The package includes an AC adapter, a micro-USB to USB cable, a user manual and a warranty card.
The MeMo Pad FHD 10 has a 10.1in IPS display with a resolution of 1920x1200. Although this resolution isn't as high as devices like the 4th Generation iPad and Google's Nexus 10, it still has a more than respectable pixel density of 226ppi.
The device has an attractive, etched finish on the back. This makes it both comfortable to hold and relatively easy to grip.
There's a power/lock screen button along the top of the tablet, towards the left side. It's a bit of an annoyance if you're right handed.
A micro-USB port for charging is located on the left side of the tablet.
There's also a micro-HDMI port for connecting the the MeMo Pad FHD 10 to a television, along with a microSD card slot. The device comes with 32GB of internal memory.
A volume rocker and standard 3.5mm headphone jack are located on the right side of the device. The volume rocker does feel a little loose but provides decent tacility.
The ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10 is powered by a 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z2560 processor and has 2GB RAM.
A 5-megapixel rear-facing camera doubles as a full HD, 1080p video recorder, and the tablet also comes with a front-facing 1.2-megapixel camera.
The MeMO Pad FHD 10 is available now in Australia for $399. It is sold through retailers JB HiFi, Bing Lee, Harvey Norman, Leading Edge, Radio Rentals, BSR and The Good Guys, along with a number of authorised ASUS resellers.
