In the last 12 months, we’ve already seen a lot of Android tablets hitting the Philippines. And, a lot more are definitely coming. With so many to choose from, it’s a little daunting to make that decision when buying your first Android tablet. So let’s just put this to a vote.
With the number of Android tablets around, which one is your favorite so far? Let’s limit it to the ones officially sold in the country, shall we?
- Asus Eee Pad Transformer
- Acer Iconia Tab A500
- Archos 70/101
- Dell Streak 5
- Cherry Mobile Superion
- Samsung Galaxy Tab
- Neo Edge OmiPad
- Viewsonic ViewPad 7
- Huawei S7
LG will also announce their own tablet (LG Optimus Pad) as well as Samsung’s 2nd-generation tablets. HTC is yet to launch their HTC Flyer tablet locally too. I doubt Motorola will be officially releasing the Xoom in the Philippines although we’re seeing units being sold in the grey market for Php34k already.
Go hit the comments and tell us which one is your pick!
I think it is a toss between Asus Transformer Tab and Apple Ipad 2
How much is the Archos 101???
Asus EEE Pad FTW! I’ll just wait for it in the market since it will be released as Android 3.1 ON THE BOX!
That’s why I didn’t get interenst when the Iconia got into the market cause they are the 1st Honeycomb but no unit to actually compare. So I guess its a pro / con thingy.
For me better safe than sorry
Mine is Archos 101 because this is the only tablet I know that has plenty of video codecs and extensions that can play almost all types of video format. I would have wanted the iPad 2 but its video codecs is limited to MP4, MOV, and H.264. Same with the overly design Transformer – it has got some missing video codecs as well. Forget the Acer Iconia Tab A500 – that thing plays just one type of video file. I don’t know much about the Galaxy but I remember watching my PSP MP4 movie Hellboy II:The Golden Army in my sister’s Galaxy Tab and it worked just fine. My Archos 101 has no rear cam but I realized that watching movie and browsing the web are more important to me than playing with the rear camera.
hoping more tab users and owners share their views, kudos to Yuga for this post. I’m thinking of buying a tab myself just for the heck of it.
Haven’t decided on one yet but I’m eyeing the HP touchpad with HP’s own WebOS. Looks like a really nifty gadget. Sadly it’ll be months till it comes to our shores. But hey, more time to look around :)
I’m using the acer iconia tab now & using it to post this… Really needs the Honeycomb 3.1 update badly as it might fix some issues…
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7″ Android Gingerbread (2.3.3)
I just realize that the new update Sharing Internet just got fast tried it with Globe and Sun shared gadget still get 1mbps speed Even Apple Product. Haha to bad Apple cant share its 3G Connectivity.
Samsung GalaxyTab (3G)
HTC Flyer has the looks… perfect size… though not the latest honeycomb… but it has a pen and i bet if you lost it replacement would be expensive and o’ yeah same as the tablet.
I was kinda of hoping for Slates.
I still don’t have Samsung Tab P1000 yet… >sigh<
I enjoy the 7″ galaxy tab, but im also still waiting for the eee transformer pad
Got a Samsung Galaxy Tab wifi.
Kids use iPad 1
no polldaddy survey? how are we going to know which one is the best seller?
Flash has been essential to my daily living, so I go for android!
asus or galaxy. but i think the line-ups of archos are cheapest among those who do quality built. nevermind the local OEMs.
Apple ipad all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i use a 7″ GALAXY TAB advantage is it’s also a phone .
blah… ipad2 ftw..
loser apps ng android.. Spell boring..
I just bought them all and blend it in the blender. Yes, they blend because they are mostly made of plastic. Awesome.
Now the faster gingerbread Galaxy tab 7 perfect size for dual phone/tablet .

Archos 101 if your an ebook reader this is the tablet together with the awesome “Aldiko” the partnership is just incredible.
