Any alternative tablet recommendations to the TF201 Prime? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hey everyone, so I have the opportunity to trade in my Transformer Prime for a refund. Any recommendations for another tablet?

Where did you manage to get the refund?
Depends on your usage, if you draw or design the galaxy note 10.1 would be the optimal choice
If you're into gaming or just all rounded functionality and support I'd say the Nexus 7, or if you type a lot just hook a bluetooth keyboard

Don't forget the Infinity tab as an option, unless you like a smaller tablet version (7 inch) then go with the Nexus 7 or hell even a Galaxy Note 2 if you want to go the phablet route, when it releases soon of course. I'd personally say Nexus 7 though.

Got Amazon to refund my purchase of the Transformer Prime. Do you think the new Galaxy tablet and/or the Nexus 7 is better than the transformer infinity?

To my knowledge even the Infinity even if it's not that bad, still has io issues comparable with the Prime. If you're going for performance and after purchase support i don't think you can go wrong with the Nexus if you can accept the 7" screen

i dont see all those problems. my prime runs very smooth i do love it every day

If the op is returning the Prime due to i/o and lag, then infinity/tf300 can be crossed off the list of alternatives.

I just purchased a Nexus 7 for an in-dash car install (replacing factory stereo). I've been playing with it and I am really liking it. I hate to say it, but at over half the cost of my TFP, its so much better at everything.
BUT... If I were going to REPLACE my TFP, it would be with something with a 10 inch screen. The 7" screen is just a little too small for every day use. Nexus 10 maybe?

Get samsung galaxy note 10.1
It stable, fast and worth all money.

Did you see the rumor today about Google coming out with a Samsung made Nexus 10.1 tablet?

I have an iPad3 and a Prime.
Prime just bricked, so I bought a Galaxy Note 10.1"
(must have of both worlds )
The Prime was actually a crappy device, compared to iPad and Galaxy.
Prime had terrible touchscreen sensitivity.
And froze all the time, when it was multitasking. (on all ROMS, and I tryed them all)
The Galaxy Note is just as smooth as the iPad3 in daily use.
Get this one!

Saw that too. The Nexus 7 is still an ASUS product. I loved my XOOM. A 10.1" Samsung Nexus is compelling to me, especially with the hi-res screen, if you can wait . . .

Im going with the new wikipad. Remember you can a blutooth keyboard case. The reason why i choose this tablet is because it come with a controller that attaches to the tablet itself. This is a new tablet so iwll be waiting for the reviews tho. I also going to trust the review this time

When i used to have a prime i thought to myself, this SEEMS like a disapointment, when i got my note 10.1..........i KNEW this was a disapointment.
At first i kept wondering how the early prime users could say stuff like, "ive not touched my computer since ive had the prime" or im on it everyday",.........i just didnt get it, not with my semi functional prime...........after having the not..........i get it
Go for what suites your needs, right now there seems to be two android tabs that are ahead of the pack right now
- a decent asus 7 inch budget tab
- a decent samsung 10.1 inch tab, that happens to be one of the best android tabs around with good note and drawing capability
Heres my user review of the Note 10.1
Im a rom enthusiest, i like streamlined high performance, **** loads of driver support roms, but im having such a good experience with my note stock rom, that i dont have that "itch" to rom, which i hope communicates how im liking this tab
Check out this design thread to see how good artist, and not so good (just kidding fellas, all works appreaciated:goodartists can do with the tab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861201&page=13
Now seing as i have the note 10.1, i can give you what are cons for me, and perhaps for you, no news on whether some of these will be implemented over time
Cons
Currently, no usb to ethernet support
Currently no ntfs support, with usb sticks/hdd drives
Currently, no way to power external hdd drives through usb dongles

