Microsoft Surface Pro Review
Microsoft is now a PC hardware vendor, and its first product is the Surface Pro. This tiny 10.6-inch hybrid is sold individually as a tablet but can be used with a detachable keyboard for the full PC experience. It’s a unique design, but it leaves us wondering what’s the point?
Amazon Kindle Fire HD 8.9 Review
The Kindle Fire HD 8.9 is a good tablet for people deeply invested in Amazon's products and services, just like the 7-inch model. But even though the $300 price tag is low, that doesn't excuse the device's performance issues and uninspiring design.
Dell XPS 10 Review
Dell's XPS 10 Tablet is a Windows RT mobile device that can evolve into a laptop, thanks to its keyboard dock. Dressed to the nines in a coat of black soft-touch paint, is the XPS 10 ready for work?
Kobo Arc Review
The Kobo Arc's paired down hardware keeps costs low, and its well-designed Android skin makes interacting with it fun. Yet unlike the Amazon and Barnes & Noble's tablets, owners aren't limited to one store for e-books, apps, or media.
Asus VivoTab Smart Review
You'll be able to do more with the Asus VivoTab Smart than with an iPad since it runs full Windows 8, but not speedily and not without some frustrations with the interface.
Dell Latitude 10 Review
The Dell Latitude 10 is a capable Windows 8 tablet that's hindered by slow internal components and a design that isn't in balance.
Samsung ATIV Smart PC 700T Review
Samsung's ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T carries a significant price tag and justifies it with good performance, sturdy build, long battery life, and a nice stylus. It raises the bar for Windows 8 tablets, but it's not as if that bar was too high to start.
Barnes & Noble Nook HD+ Review
The Nook HD+ is for people who want a streamlined, easy-to-use tablet that has the content they want - apps and videos and games - and who want the best platform for digital magazines and books and comics.
Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Review
Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Review | Samsung's eight-inch Android tablet reclaims the category it helped define from Apple's reigning iPad mini.
HP ElitePad 900 Review
The HP ElitePad 900 attempts to be all things to all people. Predictably, that effort comes up short, but the company has still managed to a land one-two combo of portability and quality few Windows tablets can match.
Razer Edge Pro Review
Razer’s Edge is the world’s first gaming tablet. Through black magic and dark pacts, the company has managed to stick an Intel Core processor and Nvidia graphics chip into a tablet barely larger than the Surface Pro. Does the impressive hardware lead to an awesome gaming experience, or is the Edge just an expensive novelty?
Sony Xperia Tablet Z Review
Sony has had a rough go in the tablet market so far, but hopes to turn its fortunes around with the Xperia Tablet Z, one of the thinnest and lightest tablets we’ve ever used.
HP Slate 7 Review
For $170 you could buy the HP Slate 7, but it has drawbacks. You could spend $30 more and get a tablet that better balances cost and value.
Smart Devices SmartQ U7 Review
We review the SmartDevice SmartQ U7, the first tablet we’ve ever used with a built-in projector. But can a projector make up for a steep price tag?
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (8-inch) review
Though the Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 is more expensive than other small Android tablets, it more than justifies its higher price with a beautiful display, great design, and wealth of features.

Toshiba Excite Write review
We review the Excite Write, Toshiba’s $600 attempt to compete with Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8.0. Is it the new best tablet for writing?
Asus Memo Pad HD 7 review
We review the Memo Pad HD 7, Asus’s best stab at a truly affordable tablet, and we like what we see. The HD 7 competes well with the Nexus 7 and other budget tablets.
Lenovo IdeaTab A1000 review
We review the Lenovo A1000. Does Lenovo have what it takes to compete in the budget tablet market with Google’s Nexus 7 and the Kindle Fire?
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) review
We review Samsung’s Galaxy Note 101.1 2014 Edition and find it much improved inside and out. But its appeal is lessened by its high price and stuttering performance.

We review LG’s first tablet in a couple years. Does the LG G Pad 8.3 have what it takes to compete with Apple’s iPad Mini and Google’s Nexus 7?
Microsoft Surface 2 review

Lenovo tries hard to make a hit tablet with the Yoga Tablet, but misses the mark when it comes to software.
Lenovo Yoga Tablet 10 review
Lenovo tries hard to make a hit tablet with the Yoga Tablet, but misses the mark when it comes to software.
Apple iPad Mini 2 review

Dell Venue 8 review
Dell created a decent, middle of the road Android tablet in the Venue 8 that won't wow shoppers but is good value for the price.
Panasonic Toughpad FZ-G1 review
Heavy and thick, the ToughPad FZ-G1 is the tablet to have when the going gets rough
Nokia Lumia 2520 review
We review the Lumia 2520, Nokia’s first and likely last Windows RT tablet. Find out how it stacks up against other tablets and the Surface 2.
Dell Venue 8 Pro Review
We review Dell’s 8-inch Intel-powered Windows 8.1 tablet. It has a nice screen and feels solid. But you’ll have to pay extra for pen input, and Windows still has a few problems on the tablet front.
Microsoft Surface Pro 3 review
We review Microsoft’s newest PC and tablet hybrid and bring you a detailed review laying out eight major positives and eight major negatives of combining these two popular devices.
Lenovo A8 review
Can a $180 8-inch tablet compete with Google's Nexus 7? We review the Lenovo A8 to find out.
Lenovo A10 review
We review Lenovo’s budget-friendly 10-inch tablet. It performs well and has good speakers, but the low-res IPS screen looks fuzzy.
Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet review
We review Xperia Z2 Tablet, Sony’s newest Android tablet. How does it stakc up to the competition, and to the iPad Air? Find out here.
Lenovo ThinkPad 10 review
The Lenovo ThinkPad 10 small, expensive and not particularly quick, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth consideration. In fact, this may be the perfect device for those few who need an extremely portable Windows tablet.
