Due to its plastic casing the Transformer doesn't have the best build quality in the world, especially when compared to the more expensive Prime. A lot of parts of the tablet are a bit too flexible. Most worrying is the plastic rear cover of the tablet section which has too much give.

The keyboard dock is also a bit on the bendy side but importantly the hinge which the tablet slots into is sturdy and solidly holds the two parts together.

Despite the Transformer Pad 300's suppleness it still feels like it's been put together properly. See also: ?

Despite the face the Pad 300 is £100 cheaper than the Prime, the specifications stack up surprisingly well. Under the plastic covers is the same nVidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor and 1GB of RAM.
