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!
Asus eee pad ako medyo awkward lang yung “eee” Sana Asus transformer nalang.
Can I vote for something I already have? Asus Transformer is really awesome. :)
notice nyo puro asus transformer? ako rin, syempre.
I’d go for the Asus transformer and Samsung Galaxy Tab. Quality and feature – wise. great performance too
asus eee pad nalang. mas mura at maganda naman tatak at quality.
I’d pick the Asus Transformer hands down.
BTW,Meron ng XOOM sa SM North, cant remember the store.. basta meron dun. HAHA
thanks dahil sinabi mo bibili nako…….=)
Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 for portability. =)
Asus Eee Pad Transformer cyempre! 16 hours battery life!!!
Eee Pad Transformer! dock. period.
I like the Asus Transformer and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, But both are not yet available in the country.
And there are reports that iPad3 will be released soon (4th Quarter of this year).
If Ipad3 will be released just a few months after Asus transformer or Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is released in the country, I’ll go for Ipad3. Ipads are normally released simultaneously in the USA and the Philippines
I don’t think iPad 3 will be released anytime this year. They just released the iPad2 last April, 3rd Gen of the Apple tablet will probably be released either March or April next year. Only the iOS 5 will be released later this year, most likely together with the iPhone 5.
Asus EEEPad Transformer!! Win Win!! when I feel like blogging I can use the mobile dock, then when i fell like using apps and being on the go..then have it as a tablet..:D
:) Transformer! Best Tablet Ever!
Asus EEE pad Transformer and dock. I want all day (and the next day) computing. :)
Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9″ for the size :)
Im also waiting for samsung galaxy tab 10.1 to come.. sino may idea kung kailan kaya dadating ito sa atin??
i am comfortable with Dell’s 5incher tablet if only they have local support, e.g., post sale, value added, and accessory support.
Watch out for the ASUS EEE MEMO PAD due last quarter of 2011. With all the features it is supposed to offer (7-inch screen, honeycomb OS, phone function, 5MP rear camera, stylus, bluetooth headset) it is definitely worth waiting for!
Given a chance I’ll buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab.
I want a tablet but I want it to be android so it is similar with my small 3.2 screen android phone. And I want it with a big screen because if I get a one with a small screen like 7 inches then there is redundancy of function with my phone. I want it to function more like a netbook replacement than a celfon replacement. So it should be the biggest at 10 inch screen.
A small 3.2 inch android smartphone complements a 10.1 inch android tablet. But I want a fully functional tablet that works just like a windows laptop with full USB functionality, so I can connect keyboard, mouse, gamepad, USB 3G/HSPA+/wimax dongles, so I can connect external hard drives, flash drives and so on.
And that is none other than ACER ICONIA!
Acer Iconia Tab A500 is the Sherman tank of tablets. It is fat and heavy. The one thing nice about this tablet is its rear camera. It can handle speed and is not choppy unlike that of the Transformer.
exactly. When I buy a tablet, it should do a lot of things that my mobile phone can’t do. It should be big, and it should have full usb, and lotsa storage, something closer to a full-sized computer. I already have a smartphone, why get something without external USB ports like the asus transformer or galaxy tab?
I used to like the Transformer, too when it was still being promoted. But when I learned that the usb port is not part of the main unit itself but on the keyboard it turned me off. I think the Transformer is overly designed. They just want to name it like that probably with the movie in mind. Well, I don’t like it. I already have a laptop. I don’t need to be lugging an extra keyboard with me. That is not cool.
