ASUS Tranformer Prime TF300T: Mobile World Congress 2012 Top 10 Tablet Preview [PHOTOS]

Asus may be ready to take over the Android tablet world in 2012, and they'll have their chance starting Monday at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. That's when they could debut the Transformer Prime TF300T, a follow-up to the original Transformer tablet.

That follow-up was thought to be the Transformer Prime TF201, but the TF300T may end up not being a quad-core device like the 201. It could be a dual-core device like the original, and perhaps not cost quite as much as the 201. Whatever Prime device comes out, it will one of dozens of new devices ready to explode onto the mobile scene.

MWC is the biggest all-mobile event of the year, so everyone will be there, except for Apple. Samsung will not be making a keynote either this year, but they will be debuting new devices. There will be smartphones and tablets and accessories galore, of course, but this is just about 10 of the hottest new tablets we could see at the annual event. Some of them have been leaked, others are just rumors, and still others are much closer to an actual launch.

Of course, not every new device is in this list because not every one has been leaked, but it should be an exciting show for mobile technology fans. Start the slideshow to see the top 10 tablets we expect to see at MWC 2012.

Tell us in the comments which device you are most excited about or most suspicious of.

A 10.1-inch tablet with stylus compatibility is said to be in the works for Samsung. If so, it would be the highest profile 10-inch tablet to come with a stylus. Other tablets that have debuted with the stylus have been targeted toward business users, and have been priced accordingly. This would be a consumer oriented tablet, hence the Note name, just like the AT&T smartphone.

Huawei has a seven-inch device, but it's rumored to be debuting a 10-inch tablet for MWC. It could debut with an eight megapixel camera, microSD card, Android 4.0 and 3G antenna, but that is all that's known so far.

Padfone is a combination phone and tablet where the phone connects to the tablet and powers the whole thing. It was previewed at CES in January, but it could see a full unveiling at MWC.

ViewSonic showed off their ViewPad E70 at CES, and the G70 could be its sequel. It's rumored to be a seven-inch Android 4.0 tablet with a 1024x600p resolution display, four gigabytes of storage, 3G radio and maybe even a $350 price tag.

A new leak indicates the TF300 could look more like the CES shown TF700 (Prime HD). A quad-core beast with eight megapixel camera and Android 4.0. TF300 may be a quad-core device with 1280x800p resolution instead of the 1920x1200p resolution on the 700. However, tech blog TabletOWO's leak indicates the 700 may be a dual-core device. It's a bit confusing, but this is a preview, so we'll have to wait for next week like everyone else.

WikPad previewed this hybrid gaming device/tablet at CES, and it's an eight-inch device with Android 4.0 and glasses free 3-D. The contoller cradle pictured here was non functional at CES, so perhaps at MWC, a more advanced version will show up.

The Google Tablet is a highly anticipatd seven-inch tablet with Android 4.0 that is rumored to debut at just $199. The Nexus Tablet, as it's been called, is also rumored to go on sale sooner rather than later, but that's how these previews go. Expect an announcement if not a true unveiling at MWC this year.

Sony showed off their prototype crystal display LED HDTV at CES, and it's rumored they may be building the technology into a tablet. Sony will be offering something at MWC, but this one may be a let down. The HDTV Sony showed off had nearly 90 degree viewing angles and impressive color.

The MeMo is a seven-inch tablet with a quad-core system, Android 4.0 and a rumored $250 price tag. A true game changer if true, and it could easily take on the Kindle Fire even though it's priced higher.

HTC needs to debut something that isn't middling and isn't overpriced like the Jetstream. HTC is rumored to be working on gaining Sony PlayStation certification for its smartphones, so maybe that will show up on their unnamed tablet.
