Padphone have to wait for Ice Cream Sandwich

Asus catches our eyes with a creative idea, they release their Padphone which merge mobile phone and tablet pc last month, this is a creative idea for portable device. However, have you found that Padphone is just a Dummy? If you are sharp-eyed, you will notice that Padphone stopped in the main interface and never change when you watch the video or the picture of Padphone. Therefore, it should be a Dummy.

According Asus's design, smartphone is the main body of Padphone. When it works on smartphone, the user interface is mobile phone. When smartphone docks inside the tablet, the user interface is tablet pc in the bigger screen. Smartphone is the core, tablet pc is just a screen with speaker, I/O connector and battery, tablet pc is without CPU, so smartphone have to play the role of CPU. Considering the current Android OS system, Asus have to install two different version in the smartphone -- Android 2.3 and 3.0. However, as we all know, 3.0 Honeycomb couldn't work with smartphone.


However, Asus deny above opinion. Benson Lin said, actually, this device will be released until Christmas and it will come with the latest Android OS. But they don't recognize Padphone have to wait until Google develop Ice Cream Sandwich.

Next version of Android -- Ice Cream Sandwich  will integrate Honeycomb and Gingerbread, therefore, will integrate smartphone and tablet pc. It has two different user interface, which is consistent with Asus Padphone design concepts, one system with two experience.
If Asus want to launch the real Padphone (no Dummy), it all depends on Google.

How to choose an Android Tablet PC

Article from: http://www.dootar.com/

Android Tablet PC heat up nowadays. More than hundreds of Android Tablet PC on the market. Which one is the best for you? I can give you some suggestion.

What will you do with an Android Tablet?

This question is very important. It all depends on yourself. There are many application for Android Tablet, so it can complete many task. The main functions of Android Tablet are: surf internet with WIFI or 3G (Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Skype, email, etc.), watch video and listen music, reading ebook and documents and play games. Almost all the Android Tablet have above functions.

Main specification

1. Operation system

Different version of operation system can support different function. However, many application require the system should be above Android 2.1. Therefore, at present Android 2.1 is minimum requirement. My suggestion is Android 2.2, because it can support Adobe Flash, you can watch video on a normal webpage. Android 2.3 does not have big difference with 2.2. Android 3.0 has been released, but in my opinion, it takes time to test and not stable as 2.2. (I am writing this article on April, 2011)

2. Sceen Size

7 inch, 8 inch, 9.7 inch, 10 inch -- small size is lighter but image is small when you watch video or webpage. Big size is heavier. It depends on yourself.

3. CPU

CPU is the most important. It decides the reflection and the price of a Tablet PC. The CPU with cortex A8 or A9 is the best at present, such as Freescale and Telechips. CPU VIA is the cheapest one. The difference of CPU can have more than US$50 difference of price. My suggestion is to take CPU with cortex A8 or A9, it works much faster.

4. RAM

RAM is another important element which decides the reflection of Tablet PC. The bigger RAM is the better reflection of Tablet PC. At this moment, 512MB is the most popular size on the market.

5. Touch screen

Resistive touch panel is more accurate when you touch a point. However, more and more manufacturer use capacitive touch panel because it is faster (no delay when you type on the keyboard) and support multi-touch. Therefore, capacitive touch panel is the better choice.

CPU, RAM and Touch screen decides the reflection of a Tablet PC. They are the most important specification when you are looking for a Tablet.

6. ROM

ROM is the memory. It is like a hard disk. So the bigger the better. But this is not very important, because you can extend the memory capacity with a TF card.

7. Camera

The camera is almost useless unless the Tablet PC is with Android 3.0 operation system (Android 3.0 supports video talk).

Main function

1. G-sensor

G-sensor is the great creation from Apple company. It becomes the basic function for all Tablet PC. With this function, you can not only rotate the picture or menu, but also play G-sensor games such as racing car etc.

2. Adobe Flash

Tablet PC which support Adobe Flash can enable you watch video on www webpage. I think you don't wanna buy a Tablet PC and still read small webpage like in a mobile phone.

3. Multi-touch

Multi-touch is another interesting function. With this function, you can enlarge a picture or webpage or documents by your two finger. It is also another basic function for a Tablet PC.

In the end, I personnally recommend two models of Android Tablet PC for your reference -- 70S1 and 10A9. 70S1 is 7 inch Android 2.2 Tablet PC with CPU cortex A8. 10A9 is 10 inch Android 2.2 Tablet PC with CPU cortex A9.  They are the best chinese Android Tablet PC at present.

Design and Spec
High definition is the advantage of T2. With definition 1366 X 768, looking picture or watching video is very clear. The display is colorful and brightness. There are little Android Tablet PC with such a high definition at present. High definition must be the trends in future.

T2 have three button on the front cover -- Return, Menu and Home button. These buttons are very useful when you play the Tablet PC. This is a very good design.
On the upper side, it has the volumn +/- keys, Power button, Search button, one reset hole and one recovery hole. Volumn +/- keys becomes very important for Android Tablet PC. When you are watching video in full screen, you can increase and reduce the volumn through the keys rather than closing full screen and control the volumn by touch screen. Search button is the unique design of T2. When you click this button, Google Search will come out.

On the left side, it has one HDMI, one mini USB connector, DC-in jack and Earphone Jack. On the back, it has one TF card slot and one SIM card slot under a small slide cover. Built 3G is very necessary for all the portable device. You can send email, talk with friends or business on Skype or MSN when you are outside. It also has two 1W speaker on the back. It is louder enough when you listen music or watch movie in a room.


Besides its high definition, the reason we named it the king of Android Tablet PC is its excellent device inside. CPU is Nvidia Tegra2 Dual ARM Cortex A9, processor speed 1GHZ, Integrated Graphics 2D/3D Accelerator. This is the best CPU for Android Tablet at present. RAM is 1GB DDR II. Please note that most Android Tablet is with 512MB RAM. Capacitive multi-touch Panel. Watching movie on line and play 3D games is very smooth. We test it by Quadrant Advanced. Just showed as below. It is much better than most of the famous brand Android device.

The battery of T2 is 6000mAh. It can work around 3 hours when you turn on the WIFI and around 5 hours when you turn it off. The capacity of battery is normal. It is enough if you play or work with Android Tablet outside.

Conclusion
T2 must be the king of chinese Android Tablet PC. Best CPU, best RAM, best touchn panel and best design. T2 just shows us what an Android Tablet PC can be. It designs for OEM. You can select the functions you need in T2 and delete the functions you don't need. Because if you need all the functions, the cost is very high.
