Toshiba Thrive 10.1-Inch 16 GB Android Tablet AT105-T1016







I have had 16GB happy for 3 days now. It thrives in my opinion the best tablet available. What distinguishes it from other tablets are: removable battery, Full size HDMI port, a large USB 2.0 port and a mini-USB port. All aboard without docking or adapters needed. You can take your SD card directly from the camera and connect it to thrive (Handles up to 128 GB SDXC what?). Toshiba was smart enough to include a file manager that makes it super easy to move data or media between the tablet and the SD card or an external hard drive, etc. Running Honeycomb 3.1 out of the box too. WiFi is the best I've seen, better than any other device in my house and I have quite a bit. Bind my Android without problems. The sound is the best I've heard in tablet.Toshiba worked with SRS and it shows. (A little side note, the default volume is low. Go into the settings and adjust instantly) screen is better than Xoom, but not quite as good as the Samsung (I think) and it seems to get better with higher quality and higher resolution content. Looks phenomenal when you look at pictures from my Canon Digital with an L lens. Colour reproduction is excellent, not just over-saturated as some other pills. The screen response is great. Drove a multi-touch test, and it recognizes four separate points of contact simultaneously. 2MP front of the camera and 5 MP camera is back two very good with good lighting. Overall, this tablet interoperabilty more than anything else on the market. It loads really fast, 90% in 90 minutes. Very, very happy with my decision to go with it thrives. I had thought about Asus but with terrible build quality issues, and the light bleed I decided against it. I'm so glad I waited because Toshiba got it right, right out of the box! This thing is solid! No creaking or flex. No loose bezel. Zero light bleed. One tablet is the sum of its parts, and in the words of Charlie Sheen, # win!

Update: 14 hours a day on battery power with a fairly heavy surf and a little music and video. The battery gave me 6-7 hours the first few charges. Wow, I do not think it would improve this much! Really happy they are happy!