Currently dev support seems slow, saying that, a big thankyou to all devs supporting us note users, mucho apprechiado your trabailho
Charging the battery takes a little longer then the prime, all notes, not just a fluke in my case
Pros
Consistant performance, even in power save mode
SURPRISINGLY good battery life (i think im jaded by the prime on this), not matter what im running the battery performs admirably, whereas i distinctively remember the prime battery lossing juice pretty damn quickly when watching videos or playing games for instance (disclaimer, i think its safe to say my particular prime was less then stellar, so my opinion IS jaded by that fact, if others say their primes work wonderfully, well, good for you.......it was'nt in my case}
I could comfortably get 1 hour per 10 %, usuallly slighly more, for a total of at LEAST 10 hours, and thats with constant use
Heres my battery stats
Screen is just as bright as the prime, when i compared them for the brief time i had the two together
Im sure im missing a few pros and cons here, but i cant be arsed to write more, :silly:, think ive written to much anyway, daily quota or something:silly:
Hopefully someone her can review the 7 incher, if the note does not float your boat, goodluck with whatever you decide,

Former Galaxy Tab users?

I was wondering if there any users with the Flyer/View that also have the galaxy tab that can give us a good comparison review. I have been looking on google at the few reviews that are out there and they are all over the place. A couple of the reviews mention the flyer getting sluggish when running several apps. All of the reviews seem to have been done using sense 2.1. I didn't see any type of performance review using a different launcher on the flyer like ADW EX. Really like how the flyer looked compared to the galaxy tab but I was wondering if it was worth giving up root access and all the custom rom's/themes/hacks/tweaks that are available for the galaxy tab.
Yes i've used the galaxy tab for 6 months before i bought the flyer.I really liked the tab but the flyer is much faster en the touchscreen is way better i think.Also the sense launcher on the flyer is great!On my tab i used launcher pro and i've tried it on my flyer but sense is better on the flyer.I do not have any problems running several apps at the same time.It always works flawlessly!On the tab when i opened the photogallery it took a while to load the photos,on the flyer you see the photos within 3 seconds or so.I loved the tab but the flyer is better.

Also obvious the Flyer has a Wacom digitiser. This also means you have a Notes, Office and PDF app that can make use of stylus input.
I thought the battery life of the Flyer was better, but with the latest Tab update the battery life has improved. Finally, I prefer the HTC Sense UI over the Samsung overlay over Android.
I've had my Evo View for a week and it feels like the next generation of Galaxy Tab. More fits on the screen, its faster and has much more memory than the Tab.

Galaxy tab is light but feels cheap. Flyer is a little heavey and difficult to hold unless I put it in a case. Overall, I like Flyer better.
i dont have the samsung Galaxy but I try it at shop (BQ Da vinci too) and I like both. Money, money, money...
But finally, I decide buy the Flyer... and at the moment im really happy for it.
The flyer is really expensive but is a great product : D: D: D
I also have both the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7/3G and the HTC Evo View 4g...
Given that 7 months is considered an eternity in today's rapidly advancing gadget world, it goes without saying that the HTC Evo View is a considerably superior tablet device when compared to the Galaxy Tab 7.
Little things that always annoyed me about my Galaxy Tab 7, like the longish boot times and somewhat sluggish screen transitions (I'm using Launcher Pro+ on both), are completely rectified on my Evo View.
Personally, I have no interest in HTC's Sense homescreen replacement (it waste too much screen real-estate), but I absolutely prefer the work they've done on the associated apps to make them much more tablet-friendly, all of of which work so well that I actually prefer them to those on my Honeycomb-based Motorola Xoom or Asus Transformer, and certainly over what Samsung did on the Galaxy Tab 7.
As far as concerns of 'sluggishness' on the Evo View, I have yet to experience any, and I've had the device since the day it went on sale, using it for hours each day.
Additionally, I initially tried several different HS replacements when I bought my Evo View (including ADW EX. Go Launcher, et al) and found Launcher Pro+ to offer the best compromise between performance and features.
All things considered, the HTC Evo View is easily the best 7 inch tablet currently on the market, with great build-quality, exceptional ergonomics, a speedy processor, expertly developed tablet-centric apps, and surprisingly good battery life - It's a winner!

