ASUS Memo Pad 7 LTE Review + Tablet Giveaway!!

*I work with ASUS on promotions. All opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.*

Asus Tablet 7 LTEI recently had the opportunity to review the ASUS Memo Pad 7, and I was pleasantly pleased with the experience. It’s an economy tablet, but since it’s from ASUS, I knew it would be great. I have to say, when I fired it up and played with it for a bit, I was quite pleased with the power and functionality of this tablet.unnamed-9

ASUS Memo Pad 7 – A Beefy Tablet at a Poultry Price

As I said, the ASUS Memo Pad 7 is an economy tablet, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Personally, I’ve never seen the benefit of buying a $500.00 tablet that’s as powerful as my computer. I’m not playing a game like Call of Duty or the like on it, and I’m not running Photoshop. It’s a tablet. I use it for social media, game and productivity apps, and music. I don’t need an uber machine. I just need something that’s powerful and reliable. That’s what I got with the ASUS Memo Pad 7.

Don’t let the term economy tablet fool you. The ASUS Memo Pad 7 is a workhorse. Everyone in our family was able to run all of our favorite apps as well as some new ones that our old tablet didn’t support. It’s processing speed is more than adequate, it’s storage space is more than sufficient, and it supported every app that we wanted to use. It’s an economy tablet that delivers a luxury experience.unnamed-8

Of course the kids were all about the games. I had barely had a chance to look it over before the kids snatched it up and installed several different apps on it. It downloaded and installed them quickly and easily with no hiccups and no annoying “your device in unsupported” messages.

After a couple of hours, I took it back to do some actual work on the tablet and I was thoroughly impressed. I had no problem installing a few of my favorite productivity apps and the like. I even took a few pictures to test out the camera quality and the pictures turned out wonderfully. The ASUS Memo Pad 7 delivered on all fronts for us, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

ASUS Memo Pad 7 Specsunnamed-7

The ASUS Memo Pad 7 packs quite a punch at a very low price, which I think is pretty cool. I’m not surprised really, ASUS  is big time. They are known for the quality of their motherboards and other products, so I was certain the tablet wouldn’t disappoint. And it didn’t. Here’s a run down of the specs.

  • 1GB RAM
  • 8GB or 16 GB memory
  • Micro SD card slot supports 64GB cards
  • WLAN802.11 b/g/n WiFi connectivity
  • Bluetooth v4.0
  • Supports Miracast
  • 2 MP front camera
  • 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording
  • Stereo speakers
  • Micro USB
  • 2-in-1 audio jack
  • G-sensor
  • E-compass
  • Hall sensor
  • 9 hour battery life

As you can see, the term “economy tablet” only pertains to the price of the ASUS Memo Pad 7. Make no mistake, this tablet is a powerhouse. Does it have the most of everything? Nope. Does it have to? Nope. I’m about form, function, and performance, not a trendy name and a high price. The ASUS Memo Pad 7 gave my family everything we wanted and nothing we didn’t. I truly love this tablet!

If you’re looking for a great tablet at an even greater price, the ASUS Memo Pad 7 is the tablet for you. And you can win one!

    I love the 9 hour battery life! My current tablet (which is nothing fancy!) has a pared-down battery charge of about 4 hours. What’s more frustrating than running out of juice right in the middle of a project?

  16. ellen beck says

    I like how long the battery lasts, thats amazing! Nine hours is so long considering how small this device is!

  22. Jennifer Williams says

    I love the dual camera features. It’s great to be able to both Skype and take great pics/video from a distance!

  24. D Schmidt says

    My favorite feature is the 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording

  32. Bridgett Wilbur says

    My favorite part is that it supports miracsat and has and e-compass and front and back cameras.

  37. Delirah M says

    Long lasting battery! We’re traveling to FL next month (almost 6 hours of flight time) and a long battery life is essential when traveling with kids! 🙂

  40. Ann Fantom says

    I like the ASUS Memo Pad 7’s 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording

  48. Dawn Monzu says

    I love that it take quality photos! I hate when tablets take such terrible photos. That would be great!!!

  49. Heather D says

    Call me crazy, but I love that it has a 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording. I can’t tell you how many times I want a good camera capable of video capture for those ‘unexpected’ moments.

  50. nicole dziedzic says

    My favorite feature is the Stereo speakers, perfect for watching movies, videos, and listening to music on it.

  57. Judy Schechter says

    My favorite features are the 9 hour battery life and the fact that it has a Micro SD card slot which supports 64GB cards! Thanks for the chance to win this amazing prize!

  68. Kay says

    I love the SD card capability. This alone makes it more useful than those fixed memory tablets that cost hundreds of dollars more.

