Official ASUS PadFone S Thread

[caterham7]

Guys any demo unit of Padfone S in the West?

Passed by Jurong Point yesterday. Demo unit available at one of the Basement 1 IT shops, either Digital Style or Challenger

Just got mine at Sim Lim Square Concept store.

let the pics do the talking.

wtf that bezel.

I saw the set at funan yesterday... shockingly thick phone.. a little sad of how dull the design is, especially coming from Padfone Infinity owner which had such a magnificent design and build quality

I played with the padfone S for quite some time.... actually I feel that as a phone, its quite well thought out.

I particularly like the PCLink feature, with this I can remote control the phone using my pc. Very useful when you are the type who receive tons of messages, you can reply them from your PC without looking at the phone.....

p.s. You can get similar functionality with airdroid app.

hmmm no indication of how much the price of the docking station would be.. but looking at the specs, $399 is pretty good..

docking station is 199sgd. just saw price at the online store:

ASUS Store

not bad already.

wtf that bezel.

Very thick bezel
Asus, please trim it down.

 

[ah_cleo]

based on my usage for past few days, phone although abit boring but usage buay pai leh.. tablet agree that bezel too thick but i think is due to dual speaker..

some updates.. i have purchased the wireless charger and was happy that the charging was quite fast. tried on my nexus 5 and it works too..

 

[garychengjw]

Tempting to get one to play with.

May i know how's the viewing angles under the sun and normal usage on phone and docking station?

Battery life, does it drain rapidly?

since u have both the nexus 5 and padfone s, can u help give an impression of how u think the 2 compare to each other? batt life and smoothness all that.

I saw in earlier page that it was 399

 

[ah_cleo]

[ashawnk]

Just bought the Padfone S along with the Pad station from sitex via M1.

Anyone here using the wireless changer?

Care to share the performance?

 

[ah_cleo]

i think the wireless should be the same as other wireless charger. tried once and can charge my nexus 5.
