A quad-core 1.5GHz Krait chipset with Adreno 320 graphics handles day-to-day tasks here, backed by 2GB RAM and storage options up to 64GB with no card slot for expansion. The 4.7-inch Super IPS+ LCD panel runs at 720 x 1280 with a pixel density of around 312 ppi, sharp enough for everyday use on Android 4.0, which can be upgraded to Jelly Bean 4.1.1.

The rear camera sits at 13MP with autofocus and LED flash, capable of 1080p video at 30fps. Asus Padfone 2 A68 price in Malaysia starts from RM2099. Battery capacity is a modest 2140 mAh, but the phone's real trick is the optional Padfone Station dock, which turns it into a 10.1-inch tablet with its own 5000 mAh battery for extended use away from a charger.

Connectivity covers Wi-Fi, NFC, GPS and LTE up to 100 Mbps, so it's reasonably current for its time despite the aging OS base. It comes in Black or White.
