Asus Eee Pad Review :  The Pro of The Asus Eee Pad…

Price: When compared to similar tablets on the market, such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab, the Eee Pad comes in slightly cheaper, which may give it an edge for some users. It uses the same processor, so it’s just as powerful as its rival high-end Android tabs with a lower price tag!

Screen: The screen is very large compared to its rivals, which gives great potential for viewing movies, sheet music, presentations or simply typing on a larger keyboard. It also has a high HD resolution. The Gorilla Glass means that the glass is sturdy and scratch-resistant.

Cameras: The Eee Pad comes with two cameras. The 1.3-megapixel camera on the front is enough for video chats over the internet. And, at 5 megapixels, the rear-facing camera is one of the highest quality options available on a tablet today. The camera has the ability to record HD videos, and the HDMI output port lets you watch these on big screen HDTVs.

Flash: The Asus Eee Pad supports Flash, unlike the iPad. This means that you’ll be able to view Flash content around the web, whether that means a Flash-based website, Flash games or Flash videos. Although there are other technologies to play most videos on devices that don’t support Flash, it’s good to know you can watch it if you regularly browse websites using Flash.

Micro-SD Card Slot: The card slot on the device means that you can add extra memory should you need it. Although the 16GB and 32GB storage options will be more than enough for the average user, it’s always a good idea to have the ability to use as much memory as possible, as your needs are only going to grow with time. This is a big advantage over rivals such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab and the iPad.

Keyboard Dock Accessory – The Eee Pad Transformer: Asus have created the Eee Pad Transformer not just as a keyboard dock for this tablet, but also as a way to greatly extend its functionality. This will cost you extra, but when you plug it in you’ll benefit from the following:

* Specific Android function keys for convenience,
* 2x USB 2.0 ports (for connecting external storage or other devices),
* A 4-in-one card reader that means you can read memory cards from cameras or other devices, and even save data from the tablet to your cards.

The Transformer really is an excellent accessory that helps to bridge the gap between your tablet and desktop computer (effectively “transforming” it into a netbook). It makes multitasking and typing a breeze: perfect for anyone who uses it for work or college. When connected to the keyboard dock, the Asus Transformer looks just like a stylish netbook computer.

Battery Life: The 9-hour battery life makes the Asus Eee Pad a serious contender when it comes to true portability without the need to charge it up. Even better, if you use your Eee Pad along with the keyboard dock, you can extend the battery life up to 16 hours in total. This is better than any other tablet on the market, and could be a huge factor for you if you like to work away from a power source but know you’ll still have the space to connect the dock.

Asus Eee Pad Review : The Con of The Asus Eee Pad…

Charger: With the addition of the Transformer accessory, many users will want to use this at home, keeping it plugged in to save battery. Unfortunately the cord on the included charger is very short. If you’re not right next to an outlet, you won’t be able to keep this plugged in while you’re using this.

No 3G Model Available: Unlike the iPad or Motorola Xoom, the Asus Eee Pad doesn’t come with the option of choosing a 3G/ 4G mobile broadband model. What this means is that you’ll need to be near a Wi-Fi hotspot in order to connect to the internet on this tab. Although this makes it cheaper, some people may prefer to have the option of an additional mobile broadband contract if they prefer.

Weight: Although the Asus Eee Pad is still more than light enough to carry around with ease, it’s noticeably heavier than other tablets on the market. It’s over a pound heavier than the Apple iPad 2, for example. In the world of tablet computers, where devices are primarily held in the hands, this weight does matter and may affect usability.

Conclusion of Asus Eee Pad Review.

This really is the only tablet on the market with an accessory that truly has the ability to transform it into a stylish and high performing computer. This is something you’ll be able to work on as if you were sitting at your desk with your standard computer, yet still portable and with a long enough battery life to stay away from a power source for the best part of a day. If that’s something that appeals to you then you may just forgive the Asus Eee Pad its weight! This the end of Asus Eee Pad Review and you are welcome to check other brand to buy tablet PC that suit your need best.

Apple iPad 2 Reviews

Apple iPad 2 Reviews

In the world of tablet computers, the Apple iPad currently holds the crown. The current generation (the iPad 2) saw a number of improvements to the original iPad, notably the addition of two cameras and an improvement on the original processor to boost speed. It’s also sleeker and thinner than ever, but is it really the right tablet computer for you? Let read our Apple iPad 2 review as below:-

Apple iPad 2 Reviews : Key Specs of iPad 2

Apple iPad 2 Reviews : What’s Great About The Apple iPad 2…

Design: Let’s start with one of the iPad’s most impressive features: the design. There’s no denying that the iPad 2 looks fantastic, and feels great in your hands. There’s now a choice of black or white versions of the device, and the new smart covers (see below) help you to personalize the color even more.

