We've presented a few weeks ago the Huawei S7, a 7 inch Android slate tablet, that made an impression with its slim body design, high quality build and 720p HD video playback capabilities. It was slated to be released at the beginning of July in US, but it seems things got delayed to August, and now to September 6th, when it will hit shelves in two versions, a 359 $ one and a 449 $ that comes with a 32 GB SDHC card.As we've mentioned it will come with Android 2.1 OS, and we don't know if it ...

Remember the article I've wrote about cheap Android tablets? It seems that KMart is also planning on releasing a cheap slate tablet powered by Android, made by Augen, which will sell for around 150$. That's more than adequate for a 7 inch tablet slate (800 x 480 pixels resolution), an 800 MHz CPU, 256 MB RAM and 2 GB internal storage, expandable through SD cards up to 16 GB in size. The Android OS version is 2.1, which is nice, considering that usually cheap tablets come with older versions. A l...

Most gadgets now come from China, the best and the worst at the same time. It's not something you didn't knew already and I bet you don't care if the price is right. Chile T7-3G is another 7 inch tablet, this time with 3G connectivity out of the box. It's a slate tablet that looks rather interesting and isn't trying to copy any successful product already on market, as design is concerned.This doesn't mean the Chile T7-3G is a contender for the iPad, far from it, but if the price is right (no...

As you can imagine, the turn consumer did towards tablets means a lot of manufacturers are trying their luck with this new niche, but not all of them have the expertize and power to build something truly unique, like Apple did with the iPad. Hell, not even names like HP, Dell, Microsoft come up with something better than the iPad. EzGear doesn't try to be the best (good for them), but has its own concept, a 7 inch tablet powered by Android called Surfboard 700. It doesn't look like something pow...

Germany is one of the biggest IT markets in Europe and this means sometimes special offers there are better than the ones in US. One such offer is the Smartpad Android Tablet offered by the 1 & 1 telecom provider for free for each data plan you sign up for. Free doesn't say much about what you're getting so I'll spill it out for you: a 7 inch tablet running Android 1.6 with a custom UI and some preinstalled apps (you'll be able to install more from a custom app store, which I already hate). ...

Toshiba proved once again it's the kind of company that sets trends, don't follow them, with the official announcement of the Libretto W100 dual screen touch tablet with two 7 inch multi touch enabled displays. We know now that the Libretto W100 is not a concept, but a consumer product you'll be able to actually buy starting August, from Amazon, for around 1000$. That's a little bit too much for a laptop with an ULV CPU and a second screen, but that's the price to pay for being an early adopter....

It's not the first time we're talking here about dual screen tablets, mostly prototypes. Now it's time to take a look at the Toshiba Libretto W100, the first official product that's going up for sale. Libretto W100 was announced at the 25th Toshiba anniversary and is really a product to look forward to if you're an early adopter.It's not perfect, far from it, but it offers features that appeal to tech geeks like the dual 7 inch screen, very low weight (1.8 pounds with battery) and a fully fl...
