Acer joins the 10 inch tablet crowd with its A500 that's powered by a Tegra 2 chipset while running on Android Honeycomb. In theory it's a good device, but does reality care to differ?
PROS
Solid build, speedy Tegra 2 chipset, USB port a nice addition
CONS
A bit heavy, screen flashes sometimes on when locked, not many movie files supported
VERDICT
The Acer Iconia Tab A500 is a solidly built tablet that looks good and performs well thanks to its Tegra 2 processor. A USB port on the side makes for a nice addition.