It truly is a LOVE/HATE relationship. N-Trig is nowhere near as accurate or smooth as Wacom, but the price and battery savings weigh in its favor. If I am slow and steady with the pen and THINK about what I am writing, the N-Trig is acceptable. If I hurry, like trying to take notes during a telephone conversation, it skips letters, vectors, and is generally a PITA. That's when I really miss my HP 2740p convertible Tablet PC with Wacom.

I like them both. In fact, I had sold my original Tab and bought a new one, which I received today. It was rooted and flashed as soon as I could download the files needed. The Flyer has a faster processor, but my Tab runs just as fast running Overcome's Gingerbread OC'd to 1.4. I would honestly give the nod to the Tab at this moment because it is leaps and bounds beyond the Flyer on the development side. I am happy with the Flyer as it is, but once there is a HC port or official release, it will be the perfect tablet. The 7" form factor is the absolute best. For what it is worth, the Tab OC'd to 1.4 hits right around 2100 on the Quadrant scores and the Flyer right around 1900. Like I said, for what it is worth.
Netflix works on Tab but not on the Flyer.

In addition to my above post:
The Tab plays my ripped blu-rays (1080/mp4) perfectly fine and smooth! I get an error on the Flyer with the same micro sd card and the same movie files about the file type not being supported.
I like the keyboard on the Flyer more from an auto-correct standpoint. Typing is equally good on both otherwise.

Thanks for all of the feedback. I was very wary of anything samsung after an experience with a bad Epic. But I was willing to get the galaxy tab. I got the HTC View instead. So far I am liking it but I gotta say that I am tempted to return it and get the tab instead. I am sorely missing being rooted.

Since you already have the View, jump into the Marketplace and find yourself a decently priced Tab. I do find myself using the Tab a lot more. Just last night I flashed the newest version of Overcome.
I am not holding my breath, but as I had stated, when the Flyer gets HC, it will be perfect!

I got a HP Touchpad for $299 which was a deal before they were discontinued. I returned it after the big announcement. I'm using a wifi G-Tab 10.1 temporarily until the 32GB 3G version finally gets launched in the UK which is now supposed to be early October. I tried the HTC Jetstream but it weighs a ton and the video implementation is pitiful so I returned it. The G-Tab is executed well, has great video support, is reasonably quick, and is thin and light. Until something revolutionary comes along in a 10" inch size, that's what I'm going to stick with.

Said user is curious about any SGS2 users having a tablet. I'd say this is relevant to the SGS2 in general.
I want an iPad 2.
Looking to get the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer,having read many reviews this tablet appears to be the best of them all, the new 10.1 Galaxy Tab looks very slick but is vastly overpriced and having no USB port is a big no no, the Motorola Xoom also looks nice but again vastly overpriced, the fact that the keyboard dock on the transformer adds another 9 hours battery life is superb, im looking at possibly selling my laptop and then buying the transformer.
Needless to say i wouldn't be buying an iPad as i cannot stand restriction.
iPad. Not really my choice, it was a present. But it's a great device for what I use it for...which is literally only web browsing and a bit of gaming (on whichever free games are out on App Store)
HOWEVER, I fully intend to upgrade to one of the first few quad-core tablets -(Android tablets of course) - I'm also not very impressed with Honeycomb, (based on the few demo models I've played with in electronic and department stores)
I know they say this year, but I happy to wait (seeing as the iPad is perfectly good for what I do atm, which is browsing, and occasional gaming during TV breaks/commercials)

