If you would look at the trends on mobile technology, you’d observe massive changes in screen size. Back in 2007, 3.5 inches was already enough; it was big. The likes of the HTC HD2 was even considered to be very exotic and enormous at 4.3 inches.

Asus is the first to combine a smartphone, a tablet and a keyboard with the PadFone. Read on to know more in our [...]
