Asus launching PadFone Infinity on Sept 17

The PadFone is a unique combination of a smartphone and tablet like functionality.

Asus had unveiled the PadFone Infinity during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona earlier this year. Following that Asus has now sent out invites to the media organisations in Taipei for an event on 17th September where it might launch the device, Engadget has reported. The PadFone Infinity is the upgraded version of the existing PadFone and aims to provide benefits of both smartphone and tablet in one single device.

The Asus Padfone Infinity, like the older Padfone, has two parts – a smartphone and a tablet dock. Users can place the smartphone inside the tablet dock and extend the functionality of the device or can sue the smartphone separately. The tablet dock however does not have any processing power of its own and thus is of no use without the smartphone.
