Android Headlines shared what it says are official images of the ASUS Pad, along with a handful of key specs. The renders show a fairly clean-looking tablet with slim, uniform bezels on the front, a metal frame with slightly curved edges, and a flat back panel. Around the back, there’s a modest camera island in the corner housing a single camera and an LED flash.
The report says the tablet will feature a 12.2-inch dual-layer OLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, which would certainly appeal to streaming fans.

Other leaked details include a thickness of 6.5mm, a weight of 523g, stereo speakers, and Dolby Atmos support.
