When Android meets Tegra
View larger Designed specifically with tablets in mind, the Android Honeycomb 3.0 operating system provides you with optimized features and functions such as multi-touch and a holographic interface that allows you to access widgets and shortcuts with ease. Get refined multitasking, rich notifications, Home screen customization, widgets, and more. And experience the web with Adobe® Flash® 10.2 for added convenience.

Other Android Features:

  • Customizable Home screens
    Five customizable Home screens give users instant access to all parts of the system from any context. Each screen offers a large grid that maintains spatial arrangement in all orientations. Users can select and manipulate Home screen widgets, app shortcuts, and wallpapers using a dedicated visual layout mode. Visual cues and drop shadows improve visibility when adjusting the layout of shortcuts and widgets. Each Home screen also offers a familiar launcher for access to all installed applications, as well as a Search box for universal search of apps, contacts, media files, web content, and more.
  • Recent Apps, for easy visual multitasking
    Multitasking is central to the Android 3.0 experience. As users launch applications to handle various tasks, they can use the Recent Apps list in the System Bar to see the tasks underway and quickly jump from one application context to another. To help users rapidly identify the task associated with each app, the list shows a snapshot of its actual state when the user last viewed it.
  • Redesigned keyboard
    The Android soft keyboard is redesigned to make entering text fast and accurate on larger screen sizes. The keys are reshaped and repositioned for improved targeting, and new keys have been added, such as a Tab key, to provide richer and more efficient text input. Users can touch-hold keys to access menus of special characters and switch text/voice input modes from a button in the System Bar.
  • Improved text selection, copy and paste
    When entering or viewing text, a new user interface lets users quickly select a word by press-hold and then adjust the selection area as needed by dragging a set of bounding arrows to new positions. Users can then select an action from the Action Bar, such as copy to the clipboard, share, paste, web search, or find.

NVIDIA® Tegra™ 2, world's first mobile super chip, brings the fastest, most visually-rich tablet experience ever seen. The Eee Pad Transformer takes full advantage of this mobile dual-core processor, providing extreme multitasking capability with the best web experience – up to two times faster browsing, hardware accelerated Flash, and NVIDIA® GeForce® gaming.

Great all around tablet.

I received my tablet in good order and could not be happier with it. You get a really excellent tablet for the price. The tablet came with Android 3.2 and just updated to 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) on Feb 28, 2011. With all the apps available in the Market, I have never been at a loss to find something to interest me. The large screen is bright and vivid, however there is some light leakage around the top and bottom edges. Most of the time this is not a problem but can become annoying after dark. Performance-wise, the TF101 is awesome. The Nvidia Tegra processor gives it the horsepower it needs to power through the most demanding 3D games in the market. If you want a real tablet to get real work (or play) done, you could certainly do worse than the Transformer TF101.

Good value and nice dispay

Good processor and nice features only wish it had the upgraded processor and then I'd never have to have my laptop around. Fun practical and great for the 50+ year old eyes. I use it at my Senior Assisted place of employment for fruit Ninjas and puzzles and great photo sharing. They are all amazed! A little more buffering for movies than I like, but overall a great experience.

Loving this tablet!

So I wanted to wait until I got some decent use out of this tablet before writing a review. A couple days ago I got an OTA upgrade to ICS and this tablet has been even better since. My only other experience with tablets is a Velocity Micro Cruz and that thing seems like a dinosaur compared to the Transformer. Everything is fast and very responsive. I've been using mine to surf the web, watch HD video I download to my pc and transfer over, reading books and keeping logs of business related information I need to do my job. Overall this has been a great tool. I did, however, only give it 5 stars for value because I got it on sale for $329.00. At the current price I would have to change that to 4 stars but it is still a definite recommend for someone looking for a great tab!
