#asus zenpad 8

The new ZenPad S 8.0 family introduces a new breed of premium Android tablets that inherited a lot of the ZenFone design philosophy. While we already reviewed the low-end variant of the ZenPad S 8.0 before (which we bought from the US), official units arrived this month with the 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. Along with the box of the ZenPad S, there's also another thinner box that includes the Zen Clutch which is case cover for the ZenPad, and doubles as a multi-angular stand for the tablet. The ZenPad S 8.0 is one of the 3 sub-families of the ZenPad line (along with the ZenPad C and ZenPad S 7.0) which incorporates top hardware configuration in a premium build. The biggest claim to fame of the ZenPad S 8.0 is having the world’s first 4GB of RAM, following the same strategy as the ZenFone 2. At 6.6mm, the ZenPad S 8.0 is among the thinnest tablets around. However, Asus drove it up a notch when it created a two-layer back panel that is crafted from brushed aluminum complemented with faux-leather finish. For the low-end variant of the ZenPad S 8.0, they used the traditional micro-USB port but the higher-end variants already have the USB Type-C port.
