We just buy new phone last 2 month ago. 1st Sony Xperia ZR LTE (MYR1400) which my wife prefer waterproof and small phone. 2nd is Asus Fonepad 7 (MYR719). Previously we are using Sony Xperia Acro S (lost-stolen) and Samsung Galaxy Y Pro (Very durable).
Performance.
Surprising very good for cheap but branded. Some time little lag but not obvious. UI simple, friendly and light. Gaming also smooth and big screen! Dead Trigger look very vivid no lag at all. However not on par with Xperia ZR which is better spec (adreno 320)
Connectivity and Internet
Quite fast but limited to 3G. However our home do not have 4G coverage yet. Still Xperia ZR more faster in browsing internet etc. Wifi is strong! Samsung get 2 bar, Asus get 3 bar, samsung get 1 bar, Asus get 2 bar and wider too. My friend samsung note 2.
Display
7 inch 216ppi, I thought not so beautiful/sharp but I was wrong. Enable vivid colour, it look much better than samsung note 8 which much more pricier. It clear, sharp and fun to browsing, navi even watch movie too. 4.55 inch Xperia ZR to small for me...
Audio
Superb! Loud and clear
I am also using earphone Beat Audio clone(too cheap) and very good sound. Xperia ZR speaker worse here.
Call function
To big to hold but i do not care much since prefer whatsapp, Facebook, Email, browsing etc....however voice quality very bad here. Dunno why. Well just plug the earphone... settle... Xperia ZR is true phone here.
Battery life
Li-Po 3950 mAh battery. Quick to charge and so long endurance. No need to worry if forgot the charger. Just enable "smart saving" and having fun all the day. In Standy mode it consume very-so-little watt, almost none (base in the graph). In average using, it's hold so long. Downside, it consume a quite lot while gaming. Xperia ZR however similir when stanby and average use but less consume watt while gaming compare to Asus 7. However this is not apple-to-apple comparison.
At last
Very value for money and much better than most mid-rage mid-size tablet mostly sammy tab. This is i am waiting for. My wishlist is nexus 7 2013 but no phone call. Hard to find accessories since unpopular in Malaysia.
Hope
Voice quality need improvement
Screen is just fine but prefer atleast ~330ppi for more pleasure...
Camera with flash. 5MP is fine for me.
More speed in 3G and option to LTE
More battery capacity and longer life.
Bundle with accessories like casing and screen protector.
Dust-proof and splash proof.
Keep the UI. I like it!
Quick update...owhh i just update to 4.3 just few minutes ago :-)

I bought this 1 month ago
It works great. And even games like real racing 3 working perfectly. I love this, but the problem is battery life. Not running no longer if u use it hardly. Anyway this is one of the best, better than galaxy tab.

Also the camera is decent quality for every day photos with good lightin and it supports Wireless Display but no MHL or HDMI output.
Battery life with 3G on very heavy usage is 1 day , medium usage with 3G on is around 2 days including surfing/reading/listening music.

Its not yet launched in India, although its announced. Asus has confirmed that they won't be getting the stock for this till 29th November, so you should be able to buy it during the 2nd week of December. And yes you can use it for that.
