Asus EeePad Transformer Prime TF201 - Microsoft Office

Cravez · 07-05-2012 11:37AM #1

Hi guys

Just a quick question in regards this tablet. I'm looking for a tablet in general but also am thinking of a laptop for college next year. With this transformer tablet it has the qwerty keyboard attachment which would make it ideal for both and it seems thin and handy to carry around if I did go to college. My main question however is would I be able to use Microsoft Office applications with this tablet and the Android 4.0 OS? I'll most likely be needing these types of applications/programs when going to college so just wondering if anyone has any experiences of being able to use MS Office Application with it?

Thanks!

I use Office Suite Pro on my TF201, (50% off until May, 14th!)

Got it on sale a while back, but out of all the different office apps I found this one the best for working on docs between my pc, phone and tablet. supports all office formats.

Throw in this app too if you have a BT/wifi printer

Depending on your course its likely that google drive will do everything you need and more.

Why not just wait till the end or the year for a decent windows slate. Anything that works with windows won't work on Android. Two different worlds.

The Office Suites and Google docs are fine for typing up notes, but try to make a presentation or a thesis on it and you'll want to throw it out the window

There's also Office 365 from Microsoft themselves. Might be worth a look.
