hey guys this is eric franklin from cnet com and today I'm taking a first look at a tablet I've been pretty excited about for quite some time it's the asus transformer pad infinity tf700 one this is the fully upgraded version of the transformer pass as ace uses premier android tablet when I say fully upgraded asus really went to town on the specs on this thing it has a 1.9 gigahertz NVIDIA Tegra 4 processor with a 2560 by 1600 resolution screen there's also two gigabytes of RAM Bluetooth 3.0 a micro-hdmi port microsd a 5 megapixel back camera and a 1 point 2 megapixel front camera on the keyboard dock there says USB 3.0 port there is a full size of SD port right here and there's a full size battery in the keyboard dock as well as one in the tablet portion of the device performance is smooth the 2560 by 1600 screen is really really sharp as you can see here text is really sharp especially a life that Asus included their super IPS mode so the screen gets really really bright there's one thing I'm disappointed with is the overall build quality of the new Infiniti it doesn't have that aluminum metal feel it's more plastic key it's also a little bit thicker it's probably a little bit heavier than the last generation infinity I guess asus felt they have to sacrifice somewhere with all these world-beating high-end specs in there they have the sacrifice on something in order to get price right and speaking of price asus tells me they're thinking somewhere between 400 and 500 dollars that doesn't nearly narrow it down but they just haven't decided yet as far as release date we're looking at somewhere around november of 2013 once again i'm eric franklin and this has been a first look at the asus transformer had infinity tf700
