Question 1

Does the dock include a separate battery?

Accepted Answer

No it does not but battery life is pretty good and if you are looking for a solution to your tablet & laptop needs this thing is great. Use it just like a laptop with the keyboard and mouse touch pad. Or add a bluetooth mouse. You can also use the touchscreen in laptop mode. The tablet itself has the standard micro usb dock but the base has a full size usb plug so you should be able to use a regular mouse too. The mounting to the base is sturdy and another bonus, when mounted the base keeps the screen well protected.

Question 2

Does this come with Microsoft Office ?

Accepted Answer

Microsoft Office comes preinstalled, but you have to redeem the code that should be in the box. This was true with the tablet I purchased a few months ago. The manufacturer's website seems to suggest that this still is the case.

Question 3

new or refurb?

Accepted Answer

Given the already attractive price of a new unit, I would recommend that over a refurbished one.

Question 4

Can one use a mouse with this tablet?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can. You can use a Bluetooth mouse or a usb mouse on the dock. You could even use a usb wireless dongle mouse as well as long as the driver is supported.

Question 5

Does this have a cam/ camera to use with Skype?

Accepted Answer

It does have a camera on the screen side, and I do see some apps in the play store for Skype. I don't use Skype however, so I can't go any farther than that.

Question 6

Is this new in sealed box?

Accepted Answer

Mine was. Everything was pristine as you would expect it.

Question 7

Question 8

Does the Asus Transformer PAD TF103 have a USB port?

Accepted Answer

Yes it does, on the keyboard. It allows you to plug in a USB flash drive and then browse and edit the files using their file manager app.

Question 9

Does the TF103C-A1-Bundle come with a docking cable?

Accepted Answer

No. tablet to keyboard technology uses either hard connect or Bluetooth, not a cable. In this case, the bundle includes the hard connect keyboard which is the beauty of this configuration. Also, the keyboard has keys unique to running the tablet such as volume up/down which a standard keyboard would not do without custom keyboard settings.

Awesome tablet if you have a need or want keyboard input for office apps, surfing, etc. I like it way better than my iPad. Only downside is a long time to recharge the battery and battery life is shorter than many tablets, but I don't use it for long stretches where I am not able to connect it to a power source.

Question 10

Is this have wi-fi and 4G?

Accepted Answer

It depends on which one you purchase. There is a wifi only version and a wifi/4G version.
