{Standard|Regular|Typical} tablets may be {losing sight of|moving away from} style, but that {has not|have not|hasn't already} stopped Asus and Verizon from hooking up to launch a new {standing|record} {for many who} want an {Google android|Android os} device bigger {than the usual mobile phone|than the usual smart phone|than the usual touch screen phone|when compared to a mobile phone|when compared to a smart phone|when compared to a touch screen phone|compared to a mobile phone|compared to a smart phone|compared to a touch screen phone} to use on the go with the carrier's 4G network.

The ZenPad Z8 is a Verizon exclusive that attempts to inject some life into the staid 7. 9-inch tablet form factor. {Particularly|Specifically|Especially}, the carrier is {phoning|contacting|dialling} the Z8 "{a media|a multimedia system|a multi-media} powerhouse" thanks to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 hexacore processor (also used in Xiaomi's Redmi Note 3 phablet), {set of|couple of} front-facing {loudspeakers|audio speakers|audio system}, and the Asus VisualMaster suite of image-enhancing {systems|technology|solutions}.

Those enhancements, which include Tru2Life technology for {clarity|acrimony  roughness     unsavoriness} optimization and intelligent {comparison|distinction|compare} adjustment, were touted when Asus rolled out the ZenPad Z300M and Z380M tablets last month. {Yet|Nevertheless|Although} whereas those ZenPads were saddled with a people 1, 280x800 screen, the Z8 sports a higher-res 2, 048x1, 536 screen. It offers an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera (along with a 2-megapixel front-facing webcam) as opposed to the 5-megapixel one out of the Z300M and Z380M, though they all {talk about|show} Asus' PixelMaster tech to enhance {image|photography} quality.

The Z8 also contains TWO GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, and runs the {newest version|more recent version} of Android, 6. 0 Marshmallow. But perhaps {most of all|above all|most significantly}, it comes with support for Verizon's 4G LTE network, which not only {enables you to|allows you to|permits you to} {hook up} to the Net when a Wi-Fi network isn't available, but also allows for features such as making and {obtaining|acquiring} video calls from the Z8 when it's {connected|associated} to a smartphone {able|in a position|competent} of HD Voice and video calling and using Verizon's Messages app. {It can|Is actually|Really} ready to handle Verizon's upgraded XLTE network, that can be rolling away across the country since launching in 2014.

{In contrast to|As opposed to|Contrary to} some of Verizon's {earlier|prior|past} exclusive tablet offerings, which tended toward the lower end in features, the ZenPad Z8 retains a similar price tag with snazzier specs. It's available for pre-order on Verizon's site for $249. 99 and will be in brick-and-mortar Verizon stores starting on June 23, {It is also|Additionally it is|Recharging options} available for $149. 99 with a two-year Verizon service agreement, or {$10,50|$12|$20}. 41 per month for two years of {obligations|repayments}.
