What does Asus do to ICS

[Fahrenheit38]

Like how HTC and Samsung put there interface on top. Does Asus do anything like that?

No, like do they do anything like touchwiz or sence

He's asking if there's any skins on top of stock android. From my understanding, they kept it mostly stock. There's a few little things added, but they didn't add in a whole ton. I haven't had a chance to look at most of them, but when I looked at the Prime at Best Buy, it felt pretty stock, except for a few Asus widgets and apps.

They're both very capable devices. I'd be careful about ordering a Nexus 7 unless you know you can deal with the scaled down specs. I know personally I wouldn't be buying this tablet unless it had a dock, microSD card slot, or a fast CPU like the Tegra 3. But Asus does a good job apparently with their software...and they keep it updated really fast and often.

Asus doesn't really skin ics like Samsung and HTC. Its pretty stock. They do add a couple of company apps that are worthy of the device and don't feel like bloatware. App locker is a great Asus app and Asus has added their own cloud storage which really deserves to be utilized.
