If you remember, the Huawei Mediapad was meant to be one of the first 7 inch Honeycomb tablets, but it got delayed to the point Viewsonic Viewpad 7x will probably beat it to market. Apparently Huawei is almost done with the hardware and software optimizations as the latest pricing and official release dates were unveiled by the company.Huawei is a company with a big presence in Asia, that's why in October it will launch the Mediapad tablet in Malaysia, with US, China, Hong Kong, and Thailand...

Nvidia was a few years ago a major player in the desktop motherboard chipset market, but Intel managed to push them away, so right now Nvidia is strong in the ARM SoC (System on a chip) market, where the Tegra 2 seems to be the processor of choice in 2011 tablets.You know already of the Kal-El project, a codename for the commercial Tegra 3, the first quad-core processor for mobile devices [see our articles here]. As the official launch date approaches, more info about the hardware architectu...

One of the places people don't use their iPad tablet could be the kitchen, or at least that's what you would believe. Belking is not so sure so it launched three tablet accessories: Fridge Mount for iPad 2, Kitchen Cabinet Mount and, Chef Stand + Stylus, three products designed to be used in the kitchen.While the Fridge Mount for iPad 2 is not compatible with other tablets, the other two products work with pretty much any slate you might have already purchased. Now let's take the three Be...

ASUS EEE Pad Slider is certainly one of the most interesting tablets with a spectacular sliding keyboard design. We've talked about it here at AllTouchTablet.com for a while [read review here], but up until now it was nowhere to be seen in stores and where it was listed for pre-order there was an uncertainty towards when we'll actually be able to buy ASUS' sliding tablet.As of today it come to our attention that the ASUS EEE Pad Slider was already listed on Newegg, B&H and Amazon (US and...

Now that Microsoft is starting to release more and more details about the upcoming Windows 8 operating system, the one which will work on desktops, servers, laptops and tablets, we start to hear rumors about products in development.The latest points towards HTC working already at a tablet with a Qualcomm CPU, not released yet. HTC was once a close partner with Microsoft during the Windows Mobile era. Since Microsoft proved unable to code a decent mobile operating system HTC turned slowly to ...

We haven't talked in a while about the Motorola Xoom, the first tablet with Android Honeycomb, but as of today new rumors point towards a smaller 7 inch Xoom that made its first appearance as a leaked blurry image.It's not actual proof, as anyone can take an out-of-focus picture of the Acer Iconia A100 and say it's the new 7 inch Motorola Xoom. I haven't accidentally mentioned the Acer Iconia A100, a tablet with slightly curved edges, very similar with the tablet pictured below. The screen ...

It's pretty clear that up until now 10 inch tablets were the ones users were buying. I would say it's pretty obvious since the iPad and iPad 2 are ten inch slates that have dominated the market in 2010 and 2011. But things are bound to change, as some consumers start realise a 4:3 aspect ratio screen that big is not the best size for a tablet.It may also be that the offer is really diversified right now and consumers are willing to try something different. Anyway, a recent graph I come upon ...

Now that Windows 8 started to bite into iOS territory it's normal for someone to pit together the two operating systems and compare them at the following chapters: lock screens, icons and movement, customization, browsers (Safari vs. IE 10), keyboard head to head, settings and control panel, built in search.I'm sure you can find more features worth comparing, but I guess the 11 minutes video at the end of this post (courtesy of Winrumors) is in-depth enough to be worth watching. The t...

One of the tablets we've been talking about much at AllTouchTablet is the Blackberry Playbook (see thread here) that despite its not so stellar sales performance is one of the best tablets as hardware is concerned. But it doesn't matter much, as software is the one thing that sets apart looser tablets from winners.So it's quite important for RIM to do something after Q2 shipments for Blackberry Playbook barely topping only 200.000 units, with actual sold units counting even lower. The action...
