Asus MeMo 172V Makes Post-CES Debut

Asus MeMo 172V Makes Post-CES Debut

Chad Buenaflor 13 Jan

Asus has announced that they will be releasing a new tablet in the U.S. market called the Asus MeMo 172V which will be priced at $149. This 7 inch device will be running on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and will have full access to Google Play.

Asus MeMo 172V Technical Specifications

  • Operating System: Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
  • Display: 7 inches LED , 1024×600 170ppi, 10 point multi touch, 350 nits
  • Processor: Via WM8950 1 GHz
  • GPU: Mali 400
  • RAM: 1 GB
  • Storage: 8/16 GB expandable to 32 GB via microSD
  • Camera: 1 MP 720p HD at 30 fps front
  • Wireless: 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi
  • Battery: 7 hours (4270mAh)

This model will compete directly with the slew of other low cost tablets scheduled for release this year from manufactures such as Polaroid and Alcatel.

In terms of design this is a cousin to the popular Nexus 7. It comes with the same textured back that a lot of people like since it provides a better grip when holding it.

Don’t expect this model to be a powerhouse as its specs are quite underwhelming. Asus said that “Our focus for this device is on delivering excellent performance per watt and a smooth and fluid user experience at an extremely affordable price, NOT on winning benchmarks”. If you are looking for a sub $150 gaming machine then this one isn’t it.

This model will be available directly from Asus and its retail partners in selected regions this month. Will also be making its way to the U.S. this April and will come with support for Hulu Plus, Netflix, HBO Go and more. There will be three colors to choose from which are pink, gray, and white.
