The MeMO Pad 7 has a smaller 7-inch 720p display powered by a 64-bit Intel Atom Z3745 quad-core processor. There's a 5 MP camera at the back as well on the MeMO Pad 7.

The MeMO Pad 8 is what Asus claims is "the world's lightest 8-inch LTE tablet." The 8-inch display has a 1080p resolution and is powered by the fastest processor of the bunch, Intel Atom Z3580 quad-core clocked at 2.3 GHz. It comes with both WiFi and LTE connectivity. The MeMO Pad 8 is a premium tablet and comes with a multi-layered Metal chassis and weighs in at about 299 grams with a 7.3 mm thin body.

All three tablets are expected to make an appearance in Q3 2014 but there is no word on that or pricing at the moment.
