Short Review

  • The Asus Fonepad 7 features a compact design with dimensions of 196.8 x 120 x 10.5 mm and weighs 328g, making it portable but slightly bulky.
  • Its 7.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 216 ppi, suitable for basic tasks but lacking HDR support.
  • Powered by an Intel Atom Z2560 chipset with a dual-core 1.6 GHz CPU and 1GB of RAM, the performance is adequate for everyday use but may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus and can record video at 1080p, while the front-facing camera is 1.2 MP, sufficient for basic selfies.
  • The 3950 mAh battery provides moderate longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, it can be upgraded to 4.4.2 KitKat, offering a dated software experience.
  • Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device is available in Sapphire Black and Diamond White colors, though it lacks water resistance.
  • Overall, the Fonepad 7 is a basic tablet-phone hybrid with limited features and performance.
