Asus has been teasing us with its innovative Padfone device since last year. Asus Padfone is really a cool concept that docks a smartphone into a tablet and then the tablet turns into a notebook with the help of a keyboard dock. The manufacturer has showed us the final design and final specs of the Asus Padfone at this year’s MWC event. Asus released an official video demo for the Padfone on YouTube, praising its display, processor, battery life and Stylus/headset accessory.
If you need a specs refresher, here’s the list of the key features of the Asus Padfone:
# Ships with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich OS
# Packs a a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor ticking at 1.5GHz
# Smartphone features a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display with qHD (540X960) resolution, 1,520mAh battery

# An awesome headset-stylus accessory to answer the calls when the phone is inside the tablet
# A total of 14,000mAh battery power that could last for 102 hours in laptop mode
Recent reports revealed that the battery lasted for 14.1 hours browsing non-stop running on 3G laptop mode. We guess that 102 hours claim is related to 2G talk time mode.
