Asus Fonepad is a series of 6", 7" and 8" tablet computers with mobile cellular telephony capability (and is therefore considered a "phablet") developed by ASUS.[1] The first model, the Fonepad ME371MG, was launched on April 24, 2013, in India, and April 26 in UK.[2] Six months later, in September 2013, the Asus Fonepad 7 2014 Edition was launched,[3] followed by the Fonepad 8, and an upgraded 7, in June 2014.[4] On August 26, 2014, Asus launched the Asus Fonepad 7 2014 edition (FE7530CXG), which is a 3G phone calling tablet with an Intel Atom Z3560 processor, 1GB RAM, a 7-inch 1280x800 screen, and Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.[5]

In 2014 Asus appointed PT Dragon Computer & Communication and PT Metrodata Electronics to distribute Asus Fonepad devices in Indonesia.
