2012-02-29
hey everyone it's jessica's all court from cnet here at Mobile World Congress 2012 in Barcelona this is the sous padfone and padfone station it's a lot like the transformer prime and that it gives you this nice phone that you can then slide into a docking station and yet either a tablet-like functionality or even the kind of like a laptop functionality almost there not a lot of processing you can do on here but it does give you this keyboard so you can't buy them separately or together the phone itself is a nice ice cream sandwich phone it is Ice Cream Sandwich very native and plain style no skins on top of that so if you like this pure experience then you are going to like this phone the PadFone runs off of a Qualcomm dual-core 1.5 gigahertz processor the tablet itself has a 10.1 inch screen with 1280 x 800 pixels there's also an 8 megapixel camera on that when you use the PadFone with it and a same thing with the front-facing 1.3 megapixel camera so all that is taking advantage of the phone here let's say that you want to respond on email somewhere take notes during a meeting play your video and you can use the station as sort of a stand so you will enlarge it instead of having 4.3 inches to view your videos you'll have 10.1 inches and everything will be stored on the phone itself optionally you can pick up this extra accessory it is the stylus headset and while it does work as a stylist you'll also be able to press a button and via bluetooth it will answer your phone call if your phone rings while it's docked so will be available in early q2 that will be 2012 and it's going to be available in europe and asia and yes even the US no pricing yet but keep your papers on cnet com and we'll give you all the information we have as soon as we have it
