Best Tablet PC Reviews, News and 2012 tablets

It seems one of the trends in 2012 for tablets is the high resolution Full HD screen (1920 x 1080 pixels), besides the quad core processor. This means tablets pretty much outrun laptops, ultrabooks and even desktop in the race for performance (I know a quad core CPU is not equivalent to a quad-core mobile SoC, but most consumers don't know that, so it's a comparison they'll make).Acer is one of the manufacturers who had introduced a tablet with these two specs at CES 2012. It's the old rumor...

ASUS launched not one but two tablets from the MeMo lineup, one being last year's model, called ME171 and the other, ME370t, both with a lot to be proud of.First there's the fact both are powered by Android 4.0, have high resolution screens: 1280 x 800 px (very high pixel density for the screen size) and come with capacitive styluses and dedicated apps for taking notes (no handwriting recognition yet, but that's not Asus' fault).The ASUS EEE Pad MeMo ME171 is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual co...

Intel had one of the biggest conference at CES 2012 today, and among the products presented there the second generation of ultrabooks caught my attention, as Intel has made all possible steps to improve performance, decrease thickness, and read this: have touchscreen displays.Intel says touch is the natural way of navigating on a display (somewhat true), but people don't want to get rid of a keyboard (totally true if you don't just want to consume media), that's why a touchscreen ultrabook m...

If you are the proud owner of the ASUS EEE Pad Transformer Prime tablet you'd better sit down, as this is an ugly news for you.ASUS just announced the high end ASUS Eee Pad TF700T Transformer Prime tablet, a high end version of the current Prime, which brings a Full HD screen (1920 x 1080px), an improved 2 Megapixel front facing camera and Android 4.0.1 Ice Cream Sandwich.Price has gone up to $599 for the 32 GB version and $699 for the 64B model, with availability rumored for sometime in...

There were quite a few rumors about ASUS' tablet plans for 2012, but only now, a few days before CES, the company started revealing its roadmap and estimates for this year's tablet market.Let's start with the 3G enabled Transformer Prime, a tablet ASUS said a few weeks ago it has no intention to manufacture. It seems management changed its opinion on this, and a Transformer Prime capable of connecting to GSM/UMTS/CDMA/EVDO/LTE/WiMax, or whichever networks Asus decides to support (not known a...

I know some of you have asked me about Toshiba AT200, the slimmest tablet announced in 2011, which unfortunately didn't make any kind of official retail appearance. Since Toshiba has started claiming it will launch the world's thinnest and lightest 10.1 inch tablet at CES, along with the slimmest and lightest 13.3 inch ultrabook I'm pretty sure the forgotten AT200 will make a new appearance.Maybe Toshiba will update the looks (not quite my style) and bring the specs into 2012. I know I'm ask...

The vast majority of iPad 3 rumors I've been posting about here on AllTouchTablet.com don't have what you would call a solid foundation. Most of them are from the "I know from a trustworthy source" category, but the one I'm going to share with you today has some solid evidence to back it up.In a recent iOS 5.1 beta (available for developers) it was found a mention about next gen iPad and iPhone coming with quad-core processors. This is not a new rumor, as you might recall, but more of a conf...

A few days ago when I wrote about the Google tablet, confirmed to arrive by Google's Chairman Eric Schmidt in a 6 months window, I said that this is probably going to be a 10 inch model.If we are to believe the latest rumors the Google Nexus will be a 7 inch tablet in direct competition with the Amazon Kindle Fire, so it will also be priced the same, at $199. It's interesting to see Android fighting Android, as I'm pretty sure no analyst had anticipated this last year.It's 100% sure it w...

In a market of consumers constantly looking for cheaper and more affordable tablets it's clear Acer wants a piece of the pie, since the manufacturer is known for providing cheap alternatives to its competitors on every segment it covers.While it can't beat the $199 asked for the Amazon Kindle Fire tablet quite yet, Acer's answer is the Iconia TAB A200, a classic 10 inch tablet powered by the already famous Nvidia Tegra 2 platform, but with a slightly better build product than last year's Ace...

Velocity Micro is known as a cheap tablet manufacturer (and other cheap gadgets), so it's no wonder their recently announced Cruz T507 and T510 tablets are priced starting at $150.But make no mistake, these are pretty potent tablets for the price you're paying. The Cruz T507 (7 inch tablet) comes with a 1.2 GHz ARM Cortex CPU, a 400 MHz Mali GPU, 512 MB RAM, 8 GB storage and a capacitive touch screen with 800 x 480 px resolution.The T510 (10 inch tablet) features a slim 8.9 mm body, a 4:...
