ASUS Announces MeMO Pad 7 with New Hot Pink Color Option

ASUS today announced a new Hot Pink color option for MeMO Pad 7 (ME572C/CL). MeMO Pad 7 is a 7-inch Android™ 4.4 (KitKat) tablet featuring a Full HD IPS display, up to 1.83GHz 64-bit quad-core Intel® Atom™ Z3560 processor and optional 4G LTE connectivity in a thin, lightweight and stylish design. Inspired by clutch bags and wallets, MeMO Pad 7 has a unique, elegant look that, combined with its powerful functionality, makes it the perfect everyday companion and fashion essential.

Since its introduction in September 2014, MeMO Pad 7 has received enthusiastic reviews from journalists and users alike. MeMO Pad 7 also won a 2014 Good Design Award in recognition of excellence in design and engineering. The Good Design Awards, organized by the Japan Institute of Design Promotion (JDP) is one of the four major design awards recognized by the International Design Alliance. In response to the accolades, ASUS is now releasing a new Hot Pink model in addition to the currently available Rose Champagne, Burgundy Red, and Gentle Black color options. The new Hot Pink model has the rich sheen and subtly textured finish of burnished leather, with an elegant yet playful look that is equally suited to everyday use and elegant nights out.

Incredible entertainment

The centerpiece of MeMO Pad 7 is its 7-inch, Full HD (1920 x 1200 resolution) IPS display. With an ultra-high pixel density of 323 pixels per inch (ppi), MeMO Pad 7's display packs over 2.3 million pixels for razor-sharp graphics and text. IPS technology delivers a wide 178-degree viewing angle and accurate color reproduction, while ASUS TruVivid technology improves color clarity and brightness. Combined, these technologies ensure a fantastic picture for immersive entertainment experiences and general daily use.

While movies, photos, and music look and sound great on MeMO Pad 7, it also serves as a portable entertainment hub that makes it easy to enjoy multimedia content on other devices. Miracast support allows users to stream movies and photos wirelessly to a large screen TV or external display, ideal for sharing with friends and family. MeMO Pad 7 also supports CSR aptX, which lets users stream CD-quality audio wirelessly over Bluetooth to supported headphones and other devices.

MeMO Pad 7 has a 5MP rear-facing, autofocus camera and a 2MP front-facing camera to cover a wide range of picture-worthy moments, from everyday snapshots and selfies to creative photography sessions. MeMO Pad 7 features PixelMaster, an exclusive ASUS camera technology comprising a set of features including Time Rewind Mode and Selfie Mode that improve camera performance and make it easier for users to capture great photos and videos.

Fast, efficient performance

MeMO Pad 7 is powered by a 64-bit quad-core Intel Atom Z3560 processor that delivers powerful, energy-efficient performance for smooth web browsing, responsiveness when running high-performance applications, and long battery life.

MeMO Pad 7 is available in Wi-Fi-only and LTE/Wi-Fi versions. The LTE/Wi-Fi version features an Intel XMM™ 7160 LTE modem that provides ultra-fast connectivity for high-speed web browsing, streaming video, and music. It is optimized for low power consumption for improved battery life in active and standby modes.
