Design and Build
The PadFone mini 4G is a dual-component device, comprising a smartphone that docks into a tablet station. The phone itself measures 132 x 66.7 x 6.3 - 12.5 mm and weighs 150 grams, making it a reasonably compact device for its time. The design incorporates a mini-SIM slot and provides a solid build with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for screen protection. While the phone is sleek, the docking apparatus, with a 7-inch display, is on the bulkier side, weighing in at 299 grams and measuring significantly larger. This two-part system can be cumbersome but offers the unique ability to switch from a smartphone to tablet functionality on the go.
