New ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime ‘TF300T’ Tablet Spotted in the Wild

ASUS may have plans to expand its Transformer Prime range, if the latest leak is to be believed.

The image above shows a new, as yet unannounced tablet from ASUS, which has appeared online with the model number ‘TF300T’. The TF series indicates it’s a Transformer tablet, which means this beauty is going to come with a netbook-sized dockable keyboard.

The first Transformer Tab had the model TF101, the Transformer Prime has the model TF201, though the improved Prime which is due this June has a higher model of TF700T – this leads us to believe this tab could be a middle-ground Transformer Prime model.

Unfortunately the only thing we have to go on for this new tablet is an image; no specifications were provided alongside it. From the design alone this device looks promising; with a stunning crimson-coloured rear panel that features a similar ring spun effect to that of the Transformer Prime TF201. Obviously we can’t tell for certain from a picture, but to us this tab looks to be sporting a plastic rear panel. This is key, as the aluminium rear panel on the Transformer Prime has been blamed for blocking out wireless signals, resulting in less than stellar Wi-Fi and GPS quality.

Size-wise this tablet looks to keep the same form factor as its TF201 brethren, so the screen size is likely to be 10.1-inches. Whether it will sport the same fantastic Super IPS panel remains to be seen, though if this tab is aimed at the more price-conscious consumer we expect the screen quality of a slightly lower standard.

We’ll be keeping our eyes on this one, so stay tuned for more on the TF300T.
