ASUS ZenPad 8.0: Price in India, Features and Specifications

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) features a compact 8-inch IPS LCD display with a WXGA resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels and a pixel density of approximately 189 PPI — delivering clear and comfortable visuals for everyday reading, streaming, and browsing. ASUS VisualMaster technology enhances colour reproduction beyond standard IPS performance. Corning Gorilla Glass 1 provides basic scratch resistance. Since the device is permanently discontinued, all display details are for informational reference only.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) is available in two hardware configurations — the 1GB RAM variant powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (MSM8916) with a quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and Adreno 306 GPU, and the 2GB RAM variant powered by the Snapdragon 415 (MSM8929) with an octa-core CPU and Adreno 405 GPU. The 2GB RAM variant delivers noticeably better everyday performance and is the strongly recommended configuration. Both chipsets are on 28nm and very significantly dated by 2026 standards.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) features two camera configurations depending on the variant — the 1GB RAM variant has a 5MP f/2.0 rear camera, while the 2GB RAM variant has an 8MP f/2.0 rear camera. Both variants share a 2MP f/2.2 front camera and support 1080p rear video recording. The 2GB/8MP variant is the stronger camera configuration. Neither variant features an LED flash. All camera details are for informational reference only as the device is permanently discontinued.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) launched on Android 5.0 Lollipop with ASUS ZenUI — a feature-rich custom interface — and received a final update to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow. As a permanently discontinued device, software support has fully ended. Running Android 6.0.1 in 2026 means the vast majority of modern apps will no longer be compatible or functional — a critical consideration for anyone evaluating a second-hand purchase.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) came in two storage configurations — 8GB paired with 1GB RAM and 16GB paired with 2GB RAM — both with a dedicated microSDXC card slot supporting expandable storage up to 64GB. The 16GB + 2GB RAM variant is strongly recommended. ASUS also included 5GB lifetime ASUS WebStorage and 100GB of Google Drive storage for two years at launch. All storage details are for informational reference only as the device is permanently discontinued.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) covers comprehensive connectivity for a 2015 budget 4G tablet — supporting 4G LTE Cat4 (150/50Mbps), 3G HSPA, 2G GSM, single-band Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 with aptX, GPS + GLONASS, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and Micro-USB 2.0. The 4G LTE support with voice calling is the key differentiator over the Wi-Fi-only Z380C and Z380M variants. NFC and FM radio are not supported. All connectivity details are based on the India launch variant.

The ASUS ZenPad 8.0 (Z380KL) features a 4,000mAh battery — delivering approximately 10 hours of everyday multimedia usage per charge for reading and streaming. Since the device is permanently discontinued and over a decade old, significant battery degradation is a certainty for any existing unit. All battery details are for informational reference only.
