Fremont, CA (October 24th, 2016) -- ASUS is excited to announce the immediate availability of the Transformer 3 Mini and Pro, two versatile 2-in-1 PCs featuring Windows 10 and powered by Intel® Core™ x5 and Core™ i7 CPUs, respectively. Each Transformer includes a slim detachable cover keyboard and an ASUS Pen stylus, making them full-featured tablets and laptops that provide the ultimate in flexibility and performance.
Transformer Mini – Compact. Convenient. Creative
The ultra-thin, feather-light, 10.1-inch ASUS Transformer Mini T102HA is two amazing devices in one! Built from magnesium-aluminum alloy, it's a less-than 1.75lb 10.1-inch ultraportable 2-in-1 with up to 11 hours of battery life, and it supports all the great new features of Windows 10! It features the Intel Core x5-8350 CPU alongside 4GB of RAM for seamless multitasking and 128GB of eMMC storage, making the Transformer 3 Mini an extremely capable and portable 2-in-1 for a busy lifestyle. It also supports up to an additional 512GB of storage via the microSD card reader so you’ll have no problem storing your everyday tasks.
The Transformer Mini is truly comfortable and intuitive to use. A brand-new ultra-slim keyboard design makes it even more compact and light. But we haven't compromised usability — the precision touchpad has palm-rejection technology and Windows gesture support, and the keyboard has 1.5mm key travel. Typing on the go has never been this comfortable, and the keyboard's anti-dust construction keeps it looking great! The ASUS Pen stylus is also included.
We wanted to make Transformer Mini always ready to use at any time, so we've given it a clever auto-scanning fingerprint sensor- Instant ID. This supports the new Windows Hello feature, so you can unlock Transformer Mini instantly with just a single touch!
Transformer 3 Pro
The ASUS Transformer 3 Pro T303UA is a no-compromise 2-in-1 featuring an all-metal premium design with a fully adjustable rear kickstand. Powered by a 6th generation Intel Core i7 6500U CPU, 16GB of 1866MHz RAM, and a 512GB SSD, the Transformer 3 Pro is capable of not only handling the toughest tasks, but also serving as a full-featured gaming machine thanks to external graphics card support via its USB 3.1 Thunderbolt Type-C port with the soon to be released ASUS XG Station II. The backlit cover keyboard is included with the Transformer 3 Pro, along with the ASUS Pen stylus, capable of sensing 1024 different levels of pressure.
The Transformer 3 Pro T303UA’s beautiful and vibrant 12.6” 3K (2880x1920) anti-glare touchscreen is a joy to use. Images look super-sharp and the deep, rich colors stay true at a variety of viewing angles. The stereo speakers were tuned by audio experts Harmon Kardon for an immersive audio experience. For added security and convenience, the Transformer 3 Pro’s front camera supports Windows 10’s Hello facial recognition login. The Transformer 3 Pro also supports the optional ASUS Universal Dock, capable of turning the USB 3.1 Thunderbolt Type-C port into a fully featured hub containing a USB 3.1 Type-C port, USB 3.0 Type-A port, full-sized HDMI port, VGA port, Ethernet port, and3-in-1 SD card reader.
