Customer Review

I have the Toshiba Folio 100 has now been a week in use and am, after initial skepticism, quite satisfied with the device.

The device provides the closest thing you can get hardware to Android tablets so (with the exception of the display), NVIDIA Tegra 2 1GHz dual-core with 16GB of internal memory and 512MB RAM, which currently has no other tablet!

It offers all kinds of connections, the so also has no other tablet (2 * USB, 1 * SD card, headset, dock, infrared remote control, HDMI output) and is also well finished (fully transparent "glass" surface, plastic back panel). On the front are next to a microphone (for telephony, or Voice Search), a camera (eg for video chatting) and 4 sensor buttons on the usual Android can switch functions (big advantage vs.. Eg the Archos, which has no buttons and everything makes using the touch screen using a pop-button field. This results in almost all applications to problems, or some defeated by even not at all!).

Another major advantage of tablets over others (and even the iPad) is the replaceable battery. With such expensive equipment to build in a battery firmly I consider unacceptable, because then when the battery is sometimes the mind gives up needed an expensive replacement of the entire device.

One drawback of the folio is the display which is not nearly as bad, however, as is often claimed. The angle at Folio is relatively low, but only vertically. Horizontal, he is quite good and you can eg. No problem with it on the couch someone his photos show (or similar).
Moreover, it is also easily possible to lay the device flat and thus to surf the Internet, since the contrast of the display is maintained even when strong inclined attitude (black lettering on a white background is easy to read), only the colors of eg pictures are distorted by the oblique stance , All in all I am anyway satisfied with the display, it is relatively light and offers beautiful colors (if the device is not inclined to hold).

Another - perhaps the greatest - drawback is the software from Toshiba. Even after the firmware update I can not make friends with it. The unit still has no flash (but can be re-install) and you can not access the 'normal' Android Market.

Would you bound, I would give the device 3 stars. However, there are now alternative ways that the tablet in a full quasi transform Android device, then works the market and it can be eg. Using Sipdroid also calls for use! In addition, it runs so liquid a lot.

Due to this possibility, I give the unit 5 stars.