Nonsense.
Look at the header for the general forum.
Discussion about Samsung Galaxy S II (general chat, tips & tricks, etc)
This thread has no meaning or relevance at all to the above.
If I was curious about what colour socks SGS2 users prefer, by your criteria that would be an acceptable thread topic.
What tablet/what pc/what socks/what favoured sexual position... whatever.
Owning a SGS2 doesn't justify any of it - all irrelevant.
Relevant... ownership of the S2 can influence choice of tablet, but not the colour of your socks nor sexual preference
I have a S2 but I want an ipad 2 because I feel I'm getting the best android experience on the phone and would like something different.
However I've been fortunate to get my hands on the wifi 10.1 to play with until Wednesday and I'm extremely impressed with the browsing experience (using Dolphin HD) but the app support for Honeycomb devices is frankly pathetic... so it's looking like the Ipad 2 for me unless there's a Xoom like discount on the GT.
See sig
i had an iPad and moved onto Galaxy Tab 10.1
Galaxy Tab 10.1 definitely has the form factor that i enjoy but it lacks in quite a few areas compared to the SGS2. Multimedia playback capability, snappiness, and expandable memory slot
Ive got iconia a100 on order just waitng for delivery . I have an iPad its too big to carry round was looking for portable version. 7" is perfect (well my wife thinks so LOL he he so the a100 everything going for it plus its first tab with 3.2 android and Acer haven't skinned it so its pure android. 3.2 has sorted all the bugs out.

Are you able to offer any insight on which is better for you etc, rather than just showing off?

Alternative to the prime

Guys,
Thanks to this forum I found out about the GPS issue and was able to cancel my order with OD on time. Once again, XDA saved me some troubles.
It seems this problem is very (!) similar to the one I had with my Tmobile Samsung phone. Nothing was able to fix that GPS.
Anyways, I have a problem.
I MUST buy a tablet this week to give to someone as a gift. GPS is important.
Considering the Prime is out of question, which one would you recommend? I'm researching and doing my homework, but it is also good to hear from you guys.
Thanks in advance.

If you need something right away. Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a good goto android tablet.
If you don't need it ASAP, wait until Q2 2012. They'll be rolling out a lot of new gadgets.

Realistic advice: Unless you want your friend to be ASUS's corporate guinea pig while they fix all of the quirks in the device, get the GTab or something comparable. Giving someone a gift in which they have to immediately be aware of it's defects and the possibility of RMA'ing it is a really crappy gift.
Thanks guys, but the GPS MUST be totally functional. Device WILL be used for navigation with Sygic.
My vote would also be for the galaxy tab 10.1 or 8.9. They work and look great. As a present unless the person likes messing with these the tab seems to be working well. Too many issues right now with the prime jmo. Btw I am typing this on a tab 10.1 but I have a prime on order. Not sure if I am going to cancel it or not. The geek in me still wants it so I probably won't.

I am also vacillating because of the concerns raised in this forum, however, due to the inconsistencies with reports of bad performance and stability, I am wondering if there was an issue with just initial batches and that newer ones (just built) are less likely to exhibit any of the serious issues raised with GPS and wifi?
I am going to wait for my (expansys-usa) order to be fulfilled. I don't think that a more appealing tablet will come out before June.
Is there some correlation with the defective (or working) units and a specific build date, build location and/or batch number?

well if you want a sub par device on specs, display, perfaormance and looks, get something else. If you want something that will truly be next level tableting, get the Prime. buff said!
THE POWER IS YOURS! choose wisely and don't settle for something less based on a few gripes a minority of users been having. if you absolutely need GPS...then get the prime and external Bluetooth GPS receiver bring in the new year with the most powerful Android tablet in the world. and will hold that title for the next 4-6 months easily. maybe longer.
it'll be silly to pay$499 for another tab that is outdated specwise and consumer wise. when you can pay the same price and have cutting edge technology. galaxy tab sux anyways..lmao touchwiz over honeycomb blows and lags even more than other build or versions of honeycomb. lmfao
Another vote for the Galaxy Tab 10 or 8

Sony Tablet looks thick and clunky to me. Besides Sony product integration with ir remote control, i don't think the Sony looks interesting at all. plus, it's expensive.

