Coming back to the Asus, What makes it a really good tablet.... It has a really good screen too, I feel it's more than enough for a display of this size.

Screen is still gorgeous and output to any big monitor through HDMI is outstanding...I use it for astronomy lectures.

It's not a super high resolution display, so the individual pixels are pretty good sized, and this was pretty noticeable.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by Andrew-Vosper (Sep, 2012)
Sure, it's not a "retina" display but it's great for video and good enough for reading.

The front camera has less pixels and isn't as great, but is perfect for video calls and gets the job done.

The specs of the machine are the best around right now, the quad core is bullet fast.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by Slim (May, 2012)
I have used Ipads and frankly the addition of the keyboard, quad core and ease of memory expansion puts the ASUS ahead.

3D games ran fast and smooth on this tablet.

Being mainly an iOS user I was very skeptical going into Android (with all the bugs, lag and other stuff I've heard about), but this tab doesn't have any issues at all!

Screen

projectors/monitors. The screen format is wide screen so a better match to modern TVs and monitors than the Apple 4x5 format.

Android 4.0 has embraced clean, industrial design, and it has wonderful touches here and there that shows how much Google cares about a good experience.

Operating system

I used it extensively as it is a great tablet PC with fantastic functionality, speed, software, etc..
Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300 32 GB | Rated 20% by by NMF96 (Oct, 2012)
I think part of this has to do with the color palette of iOS being more white/gray, while Android is more black/dark gray.
Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300 32 GB | Rated 40% by by J.-Krafcik (Apr, 2012)
The splashtop software is also very nice for those running Windows, it will forward your Windows desktop to the tablet and on a local network it is very usable.

Battery

My battery can be charging or fully charged and the unit would give me the most random battery status.
