what's going on everyone this is Clayton Youngberg once again coming at you from Android authority calm your number one source for all things Android today we've got a head-to-head Smackdown between two of a Sosa's top tablets on the market right now we've got our Asus Transformer Pad Infinity TF 700 T and then we have our transformer pad TF 300 T now a few slight differences within these tablets we've got our price point on the 700 T the infinity as we'll call it a 64 gigabyte version coming in at $599 and then our TF 300 TS coming in at $400 for a 16 gigabyte version so if you're looking at from a price standpoint you're already gonna be having having one chopped up for the TF 300 T now as you notice these are definitely constructed using different materials the 300 T is constructed using plastic we do have a metal piece for the little hinge on the mobile keyboard dock but even the keyboard dock here is encased in a little bit of plastic now it does stay cool with the plastic but the aluminum body of the 700 T is actually what's going to stay the coolest under high temperatures and stuff like that anyways we'll open both of these up and we'll shut the screen off just for now as you can see the keyboard docks are roughly constructed in the same manner we have our raised keys coming out of the body of the actual keyboard dock which is very classy and elegant and it's also more durable you can just rip the keys off of there then we do have different touch pads on the docks here just like that and a different bar to click on each of them now each of the docks do hold a battery and add about 5 hours of battery life to each device now they're each a 10.1 inch screen tablet both just about as thick as the other the 300 T is a little bit more thick than the Infinity we have our power buttons located in the same place on each device up in the top left and then on the Infinity we have a Seuss's chosen to put the volume rocker on the top right as opposed to the left of the tablet on the 300 T now the 300 T does feel a little bit lighter and it also feels a little more flimsy just due to the plastic construction it kind of has some give in the back and even the screen itself a little bit more give than the 700 T um the body also can separate from the screen ever so slightly under uh you know if you're kind of holding it wrong or something like that but they're both great we'll check out on the back here we are rocking an eight megapixel camera on each device but on the Infinity we have a LED flash as you can see as well as a small mic right there and our front facing camera on each device the Infinity is rocking a 2 megapixel camera and at 720p with capabilities of HD 720p and then our 300 that TF 300 T is reckoned a 1.2 megapixel camera now as far as software they're both the exact same software we're running Android 4.0.3 on each they each have the wave share UI by Asus we do have a much brighter screen on the TF 700 T due to its LED backlit super IPS + display now the 300 T is only the IPS so as you can see here on our 300 T we just simply have our volume scroll and our auto brightness while on the 700 T we actually have our super IPS + mode that we can actually view this outside and just have great viewing angles and stuff like that now the apps that come on each of these are basically the same we just have our stock ace u s-- apps here on the Left we have the Asus vibe the app backup app Locker the same here on the TF 700 T and in my opinion the 700 T displays things just a bit better the 300 T is a little more reflective it seems as though there's actually more space between the top of the screen and the actual LCD screen within now there is Corning Gorilla Glass 2 on the 700 T which is going to protect against scratches and it's just all around a little bit better display on much better in terms of resolution now our resolution on the 300 T is at 1280 by 800 resolution and then on the TF 700 T V infinity we've got 1920 by 1200 resolution so it says much better we have really good pixel density on each so they both look great anyways we'll go ahead and check out our status bar and go into the settings scroll all the way down on each you can see that under the about tablet for the TF 300 T we rock and Android 4.0.3 that is the same on the 700 T I wouldn't be surprised if these devices do get jellybean in the future so we'll just hold out for that anyways I do notice that the colors are a little bit more rich on the 700 T so we'll go ahead and go to YouTube and we'll just view a similar video on e so as you can see here we are running the same exact video on each tablet the 700 T does have a little bit more striking colors than the 300 T and it looks like our refresh rate on the 300 T is a little bit lower we're getting some cycling on the screen and stuff but both of them are displaying the video extremely nicely so yeah our colors are a little more rich on the 702 into the super IPS plus display but it's not that big of a deal they both run at a very very high rate and they're both great for viewing videos HD gaming and stuff like that now the Tegra 3 is awesome for gaming we have our different apps like globe all pre-installed so we can actually game hard so we've killed all the apps on each tablet we're gonna go ahead and run a quadrant test on each of them see which one comes out faster according to the quadrant scores we have the results of our benchmark tests the Infinity came in at a score of 4000 and then the TF 300 T came in at 3900 91 so we're cutting extremely close both of these are crazy fast tablets now our CPU scored 10,000 245 on the TF 300 T and we got 8000 637 on the 700 T which is a little bit strange considering the 700 T is in fact clocked higher but we got let's see 3900 for memory and 2800 for memory on the 700 T that is so we're basically just across the board even now both of these devices have a few differences on the actual body we'll just go ahead and hold those up side-by-side we do have the micro HDMI on each of these as well as the mini SD on our headphone jack is located and if occasion on the 700 t than this on the 300 T which is right here but both of these have a nice slim profile they look great in their keyboard adapters we'll go ahead and put those together show you the different thicknesses of each so as you can see there are differences in a thickness between each of these devices when they're in their mobile dock the 700 T is just a little bit thinner and it's actually you know a little bit heavier just very slightly but we do have our 16 pin connector on each and then we have on the other side full SD card readers and USB 2.0 on each so either way you guys these are both great devices if you want to spend the extra money for a little bit higher clock speed on the Tegra 3 a little bit extra storage and then a nice aluminum construction I'd say go for the 700 T but if you just need the basic internals of the 700 T with a smaller price point and still a really durable device with a great multitasking keyboard dock I would suggest going for the 300 T but what are your guys opinions go ahead and drop us a line in the comments visit our website we'll have a written review up for these and just go ahead and tell us what you think but anyways guys thanks for watching we always appreciate it and have a good one
