Have you ever wanted a tablet that you can customize according to your needs and wants? Like say if you wanted your tablet to have a bigger battery or better speakers or even a differently coloured backplate? Building upon the base model tablet of the ASUS ZenPad C 7.0, the ASUS ZenPad 7.0 Z370CG is one of the few tablets around that can offer interchangeable backplates with a multitude of differently coloured and multifunctional backplates that you can swap out as you want. How well does it deliver all that? Read on and find out with our full review of the ASUS ZenPad 7.0 Z370CG.

The ASUS ZenPad 7.0 Z370CG is probably one of the world's first tablets to have interchangeable backplates which ASUS are calling Zen Cases. As per our previous unboxing video, it was revealed that ASUS Malaysia are including an extra Zen Case for free. We went on to do some hands-on with the ASUS ZenPad 7.0 Z370CG with its improved tech specs including an 8MP Pixelmaster rear camera, dts-HD audio technology and the 64-bit Intel Atom x3 processor formerly known as SoFIA. Check out our hands-on video for a closer look at the ASUS ZenPad 7.0 Z370CG ahead of its release in Malaysia next week on 26 August 2015.

Recently, ASUS and Intel Malaysia held a sneak peek preview of the upcoming ASUS ZenPad tablets, which TechNave.com was privileged to attend. While the ASUS ZenPad C was also available the star of the show was undoubtedly the ASUS ZenPad 7.0 (Z370CG). Featuring tech specs that include the 64-bit quad-core Intel Atom x3 C3230 processor, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, a 7-inch display with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution and 8MP PixelMaster rear camera with autofocus, the main feature for the tablet is that it is the first one that you can customize. While it comes with a luxury-themed leather-textured plastic backplate called a Zen Case, this can be replaced with several other Zen Cases which include black, silver, orange and pastel blue (as added value, the ZenPad 7.0 will come with an extra free Zen Case). While we still don't have any pricing details yet, it has been revealed that the ZenPad 7.0 will be getting a lot of other accessories. This includes a fashionable leather clutch case called the Zen Clutch, the Power Case which adds on an extra 2000 mAh battery for a total 16 hours worth of battery life and the Audio Cover which features 5.1 channel surround sound, 6 built-in speakers and 1 sub woofer which combined with the dts-HD sound technology in the tablet makes for an instant boombox tablet.
