This one's built around a docking concept rather than raw specs. The phone itself runs a quad-core Snapdragon MSM8226 at 1.4 GHz paired with just 1 GB RAM, and packs 16 GB storage that expands to 64 GB via microSD. Its 4.3-inch Super IPS LCD screen is compact by today's standards, running at 540 x 960 pixels. Android 4.3 Jelly Bean handles the software side.

What sets it apart is the PadFone Station, a separate 7-inch shell with its own 2200 mAh battery that the phone slots into, turning it into a tablet on demand. The phone alone carries a 1500 mAh battery, modest given the dual-form-factor ambitions. Camera-wise, you get an 8 MP rear shooter with autofocus and LED flash, plus a 2 MP front camera for basic selfies and video calls.

Asus PadFone mini price in Malaysia starts from RM579. It comes in Titanium Black, Platinum White, and Soft Pink, with dual SIM support and microUSB charging rounding out the basics.