Apple has set the bar high when it comes to build quality. Other tablets come close to the iPad 2 in terms of the way they look, but there’s no denying that the iPad has lead the way in terms of how tablets are expected to look.

Weight: The new iPad 2 is lighter than before, coming in at 1.33 lb. When compared to the other bestselling tablets on the market, this is extremely light (only beaten by the Samsung Galaxy Tab). This is an important improvement, as not only does it make it more portable but it also means that the iPad’s now easier to use for longer periods of time.

Processor: The new dual core processor in the iPad 2 means that it’s on a par with the other high-end tablets currently on the market. You can browse the web or load apps with speed (a lot faster than with the original iPad).

 Gaming: Many people also use the iPad to play games, and the good news is that the graphics are noticeably better with the iPad 2. Couple this with having the best app store in the world, and the iPad 2 is probably the most attractive tablet option for gamers.

Apple iPad 2 Reviews on Applications: As mentioned above, the Apple App Store is the biggest in the world. There are hundreds of thousands of apps available: this is where Apple really has the edge over all other tablets. That said, Android Market is catching up and is more open to developers. This means that the Apple App Store won’t necessarily hold the crown forever. For now, however, it will probably have everything you could ever want from an app (and more).

Operating System: The App store isn’t the only good feature of the iOS operating system. iOS is widely regarded as having the best interface among tablet computers. It works well, with a number of inbuilt “gestures” that help you achieve what you need to simply with the way you move your fingers.

That said, there are some complaints of the system. Many people opt for Android because it’s what they’re already used to from their smartphone, or they simply don’t like Apple’s system for notifications and multitasking. There’s no doubt that the operating system you choose does come down to personal preference. But if you already use and love the iPhone, then you’ll be happiest sticking to iOS for your tablet.

Keyboard: The iPad keyboard works very well. Not only is it extremely responsive, but Apple also has a good autocorrect function when you type things incorrectly (which is very important on a touchscreen keyboard). If you do a lot of typing (emails, documents and so on) then a good quality keyboard is a must. You can also get hold of a keyboard dock or wireless keyboard to turn your iPad into a more powerful desktop computer alternative.

Apple iPad 2 reviews on Accessories: Because the iPad is one of the most popular tablets on the market today, there is a huge range of accessories available (both official and third-party). Whether you want a trendy case for your iPad, a keyboard dock, speakers, car charger or anything else, it’ll be easy to find it.

With the release of the iPad 2, Apple also unveiled the new Smart Cover. Although it doesn’t come cheap, it is somewhat unique in the world of tablet computers. It attaches to your iPad magnetically, and automatically wakes up or puts your iPad to sleep when you remove it or put it back on. This is a great, colorful way to keep your screen scratch-free (unfortunately it will scratch if you leave it uncovered).

Battery Life: The battery life on the iPad 2 is second to none. There are currently only a few other tablets that can match the advertised 10 hours (namely the Samsung Galaxy and Motorola Xoom). This is good news if you want to be able to take your iPad out and about for long periods of time, away from a power source.

Apple iPad 2 Reviews : What’s Not So Great About The iPad 2…

No Flash Support: Any review of the iPad has got to include one of its biggest complaints – there is no Flash on the device! Apple have purposely chosen not to support Adobe Flash, despite the fact that it’s used in many games, websites and videos around the net. Thankfully Apple does employ technology that means you can watch videos from YouTube and other websites. However, if you’re into Flash games then this could be a deal-breaker for you.

Screen: There’s no denying that the screen looks great, and has a good viewing angle. However, at 9.7 inches with a resolution of 1024 x 768, there have been no improvements since the original iPad. Many people have questioned why Apple didn’t bring out an HD screen, even though the camera can record HD quality videos.

Cameras: Many people have also questioned Apple’s choice not to include cameras in the original iPad. Although the cameras make a welcome addition to the iPad 2, they are still far behind most other tablets on the market. The front-facing camera (designed for video chats using FaceTime) is extremely low quality. And the rear-facing camera, for photographs and videos, isn’t much better. These don’t make for fantastic photographs, but they do the job.

No USB: This is another common criticism of Apple’s iPad. USB ports are something that many of the iPad’s rivals have chosen to include. The lack of USB ports means that you can’t attach flash storage drives or external peripherals (unless they use Apple’s specific connection), and there’s also no memory slot for adding additional storage space.

Conclusion of Apple iPad 2 Reviews.

