The Transformer Prime is the world’s first tablet to feature Project Kal-El, NVIDIA’s next-generation quad-core Tegra mobile processor, giving birth to a new breed of tablet devices that deliver never-before-seen levels of performance with low power consumption. The combination of incredibly high performance and low power consumption means that high-definition entertainment can be enjoyed for an extended period of time.Featuring an incredibly slim form factor, it is even thinner than its predecessor, and brandishes a metallic spun finish design for a secure, yet extremely comfortable grip. The innovative and convenient mobile dock has also been slimmed down and seamlessly provides the user with a keyboard, touchpad and limitless expandability options, not to mention added battery life.
When combined with the mobile dock, the Transformer Prime provides unlimited productivity for both work and play.
