it seems nice.. when you install your phone into the station you have a 3G tablet with its own battery. when you take it out you have your phone + charged from the tablets battery I guess :).

Why would you want to dock your phone into your tablet PC? This is a big waste of resource!

give us a phone, 16 Oct 2012what's with the 4.7" screen Asus?! I want a phone in m... more4" inch max? These are multimedia consumption phones, not fisher price phones! Why not try a 14" inch tv at home, believing that use atleast 25" or tv at home! Asus released smaller phones too, why dont complaint then! I assume that u got this 4" is correct from some closed ui company which advertises with thumb! Wait for another year, they will intro 4.5" screen do some diff marketing campaign for that! Did u really think when that company says 3.5" is perfect size, what about people who believed it so much. The bottom line is, if u dont like a phone, just try to crticize constructively even if u re a fan of other company! Some even said here at forum that side metal looks like apple, just see the pic and comment. Dont be blind!

Even Asus knows JB needs 2GB ram quadcore specs to keep it smooth.
another flagship model that will finally crush the single core lumia 900 for good in been lag free

I love how they photoshop the presentation pictures of padfone2 and make the top bezel look like it's twice as small than what it looks like in reality - shouldn't it be marked as misleading to customers?

UDTQ, 16 Oct 20124.7" can be incredibly small and user friendly. As lon... moremy thoughts exactly - dimensions are almost identical to SGSIII. But the screen on the Asus is smaller (4.7 vs 4.8) with even smaller screen estate on it (capacitive buttons takes the space on the screen this time)
Wish it would either be 4.3 inch or have thinner bezel - GSIII is oversized but at least it fits incredible screen in.

Kevin , 16 Oct 2012What a phone? Can 'Poor' IPhone 5 race with? HW wise, S4 Pro SoC (Qualcomm APQ8064) is having twice as powerful CPU as current iPhone 5 offering when run on JB (due to being quad core indeed) and just about the same GPU performance (Andreno 320) when (again) under JB.
iPhone5 is still GPU king, but quadcores will help S4Pro to compete in rendering even though there's much more pixels to be drawn on its screen despite the resolution.
So again, HW wise it beats iPhone5 heavily, software wise...well, Jellybean is like 10 years ahead of iOS for some time already
but if you play games, iPhone is still the best bet if you don't mind smaller screens
