Why don' you see, it's stupid. The brilliant idea of padfone is burried by stupid implementation.
What was the idea? Two devices in one - large and small screen on your demand. Plus modern powerfull guts of course. What do we get with the PadFone 2 and PadFone Infinity. Large screen is large, guts are ok, but why the heck small screen is so enormous!? Why would I need such combination? If I buy this combo I would have separate very lagre and in other ways nice screen for the situations in which large screen is needed so there is no need for the small device to be so clumsily big. 4" or 3.7" if not less would be perfectly OK.

The tablet mode does not seems to use a tablet UI for android.. Why is the software button on the middle instead of the left side? And the time and battery indicator should be bottom right?

If that is true when release.. its going to be abit difficult to use it as a tablet.. As your hands constantly have to be on the bottom pressing the software button..

why such a thick bazel on the fonepad? looks retarded! the padfone is off the hook though! the only downside is no sd card! fm transmitter and xenon flash would have been nice!

I think right now it's a tie between LG OG Pro, HTC One and PadFone as best of Android!

If I could choose though I'd take the PadFone and G Pro coming at close second! I like how Asus doesn't tinkle much with stock Android.

Must be the padfone 3, Not really any major changes. You thought the padfone 2 was much this is going to be even more.
