# Tag-Teaming Tablet Tools The Asus Padfone Will Let You Place Your Smartphone Inside Your Tablet By Jason Soy | Published 2011-05-31 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asus-padfone References: [ohgizmo](http://www.ohgizmo.com/2011/05/30/asus-unveils-their-padfone-a-tablet-that-gobbles-up-a-smartphone/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed) & [event.asus](http://event.asus.com/mobile/padfone/) As much as I love smartphones, sometimes I just want to use my apps on a much larger screen, and now I can do that with the [Asus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asus-rog-flow-z13acrnm-rmt02) Padfone. Being sold as a combo pack, the Asus Padfone is a phone which can be placed into an accompanying tablet. Now you have the convenience of a smartphone, but also the ease of use, functionality and larger work area of a tablet. The Asus Padfone’s tablet sports a 10.1 inch screen with 1280x800 resolution and runs on Android. One of my favorite features though of this tag-teaming tech pair is that the tablet has a built-in charger for your phone, so you can literally pop it into your tablet as soon as the little red low-battery graphic pops up on your screen and continue on working. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Combo Pack Technology:** Opportunity to develop innovative products that combine the functionality of different devices into one. - **Device Integration:** Potential for creating seamless integration between devices to enhance user experience and convenience. - **Mobile Workstations:** Leveraging the power of smartphones and tablets to create efficient and portable workstations. ### Where This Applies - **Technology:** Developing new devices and technologies that offer seamless integration and convenience for users. - **Consumer Electronics:** Creating innovative consumer electronics products that combine the functionality of smartphones and tablets. - **Mobile Computing:** Exploring the potential of mobile computing devices as efficient workstations for professionals on the go. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hybrid Three-in-One Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phoenix-note-tablet.md) - [Stand-Attached Smart Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixel-tablet.md) - [Double-Display Smartphone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duo-phone.md) - [Mobile-Focused Touchscreen Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nexpad.md) - [Smart Hub Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-pixel-tablet.md) - [Deluxe Dual-Screen Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-pixel-fold.md) - [Large-Screen Android Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oscal-pad-18.md) - [Flagship Productivity Tablets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oneplus-pad-3.md) - [Triple-Folding Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huawei-mate-xt.md)
