If you’ve been following thetablet PERSONAL COMPUTER market in the last couple of years, you’d have spotted that it’s become quite the battle royale. Makers rush to surpass one another re speed and features, while keeping their costs competitive. While that’s all very well and good for the consumers, it can be a challenge to choose the best one for you. Hence, we’ll take an early tablet PC review of the two much awaited tablets from Amazon and Sony.
The Competition
Everybody seems to have made it their personal mission to better the Apple iPad 2, and they have come up with their own systems to take a bite from the iPad’s market share. Sony, for example, is taking a look at it from an entertainment viewpoint. Archos has additionally made a step in the direction of entertainment, with its ninth generation offering that features high definition video and supporting a few video and audio formats. Many a tablet PC review has pointed out that Sony’s edge comes from its content; it has its hands on mobile computer console games, music, and pictures, so giving its users easy access to that should lure the consumers.
Amazon, on the other hand, looks at it from another angle. The e-commerce giant is interested in selling its computers at a total loss “around the vicinity of 200 USD, several times less expensive than the iPad 2. With Amazon’s extensive range of content, it also should be able to provide the same access to digital content as Sony, with further content in e-books and ecommerce.
The Hardware
Sony’s tablets come in two models, the Tablet S (available now) and the Tablet P (slated for a fall release). The Tablet S will approximately be the same size as an iPad, while the Tablet P will be featuring a dual screen that opens up like a book and will likely be made more transportable by its capability to fold. Sony intends to be number one in the Android-based tablet market by next year. It’s a bit tough to make a tablet PC comparison at the moment as we haven’t begun to see the Tablet P, but we’ll see it soon enough.
Amazon’s super affordable tablet will run on a custom Android 3.2 O. S and will likely be smaller than an iPad.
Well, as far as the Android-based tablet Personal computer market is concerned , shoppers have a lot to look forward to. Competition will continue to be stiff, and tablet makers continue their arms race to make the best tablet P.C in the market. If you can not wait to get your hands on these babies, then perhaps a tablet PC review or 2 will tide you over until they hit the stores.