As you can see from our Apple iPad 2 Reviews, even the king of the tablets is far from perfect. There really is no such thing as a perfect tablet computer. For many people who already enjoy the Apple operating system on their smartphones, the iPad does come pretty close. It’s very hard to match it in terms of user interface and sheer style, though you may choose to go elsewhere if features such as Flash, USB ports or expandable memory are something you’re really looking for.

Acer Iconia Review

Acer Iconia Review : Buy Tablet PC Online Guide

If you’re already familiar with Windows 7, and would like some continuity in your choice of tablet, then the Acer Iconia is the only feasible choice on the market today. But aside from the fact that it runs on the Windows operating system, is this really the tablet you should spend your hard earned cash on? Below Acer Iconia Review will help you to understand better Acer Iconia.

Acer Iconia Review : Key Specs For The Acer Iconia W500-BZ467

* Costs in $500 range
* Released in 2011
* Runs on Windows 7
* 7.48 x 10.83 x 0.63 inches in size
* Weighs 2.14 lb. / 0.97 kg
* 10.1 inch screen
* 1024 x 768 resolution
* 32GB storage space
* AMD C-50 1 GHz processor
* Wi-Fi & Bluetooth connectivity
* 1.3 MP cameras
* 6 hour battery life

Acer Iconia Review : The Pro of Acer Iconia…

 Screen: The Acer Iconia looks and feels surprisingly good, with bold colors. Although it’s not an HD screen, HD videos look great. You do have to make sure your finger touches are very precise, however, which could take a little getting used to.

Sound: As far as tablets go, the Acer Iconia features a good set of speakers. That said, no tablet speakers are designed for perfect sound quality, so you’ll want a good quality set of earphones if you want to enjoy your music or movies in all their glory.

Ease of Use: The screen works well to get to where you want to go, and many users will be happy that a more high-end tablet finally features Windows 7. If you’re used to using Windows 7 and its applications then you’ll be glad to find a tablet that provides some continuity between tablet and your standard computer.

Keyboard Attachment: One of the real benefits of the Iconia comes from the add-on that’ll turn your tablet into a small laptop. It attaches to the base of the device and makes it extremely easy to type on your keyboard. Perfect for anyone who’d like to work on their tablet like a laptop computer, typing emails or documents with ease (though bear in mind that the accessory will cost you more money).

SD Slot: Having a full-sized SD slot is a great addition for many. Most of the tablets that do feature a slot choose to include a micro-SD slot instead. Although the latter is good for adding external memory, it’s not compatible with most camera memory cards. Having a full SD card slot means you can transfer photos from your camera directly (and you can purchase an adapter if you’d like the ability to use micro-SD cards, too).

USB 2.0: There are two USB 2.0 ports on the Acer Iconia, which is useful for connecting external peripherals or storage (this is especially important for users with a lot of files – see below).

Above are the summary of great point on our Acer Iconia review. Now let take a look on what are the disadvantages of Ace Iconia.

Acer Iconia Review : The Con of Acer Iconia…

On Screen Keyboard: Although no on-screen keyboard is perfect, and it’s always easier to type on a physical version, there have been many complaints about the Iconia’s virtual keyboard. This is bad news for people who can’t afford the extra keyboard attachment!

Storage Space: 32GB is by no means a bad option for hard disk size, but you need to know that Windows 7 takes up a lot of space on the tablet – far more than Google Android or Apple iOS. You’ll only really be left with just over 19GB of space for your own files!

19GB will be enough for some music and a lot of apps, but if you like to store movies or have a particularly big music library you’ll probably find this very limiting (especially as there are no higher storage options available to buy). The good news is that you can expand the storage space with an SD card, or by plugging in a USB storage device.

Cameras: The camera quality isn’t the best on this device, with both the front and the rear-facing cameras coming in at 1.3 megapixels. This is unusual since most tablets go for a higher quality camera at the back.

Battery Life: Unfortunately, the battery life isn’t great on the Iconia and it simply can’t compete with the best competitors on the market. The advertised six hours still means you can get a lot of out of the device, but many testers have confirmed that it usually lasts for more like four hours.

Size/ Weight: This really isn’t a lightweight tablet, and there’s no getting around it. There are far lighter and slimmer tablets on the market. As such, this doesn’t feel as comfortable in your hands. Again, this is another situation where the added keyboard dock is going to make the tablet a lot easier to use.

Conclusion of Acer Iconia Review.

The best thing that this tablet has going for it is that it’s a relatively high-end Windows 7 tablet – the only one available. If you’re looking for other Windows tablets, you’re going to find it difficult to find many decent options. unfortunately, in our Acer Iconia review, we notice there are some big disadvantages to the Acer Iconia. If you’re looking for something more user friendly and still good value for money then you might consider an Android tablet, such as the Xoom or Galaxy Tab, instead.
