Look like ASUS MeMO Pad FHD 10 isn’t alone today as the Taiwanese company also announced the successor to the original budget-friendly MeMO Pad (read our review here) – the new MeMO Pad HD 7.
MeMO Pad HD 7 features a 7-inch HD IPS display with 1280 x 800 resolution and 170 degree wide viewing angles. The tablet is powered by an ARM Cortex A7 quad-core processor with 1GB of memory and storage option of 8GB or 16GB.