its actually pretty nice. not as thick as it looks. I've played around with it in person. its a decent tegra2 tab. but it wasn't as much of a success as Sony would've hoped for. alot of issues with lag surrounding it. if anything I were to get other than Prime, it would be the Galaxy tab 7.7. it will have the best display and most powerful out of the Tab lineup. that galaxy note is really nice also. eliminate a device and that can be used as a tablet also. that 5.3in screen is huge and beautiful for a phone/tablet.
Guys, listen to what the dude sez. He needs good GPS. This is for his friend, not for you.
The only Android tabs with good wireless performance are the Xoom and the Samsung GT 10/8.9. I like the Xoom since it has more I/O (SD slot, micro-USB), but it's heavy and its look is at best industrial. So the only proven choice is the SGT.
If it's for a woman, suggest the 8.9 for lighter weight and easier handling, w/o sacrificing resolution. In fact, if it's for on-the-go use, you may also consider the SGT 7 Plus for yet more portability. The 8.9 would be the sweet spot, though.

the 7.7 version is the best one. more powerful and better display. coming out anyday now really. if it has to get it now, go with the 8.9 like emote said. or maybe even the Note or Galaxy player

choose wisely and don't settle for something less based on a few gripes a minority of users been having. if you absolutely need GPS...then get the prime and external Bluetooth GPS receiver bring in the new year with the most powerful Android tablet in the world. and will hold that title for the next 4-6 months easily. maybe longer.

Wow, I didnt know 50-60% failure rate on GPS and other things were "a few grips a minority of users been having"...really? Then why are the forums exploding with mostly negative reviews? the minority and very very lucky are the ones that have all their dreams in a good tablet.
I am quickly becoming one that am tired of factory reseting my tablet 2-3 or more times a day because the screen is unresponsive or it just decides to do random screen selections. I have high hopes that maybe..just maybe it will be fixed in ICS...but i'm a realist.
oh, and Acer and HTC will be to market soon..so the "next 4-6 months easily..maybe longer" statement is based on factless and honestly niave speculation.
By the tablet and play the lottery. 50% chance you'll get a superb device...50% chance you'll get a 499 POS. You have to decide for yourself if your willing to deal.
As of now, i'm cancelling my other Newegg preorder and will probably return this one..but since i've got 30 days to return to gamestop..and the the manager has seen first hand my problem..(oh..and the district manager returned his on friday becuase of the screen issues and lockups...) i'm going to play with it for a bit longer and see what happens mid january if at least on thing can go right with this device...release of ICS.
Hey it's the new year. Let's give peeps the benefit of the doubt and not be so quick on the trigger. Peace and good will and all that. Think positive thoughts.

just take a look at the polls. on TransformwrForums there's a poll asking if people have issues. more than 70% said No, perfectly happy with it. check out all the various polls here. all of them show Prime in good light. people with issues are the minority, point blank. plus actually xda is the only blowing up with people complaining. TransformerForum is moving along very smoothly without all the threads of complainers. most of these people with issues are same ones posting a million different threads on same issue.
yes, the issues are real. but alot of them are overexaggerated. look at all the various polls in this section people made to try to make prime look bad. all it did was back fire and show the majority doesn't have issue. like the wifi poll shows majority don't have issues. the other poll on various issues. majority voted no problems and completely satisfied with device. sorry buddy, my device works perfectly fine. no issues. and do do most of other Prime owners also. its always the negative ones who will whine/be vocal the most in making threads. the positive people came out n voted in polls to show what most speak of is morsel isolated. most don't care about GPS, whether working or not. its not a dealbreaker for me. and since my display, performance, and wifi is great, I'm good
his quote on get the tablet and play the lottery is funny though. n actually Acer and other tab you mentioned will not be out soon cuz no other tablet has an official release date from manufacturer. keep dreaming buddy

Is the Transformer Prime worth the buy?

Obviously it's the most "powerful" in terms of pure processing power and GPU as far as Android tablets go. But is the problems worth not buying? I will not be rooting the device as way to many problems I see on here. My question is if I leave it stock would I have some stupid issue's? I dont use bluetooth or GPS on a tablet so..
Personally, I am waiting for the t700 that is due in June. The wifi issue did it for me. All fixed in the t700 plus the hd screen will be nice.

