    Rumours: More 64-bit ASUS MeMo Pad 8 testing appears

    The ASUS MeMo Pad 8 ME181C remains the world's first 64-bit Android tablet and we've been getting quite a few leaks recently as to the performance and tech specs for this tablet. Truth be told we were quite curious how the real life performance of the tablet really is and our Anonymous tipster obliged with some screenshots of Asphalt 8: Airborne and a description of his or her experience with it. According to this tipster, the performance doesn't match with the performance on the benchmarks as the game lags and stutters trying to run. This doesn't match with the performance of tablet having an AnTuTu score of 32000+ so we concluded that the firmware for the tablet still hasn't been optimized completely yet. We have noticed similar performance when trying out the engineering sample for the ASUS ZenFone 5 where the real-life performance does not match with the benchmark performance. There are also camera samples as well which show similar problems as well that you can check out for yourself below:

  • Rumours: 64-bit Intel powered ASUS MeMo Pad 8 ME181C benchmarked?

    Rumours: 64-bit Intel powered ASUS MeMo Pad 8 ME181C benchmarked?

    Our anonymous tipster strikes again with some really interesting screencaps of benchmarks for the 64-bit Intel processor powered ASUS MeMo Pad 8 ME181C tablet. Introduced earlier at Computex 2014, the tablet marks the first 64-bit processor in a device and from the tech specs listed also utilizes Intel HD Graphics for Bay Trail rather than the usual Mali or PowerVR graphics chip. The benchmarks include CPU Z, AnTuTu, 3DMark and Epic Citadel with some really high-end scores. This includes an AnTuTu score of 32485, placing it in the range of current flagship smartphones (and much higher than current tablets). It appears that the tablet is running a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution display but still manages impressive performance in 3DMark and Epic Citadel. No details yet on Malaysia release dates or pricing but we expect the tablet to come here in or after August 2014. Check out the benchmarks for yourself in this article.

  • Rumours: ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME181C) hands-on pics leaked?

    Rumours: ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME181C) hands-on pics leaked?

    We recently received some admittedly blurry pictures of the ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME181C) next to the ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME180A) from an anonymous tipster. Well, said tipster has provided again, this time with some clearer hands-on like pictures. From the pictures it is clear to see that the new ASUS MeMo Pad 8 is thinner than before with and overall flatter backside thanks to no rear camera hump. The chrome trim is a nice effect and we hope the white coloured MeMo Pad 8 makes it to Malaysia soon. Still no Malaysia release dates or pricing, so stay tuned for more developments.

  • Rumours: new ASUS MeMo Pad 8 pictured with old MeMo Pad 8?

    Rumours: new ASUS MeMo Pad 8 pictured with old MeMo Pad 8?

    The 64-bit Intel processor powered ASUS MeMo Pad 8 tablets recently announced over at Computex 2014 has made an appearance. Coming courtesy of an anonymous tipster, we show pics of the new ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME181C) next to the old ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME180A). Note the slightly slimmer bezels, thinner profile and overall sleeker and more compact look. While  there aren't any pics of the backside, pics during Computex 2014 revealed that the rear camera would be on the upper corner and not have a hump like the current tablet. The tipster goes on to say that while the old ASUS MeMo Pad 8 (ME180A) feels rubberized, the new ASUS MeMo Pad 8 has a ceramic feel to it. No Malaysia release dates or pricing just yet but we expect it to come in or after August 2014. Check out the pics in the article for yourself.
