ASUS today announced the new ASUS Fonepad 8 (FE380CG), an 8-inch tablet with dual-SIM. Fonepad 8 comes equipped with a 64-bit quad-core Intel Atom processor Z3530 1.33GHz that delivers powerful performance to run the latest apps and games. Built-in 3G connectivity and dual SIM slots provide crystal-clear voice calls and ensure that users are reachable on their own mobile or travel SIM numbers.
Fonepad 8 features an all-new design that is lighter and narrower than its predecessor, yet offers a larger viewing area thanks to a class-leading ultra-narrow bezel.
ASUS Fonepad 8 comes with Android 4.4 (KitKat) and features ASUS ZenUI, the all-new mobile user interface exclusive to ASUS devices. Featuring a new visual design made to be efficient and inviting, it contains modern ‘flat’ icons, vivid device-matching color themes, animations, new ringtones and notification sounds, and a clean layout to present information clearly.
Fonepad 8 features an 8-inch, 1280 x 800 IPS display and dual front speakers tuned with MaxxAudio for immersive multimedia experiences. Its twin 5-megapixel rear and 2-megapixel front-facing cameras with PixelMaster technology provide enhanced camera functions that make it easy to capture high-quality images and video. Fonepad 8 is available with 16GB of onboard storage, which can be further expanded with up to 64GB of Micro SD Card storage.
The highly energy-efficient design of Fonepad 8 comes equipped with 4000 mAh battery provides up to 12 hours of life when watching videos or browsing the web, or up to 21 hours of 3G talk time.
ASUS Fonepad 8 (FE380CG) will be available in Black and Gold colours from today in India at ASUS Exclusive stores and Flipkart for Rs. 13,999.