Well, people like you tend to wait a year or 6 month's for devices.. To me waiting 3 1/2 month's because something better is coming is pointless.
I Need a tablet NOW. My question is since the Prime's hardware is obviously superior to anything on the market is it worth purchasing even so many other issues.
I said I don't use GPS or Bluetooth on a Tab bc. it seems that alongside not-so-strong WiFi are the only problems.. O and the Serial # problems, light-bleed ... Am I missing nething? I am only asking as i'm purchasing my Prime in less than an hour from Staples..
Kolja Dunhamm (CM-developer) seems to have concluded that Tegra 3, which the prime is based on, is junk. Just like Tegra 2.
There's a few much better chipsets out there already and even better ones coming soon. Unless you want something now, I'm sure you will be able to get something much more worthwhile in not too much time.
If it will have the awesome keyboard dock built into the design from day-one, however, is hard to tell or predict. If a integrated keyboard dock is more important than processing power, the prime might be worth it.
Otherwise I say wait it out. See what else is coming.

If your buying it anyway why are you asking if its worth it? If you want people on a forum to help you feel better about buying something then go ahead and buy it. You have the official blessing. But if you wanna be smart and you have to have a tablet now then get something a lot cheaper and wait for much better devices coming in the next few months for the same money.
I returned my Prime last month, and bought the 32GB original TF101. I saved $100, and everything on it works like it should. Although it doesn't have the raw processor power of the Prime, my WiFi range is about 33% better than it was on the Prime, which is more important to me anyway.

You better click that link, because it took me one hours getting it here. From the G+ app. One hour. I'm not kidding. That one link = one hour of work.
Because the Google+ Android app has no way of sharing outside the G+ app (leaving no way to draw new users), no way of sharing with the Android mechanisms.
And the mobile web-pages you are forced onto does not work if you have more than one Google account on your phone. I can't have normal webpages pages? My phone has better resolution than most laptops sold these days?
And then when you enter the laptop Google doesn't find the page your are searching for because evidently Goolge started sucking on search and can't even search its own ****ing social network.
Absolutely pathetic. Absolute garbage.
But there you have it. A link. Clickable. It should work. Even on Android, it might even lead you to the G+ app itself. Where you again will be able to share it with noone outside the world of G+.
These are amazing times we live in.

If I have to unroot everytime there's a fw upgrade, it's not worth the bother. Android OS will continue to evolve so development will have to constantly catch up. I've had enough of the Prime, my next tab will have 1900x1200 res and Jelly Beans.
Well i got mine because someone mislabled it and put a $399 sticker on it XD so ya totally worth it for me.
At the price tag of $500.... the galaxy tab was about that when it first came out. The first transformer was close to that when it first came out as well... hell up to a few months ago it was STILL $500 in most stores, granted that was bundled with the dock.
In all, for what you get its a steep price but a cutting edge tablet. Sometimes the cutting edge cuts you tho, in the case of GPS and wifi. in 6 more months there will be a dozen tablets with the tegra 3, and by christmas there will be the tegra 4 or whatever comes next. theres always something bigger down the road.
The way i look at it: If you want a tablet you are going to push to the max get the prime. If you want a good tablet that has the problems mostly worked out, get the TF101 on clearance (at least in my area) for like, $300? Really it boils down to how much are you going to use it, what are you using it for, what are you willing to pay for it, and how soon do you need it. With all electronics, it pretty much doubles every six months. Quad core tablets now, watch us have a 8 core tablet by christmas XD
TLDR: This tablet does everything i want it to do, and more. amazingly fast for games, pictures, great for watching movies (tho not wirelessly), overall im happy with it and the price i paid. YMMV.

Never heard of someone getting their warranty denied due to rooting. I know it's in Asus's rules but I have enough experience to know that rules like that aren't always strictly enforced.
So what's the problem with rooting on Prime again?