  71. Kim Keithline says

    My favorite feature of the tablet is the screen size not too big and not too small, it is a nice size to carry around

  74. Melissa C. says

    I love the size and the long battery life. The SD card feature is pretty awesome as well!

  82. Marie says

    I like the long battery life. I feel like tablets batteries never last long, but this one seems like it would be great

  92. Anita Duvall says

    I like that it has front and rear cameras, but I really like that it has a nine hour battery life.

  98. Amanda Kinder says

    I love that it has a 9 hour battery life. My current [generic] tablet has WAY less than that.

  110. Mildred says

    I like that this tablet has a Micro SD card slot, so I can use the Micro SD cards that we already own in it

  111. Susan D says

    Here’s another vote for the long estimated battery life of 9 hours, which would be good for someone who has a really busy daily schedule

  113. Crystal F says

    I would definitely be the battery life. It seems like tablets and phones die so fast. Thank you!

  114. Kelly Nicholson says

    Tell me what your favorite feature is

    long battery life..i dont own one,ive never owned one,,help me out

  116. christine burd says

    I don’t have a smart phone but I think I would like the camera and wi fi connection capability

  118. Debra S says

    Me, I love the nine hour battery life! when you are out and about, it stinks to have to recharge!

  120. Stephanie Reed says

    That’s a lot of battery! I don’t have a smartphone because as yet they aren’t compatible with my hearing aids. I haven’t been able to use shopping and other apps as a result. I’d love to try out all the features!

  128. Angelica says

    I like the long battery life. Definitely enough time for entertainment on a long road trip or flight!

  142. KATHRYN TEEL says

    My favorite feature is the battery lasting 9 hours how could you not love that!

  148. lissa crane says

    My favorite feature is that it has a 9 hour battery life! There are lots of great features, but this is the most important to me, since I travel on the train often and there is no place to recharge my devices, so I often run out of battery. This would never happen with a 9 hour battery life, that’s plenty time!

  156. Christy Nelms Caldwell says

    I love that it has a front and rear facing camera. My old tablet has no camera at all! Thanks for this chance.

  164. William Kwok says

    Battery life lasting almost all day for 9 hours is decent. I also like android!

  167. Kelly says

    I like the long 9+ hour battery life. I think my current tablet makes it about 3 hours (on a good day). This would be really nice.

  187. Theresa Smith says

    I like that it is lightweight. I just returned a tablet today that was just too heavy and felt awkward to handle.

  192. Jennifer Nielsen says

    I like that the tablet has a front and back tablet. Right now I have a Kindle Fire HD and I really want a tablet that has a rear camera too.

  193. Khoa N. says

    I love the battery life on this thing because you don’t really have to constantly trying to find the wall plug to keep it running.

  195. Ashley L says

    The long battery life! That’s one less worry when I’m outside without a charger. Thanks for the giveaway!

  196. Deb C says

    My favorite is that it has the micro USB connection. I miss having that on most small devices.

  198. Dave A. Y. says

    What’s not to love about the Asus Memo Pad 7 ? But the 1080 recording is a plus +. I love recording and would appreciate the clear video. Thank you for this opportunity! This is a great giveaway!

  199. greentopiaries says

    My favorite feature is the Intel Atom Z3530 Quad-Core processor. I’ve had so many tablets that just can’t handle what I need them to, but this one is so powerful! Thanks for the chance!

  201. Dorrie Turner says

    My favorite feature is the stereo speakers, with excellent sound all the time you will be happy!

  215. Carolyn Daley says

    My favorite feature is the 9 hour battery life because if we are out for the day or traveling somewhere we don’t have to worry about it dying for quite awhile if we do not have an option to charge it.

  216. Barbara Adams says

    I have an Asus laptop that I love, I’m sure I would enjoy the same quality performance in a smaller package, and with front and rear cameras!!!

  224. Jennifer Rote says

    I like the 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording.

  227. Chris Martinez says

    Nine hours of battery? That’s amazing. I can’t wait to test out that feature!

  229. wen budro says

    My favorite features are the long battery life and the stereo speakers. This looks like an awesome pad.

  230. Klydra Pugh says

    The 9 hour battery life is my favorite feature.
    Thanks for the chance.

  231. Sheila H says

    wifi and long battery life would let me watch my favorite movies on netflix while working out

  236. Trish says

    I love this feature: 5 MP rear camera with auto focus and 1080p video recording.

  238. Vikki Billings says

    I love the camera and the long battery life, this would be perfect for me to take pictures of my grandchildren’s birthday parties!

  242. Melanie Comello says

    My favorite feature is the Micro SD card slot. There’s nothing worse than having a cellphone or a tablet that you can’t download stuff/apps onto, because you can’t add memory.
