Best Tablet PC Reviews, News and 2012 tablets

Don't worry that you haven't heard about HTC Jetstream, which is nothing else than a renamed Puccini tablet (which we've covered a few times here) that's being sold by AT&T. Currently it seems to be the most powerful Android tablet you can buy, but there's a catch, and a big one: it costs $700 with a 2-year subscription to AT&T's services and $850 without a commitment.I personally don't get why AT&T wants to price HTC's latest 10 inch tablet, the Jetstream/Puccini, so high except...

We've been talking about the upcoming Amazon tablet for a while (see some of the posts here) and now we finally have true confirmation together with lots of details about what officially will be called the Amazon Kindle tablet. MG from Techcrunch got the chance to play with it and was introduced to Amazon's strategy for this particular type of device.We knew the Amazon Kindle tablet would be cheap, and now we know it will cost $250 for the 7 inch version, the only one to launch this year, N...

The iPad 2 can do a lot of things but up until now watching over-the-air TV was now an option. Sure you could get TV channels streamed over the Internet, but a true TV watcher needs an iPad 2 accessory like the Elgato EyeTV Mobile dongle which connects on the charging/sync port of your iPad 2 and brings DVB-T radio transmissions directly to your tablet's screen.Elgato EyeTV Mobile dongle costs only 99 EUR (possibly $99 in US and Canada when the ATSC version is ready) and features a small bod...

Sony is one of the players constantly raising the bar in the eReader market, and their latest product is even better. Sony Reader Wi-Fi (PRS-T1) is the lightest 6 inch eReader in the worlds, at only 168 grams (5.93 ounces). It's also one of the slimmest, at only 8.9 mm.Now let's talk a little bit about the features of Sony Reader WiFi: it uses a 6 inch E Ink Pearl display with 600 x 800 pixels resolution, on top of which there the "Clear Touch Infrared", a fancy name for the IR  technolog...

One of my favourite tablets that fell into my hands this year, the 7 inch Blackberry Playbook tablet just got better as a discount up to $150 has been applied by the BestBuy retailer. As the HP Touchpad significant price discount has shown us, people will buy even a dying tablet if the price is right.It's not the case with the Blackberry Playbook, a tablet that RIM is updating each month, but the same pricing as the iPad 2 is not doing it any favours. So it's clear why Best Buy decided to...

We've been dreaming about cheap Android tablets for some time now and the list we've made a while ago didn't particularly include known brands. As of today we ought to update our list of cheap Android tablet with the Lenovo Ideapad A1, a $200 7 inch tablet launched by Lenovo that will start selling for only $199. That's the 8GB version.The 16 GB will be $249 and you must add another $50 to get to 32 GB. It's not a bad deal for a tablet that's essentially last year's Samsun Galaxy Tab 7. Tak...

One of the two products rumoured to be launched by Samsung at IFA Berlin wast the Galaxy Note, a mysterious device that made us think of a note taking tablet. We here about two thirds right, as the newly announced Samsung Galaxy Note is a 5.3 superphone or mini tablet, if you like, that comes with the S-Pen stylus for taking notes in a few custom apps.Disappointed? Personally I'm not, as I start to believe the Samsung Galaxy Note could be that portable all-in-one device (except work) that co...

Remember the last week rumor with a thinner Toshiba tablet? That materialized today with the Toshiba AT200 Excite, announced at IFA Berlin as world's thinnest 10.1 inch tablet at only 7.7mm (0.303 inch). That's an achievement no matter what you say, but weight is not in line with the thinness, as at 1.2 lbs it's much heavier than the 0.73 lbs Samsung Galaxy TAB 7.7.Personally I don't care that much about weight and thinness as long as those values are kept reasonable, but I do care about th...

This is the day Samsung announced officially at IFA Berlin the Galaxy TAB 7.7 tablet, rumored a few days ago. As we've guessed before this is a 7.7 inch screen tablet that falls right between the previous Galaxy TAB 7 from last year and this year's Galaxy TAB 8.9. With it and the Galaxy Note Samsung hopes to cover almost all possible tablet diagonals.You can't blame them, but don't think for a moment the Samsung Galaxy TAB 7.7 is just a smaller tablet from the Korean manufacturer, as there a...

At the same conference where it announced the Tablet S [read review here] at IFA Berlin, Sony also presented the dual screen Tablet P model, previously known as Sony S2. No review units were send to the press, so we'll have to make do with the hands on previews posted from the event by press members.I'm not going to repeat what I've said about the Sony Tablet S today, so I'm planning to focus on the differences between the two and the dual screen functionality of the Tablet P. The Sony Servi...