Many problems?
Definitely worth it.
)Bought the prime yesterday.
It's really hard to explain the feeling when holding this device.
Asus gave a new meaning to the word "premium".
This device is absolutely amazing in all ways. Build quality is of the best I've encountered, screen is amazingly bright.
Speed, well it's tegra 3. Mulitasking is super smooth and just a pleasure with ics.
The keyboard dock, although being small, is very well made. I can type on it perfectly. The dock can also power an external hdd.
Gaming is awesome (tegra 3, duh).
Camera is nice, although not super necessary on tablets except for the front facing. Video quality is very nice.
Dont know about battery life yet. Ive only had it for a day.
I sold my ipad (and divorced apple thank god) and got this. I waited to see what would be the new king after MWC, but it seems that the TFP kept the crown for now.
All in all IMO this is the best value you can get for your money right now.
Truly amazing tablet.
For what it is worth, I read that quick thread in google+ and really put zero weight by what that guy said.....
OMAP5 wont be on the market in users hands for a year (!) and S4 devices wont be in customers hands until Q2/Q3 this year. So Tegra 3 is really compared to Exynos and S3 and OMAP4 which it does great against......and is the best chipset for the first 4-6 months of its life....
The chipset on Tegra3 is not a disappointment to me....it does everything you need and more. If you live to benchmark your tablet then wait...otherwise Tegra3 is fine

Uhh... You don't have to unroot every time there's an update. The updates do remove root, but Voodoo OTA RootKeeper can just bring it right back if you made a su backup with it. Simple.

Also most developers will incorporate the updates in their roms so as to not break root.

Help deciding between prime or infinity

Hey all, I am looking to get a tablet and have two options for the same price. I can get the prime with keyboard dock and other accessories or an infinity. From what I've read so far they are very similar except for the screen. I'm leaning towards the prime since it has the accessories.
I'm def going to root it asap, so I wanted to get some opinions. Do any of you have the keyboard?? Is it worth it vs the infinity??
Thanks!

Keyboard is worth it as an option - we sometimes use it sometimes do not.
I have TF201 - very happy (sans GPS).
Wookie 1.4 ROM fixs all performance issues with PRIME (I have not yet installed it myself as the most recent ASUS ROM was also very very stable and fast).
What about these wifi issues I keep seeing. Some people make it sound like you can't even get a signal while others say it's fine. I don't plan on being outside of my house with the tablet so should i be concerned??
My dad bought a TF700 yesterday. I was setting it up and noted that the wifi was showing stronger signal than my 201. However, since the very latest update a few days ago I have noted significant improvement in my wifi on the 201. I ran speedtest.net and pulled the same numbers as my laptop.
The TF700 sitting next to the 201 looked IDENTICAL screen-wise wich I didn't expect considering the higher display specs of the 700. However, the 700's camera image on-screen was seriously yellow in comparison to my 201. Doing some research i found that a yellow screen on the 700 has been reported by many sources including reviews. When we transferred the picture to a PC and it didnt look as bad.
Office depot has the TF700 for $449. They have the 201 DOCK for $99 (in store only). I plugged my 201 dock in to the 700 and it worked perfectly so I suggested to my dad he get that one rather than the 700 dock and save the $50. There are many reports on here that the 201 dock is identical internally to the 700's dock including part numbers etc...
My dad was given a coupon for 20% off accessories when he bought the tablet so the dock will be $80 when he uses it.
All in all I would probably buy the 700 for the higher specs. Performance wise I did not find the 700 a stellar or really noteable improvement. The places I noticed things were more in the software side with extra options in certain places on the 700.
Thanks for that write up. I appreciate it. I spoke to the person that I'm buying it from and he said that wifi has always been strong for him. I did see that there was a new update. I'm not going to be streaming movies etc. mainly just surfing the web and downloading apps. I won't use the camera feature at all so that's not a big factor.
The screen was the big factor for me. I'm coming from an iPad 2 and both the prime and infinity have better screens so I think it's going to be an upgrade for me either way. I've read that many apps aren't optimized for the infinity's screen so not sure if that matters.
I'm kinda leaning towards the prime with the keyboard right now. I'm going to buy it through ebay so if the wifi totally sucks I can file a claim and return it.
I have to be honest though, neither looks as good as the newest displays on iPad. When not side by side you probably wouldnt realize but the clarity and sharpness of the iPad stands out.
having said that I stream netflix on my 201 regularly with no problems.
I agree thatte iPad 3 and 4 are sick and not comparable to the Prime. But since I'm coming from an iPad2 it'll be a slight improvement. Plus I thought that was a great screen anyways.
Good to hear the you can stream netflix over wifi without issues. That's the only thing concerning me at this time.
The prime is basically discontinued which means support and development for it will falter much sooner than the tf700. The screen if you compare text is infinitely better too and the WiFi suckz

