get much worse in bad lighting conditions. Fujitsu LifeBook P8110 battery Asus hopes to counter these flaws by installing a rear camera module which can take good pictures even in bad lighting. They manage to do so – partially. The pictures are good enough to be snapshots. However, demanding photographers will want more sharpness and they will complain about the pale colors. As soon as the light drops, the picture quality drops. As such, Asus is not ahead of other tablet manufacturers when it comes to camera performance. The front camera is not suited for .

The Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T runs on four cores like many other tablets nowadays. The tablet uses the Nvidia SoC Tegra 3. The tablet stands out thanks to the higher clock frequency of the processor: 1.7GHz (max while one core is running) and 1.6GHz (all four running). Fujitsu LifeBook E8310 battery As all other models with Tegra 3 SoCs, the Asus Infinity has a fifth core which only kicks in for less-demanding tasks, so as to extend the battery life.

High resolution is an exceptional feature for a 10.1 inch display. The 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution (16:10) of our test model is only surpassed by the ‘Retina display’ of the new iPad (2048 x 1536 pixels). Fujitsu FMV-S8250 battery Asus speaks of a Full-HD resolution, which is not the same resolutio n as the normal Full-HD. Let us put it this way: the Asus panel displays more than the Full-HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. This is very promising and the icing on the cake is that the screen is a Super-IPS panel. Fujitsu FMV-S8225 battery
The additional hardware in short: 64GB internal storage , microSD card of up to 32GB supported, an 8MP camera (back) and a 2MP camera (front). Fujitsu FMV-S8220 battery
New tablets should have an easy time in the connectivity test. However , many voices spoke out about the poor WLAN and GPS performance in the Asus Transformer Pad Prime TF201. This was indeed the case, as we found in a later test, that the metal case of the Prime TF201 strongly affected the signal. Fujitsu FMV-R8290 battery
Of course, we have taken our time testing the newest tablet from Asus as it also uses a metal case. Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO MG75U battery The Infinity test model did not have the GPS weakness found in the Prime TF201. In different places (from the countryside to the city and even in the forest), the GPS signal was always perfect. The accuracy was always within 10m. Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO MG75SN battery
The wireless hardware is identical to the recently tested Transformer Pad TF300T . The Infinity uses 802.11b/g/n WLAN (only 2.4GHz frequency) and Bluetooth 3.0. A version with a 3G module has not yet been announced by Asus. The TF300T is available with 3G and even LTE. Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO MG75S battery We will need to wait and see if Asus decides to add these features on their flagship model as well. Most users who purchase such an expensive tablet will want to have the freedom to choose. Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO MG70SN battery
