Asus Padfone 2 appears in video tour

I watched the video and it appeared that the wedge shape is from the laptop, not Padfone.

Yay! the slide system is broken! I can see all the images on the page like I have computer with a monitor with a resolution over 800x600.

As far as I know, the tablets are little more than batteries and screens in this setup. Maybe some better speakers and ports.

Also, I love Asus' designs for some reason. They seem to do subtle well enough that it looks like the device I want. Samsung's designs are over the top. HTC has a sort of 'me too' look about them that works well but just feels a little too... Windows 98. By this I mean Mr. Jobs' assertion that Microsoft has no culture years ago. The Nexus designs always feel a bit boring to me with the Nexus S being the last desirable looking one and that only being a result of minimalism. The Lumias look like I'd think the design was great all the way into my second week owning it when I'll wish I'd just gotten a black one. The physical design is great, but those colors are too bright for an everyday device (Very strictly IMO). Asus seems to nail that mark in between looking too much like a toy and looking like a grown adults tool for life. Maybe I'm a little biased.

Well, this turned out not to be so much a reply to Hammerfest (which sounds like a much more focused oktoberfest) but my thoughts on mobile design.

Looking at the video again. The tablet looks so minimal. Man, I hope it doesn't sit weird on a table with that phone bulging out in the middle.

You are wrong..
S4 pro cannot be clocked to 2.0ghz and its APQ8064 instead of MPQ8064..
400ppi is actually useless as our eyes can hardly diffentate between 300ppi and 330ppi..
(Yes..you are asking tooo much)

How would the density been much higher if it was S-LCD? I think S-Amoled is very nice on my GS2, even with only 206 ppi, I like the saturation and contrast (even though it hurts my eyes sometimes). I generally enjoy S-LCD more, but Amoled is still very nice.

amoled displays are amazing..
They may not be as realistic and lcds are concerned but it is really attractive.
I like it on gneXs and gs2..!

You can't really compare 267 ppi to 300+ ppi... Wait until the Note 2's display gets scaled down so it has about 310 ppi, then it will be great.

Which country are from?
Me to definitely not buy the LG neXus just because of its branding.
In my country LG is considered a very bad company only meant for refrigerators and microwaves(lol!!)
Looking forward for the Xperia nexus!

lets wait and see..
I prefer sony because it has heavily contributed to AOSP..
xda support and open source hardware is very important for me..
HTC is the best in its build quality!
Moto fail..with their locked bootloaders.