I agree 100% with this post... I have a Prime since day one FINALLY there are some solid JB roms available, running energy with mine. As for the discontinued statement it is already happening to the docks. I tried purchasing off amazon the new 500/700 dock and they cancelled my order saying they had no clue when it would be available again. So I had to order the last one from Newegg and they discontinued it after my order.
So basically go with the Infinity or pick up the Nexus 10 if you dont mind having no memory upgrades.
I currently have both. JB Stock vs stock Prime is better. 700 is very laggy and frame rate suck. Nenamark2 is below 39 fps while the Prime gets about 57fps. Even if you enable Force GPU and Disable Hardware Overlay it doesnt make much difference. I had to down grade the 700 to ICS which makes it smoother (nenamark2 score of 41) but what I noticed with ICS is during download of games or app data the 700 becomes unusable just like how Prime was on ICS. JB on Prime took care of this.
Also you will find a lot of games not compatible specifically Gameloft and EA games. You will need to side load most of them but you will need to have a source like a backup from another device. If you dont really play gameloft or EA games then it doesnt matter. Glu games are all available in the market.
The only slight advantage of the 700 is the screen. Its better in particular with text. Micro sd card no longer sticks out if you even use one. From the forums the tf700 needs to be unlocked and loaded with Cleanrom and clemsey kernel to make it on par with the Prime but if score means anything, Nenamark2 on clemsey kernel is 41fps on JB. As far as wifi both seems to be on par. But Prime lacks gps if thats important to you.
EDIT: I just tested wifi again and 700 is slightly better actually by 5-8dbm. Unless you're quite far from your router then that might not matter much. Also noticed the Prime tends to jump around more.

I have a TF201 (since Dec 27th of last year). It is a low SN unit and I've never had any WiFi problems (only the GPS but that's a non-issue for me). It has worked great since new and has only gotten better with each update.
I have a friend that bought TF700's (based on what they saw with my Prime). When we are visiting we usually play the same games etc. sitting next to each other. He always comments that he thinks my Prime out performs his Infinity. There are some apps that work on my Prime and sort of works on his Infinity like multi-live wallpaper. I can assign different pictures to each of my screens without any problems but on his Infinity it doesn't work for some reason. We are both running JB. When we run Beach Buggy Blitz side by side his gets jittery when there is a lot of stuff going on but mine is smooth as silk. Not sure if this is the resolution optimization thing mentioned above.
I say go with the Prime if it's the same price as the Infinity especially if it come with the dock/accessories and the Infinity is just the tablet.

You are nobody to criticize. I just answered OPs question. Problems?
There are probably Win8 forums out there. Did the OP ask about Win8? NOPE. Since he didn't your crappy answer is not needed.

That’s cool. I'm waiting for my warranty to run out at the end of the month then it's root and unlock for me. I'm kind of scared to do it because mine has worked so well from day one though. I should be getting the dock for Christmas and I can't wait to play with that. The DEV community is great and that is why I like the Android platform so much because of cases like yours.
