 | Lenovo IdeaTab S2109, 9.7 inch, 580 grams (1.28 lbs) The Lenovo IdeaTab S2109 is an Android 4.0 tablet with a 1 GHz TI OMAP 4430 dual core processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 9.7 inch, 1024 x 768 pixel display. Unlike some other relatively cheap tablets, the IdeaTab S2109 includes Bluetooth 3.0, a micro HDMI output, and a microSDHC card for expansion. It also has a front-facing 1.3MP camera. | ||
 | Coby Kyros MID 9742-8, 9.7 inch, 560 grams (1.23 lbs) The Coby Kyros MID9742-8 is an 9.7" Android 4.0 Tablet with an 1GHz single core processor and 1GB of RAM. It does not have Google Play Store access but has Getjar store pre installed. It does playback 1080p videos and has an integrated miniHDMI out. Its 8GB of internal storage can be easily expanded with an up to 32GB microSD Card. | ||
 | ASUS Transformer Pad ( TF300T), 10.1 inch, 586 grams (1.29 lbs) A good upgrade from the original Transformer. The Transformer Pad TF300T is the first device to use Nvidia's Tegra 3 platform. The optional keyboard has an additional battery which will allow the Transformer to run up to 18 hours, according to Asus. The add-on nature of this keyboard makes the Transformer Prime a versatile device; able to function as a standalone tablet, or as a laptop-style productivity device. Unfortunately the tablet itself is somewhat lacking in the port department, with only Micro HDMI, MicroSD, and a proprietary dock connector on the tablet itself. Adding the keyboard will also bring along with it a full-sized SD card reader and full-sized USB 2.0 port, though it would have been nice to see one full-sized USB port on the tablet itself along with another on the keyboard for adding a mouse and an external storage device. | ||
 | Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet, 10.1 inch, 715 grams (1.58 lbs) The Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet is a standard Tegra 2 device with 3G options and up to 64GB Storage.
