The ZenPad Z8 uses ASUS VisualMaster technology to enhance and optimize contrast, sharpness, and motion clarity depending on the situation. Dual-front facing stereo speakers and DTS-HD support deliver premium audio for groups just as well as for a single person. A USB Type-C port means that there is no wrong direction to connect the cable and a micro SD slot ensures expanding the device by up to 128GB is fast and easy (card sold separately).
Enabled by the speedy and efficient Snapdragon 650 hexa-core 64-bit processor, the thin and lightweight ASUS ZenPad Z8 is built for rich and immersive multimedia experiences. The Snapdragon 650 processor supports high-quality, efficient performance, multimedia, gaming and connectivity, due to its powerful 64-bit CPUs, integrated X8 LTE modem and Qualcomm Adreno 510 GPU.
Other notables are a 8MP rear camera, but there is no front facing camera for video calling. Support for Verizon’s 4G LTE network, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth makes for a seamless network experience with a wide range of supported peripherals.
