Tablet wars: the New iPad vs Asus Transformer Prime
Comparing the new iPad and the ASUS Transformer Prime (TL201) is a bit like watching two mighty gladiators in full combat.
Apple definitely gets the honours for taking tablets mainstream with the first iPad. When it came out, I worked on an HP TC1100, which is a smashing tablet which becomes a laptop computer with a keyboard and stylus, but back then no one was really interested. It's a fabulous machine which still works beautifully after six or seven years.
Although the ... -
Targus Truss case for BlackBerry PlayBook [Review]
This review can go one of two ways. Super short, punchy and insightful or long and rambling. I'm going for the former.
Targus' Truss case is a beautifully realised accessory. It's jam-packed with oodles of luxury, stinks of class and turns the already gorgeous PlayBook into a tome of mighty power. Let me explain.
The case is roughly US$40 depending on where you find it. If you find it laying in the road, it's free. If it's hanging in a fancy tech ... -
Can the Vodafone SmartTab 7-inch beat its brethren? [Review]
Steve Jobs was never all that big on seven inch tablets calling them "dead on arrival". Here at Gearburn, we're not so sure. We like the ultra-cheap Netsurfer Touch and we really like the BlackBerry PlayBook now that it's rocking OS 2.0. So, can Vodafone's seven inch offering match up to these two beauties?
One thing is for certain -- it won't have as difficult-a-task of pleasing us as its 10-inch sibling. After all, that was starting to get into ... -
Netsurfer Touch review [Video]
The Netsurfer Touch. They call it the people's tablet, but is it the tablet that the people want, or need? Gearburn says "yes" so have a gander at our video to see what we think of this wallet-friendly, Android 2.3 tablet. It's a great tablet, and one of the first to come out of South Africa. There's plenty to love, but also a few niggling issues which really let down the overall package. Don't let that stop you from buying one ... -

RIM changes PlayBook app sideloading story
Sideloading apps? Not on our PlayBook, said RIM. The “chaotic cesspool” of the Android Market and piracy concerns caused Alec Saunders, Developer Relations VP to send out this tweet: @Spy520e we're removing sideloading for consumers.Pretty sure we've got a solution for devs. — Alec Saunders (@asaunders) April 4, 2012 RIM would have none of it. The struggling company sent a message which counteracts Saunders' message: We are looking at different options including removal or evolution of our current side loading functionality. In the event ... -
The new iPad — more of the same, twice as tasty [Review]
With little other than a display revamp, the new iPad is a little brighter, crisper and heavier. But is it equally as loveable?
Retina Display is king
If you're an existing owner of iPad or iPad 2, you'll certainly notice the difference between versions. Text and images are both clearer thanks to the 2048x1536 Retina Display which is four times the number of pixels than previous iPad models. Other hardware upgrades includes the back camera which has been bumped to 5-megapixal ... -
New iPad Wi-Fi issue: Apple takes action
Your iPad 3 overheating? It’s become a “very real problem” according to several reports and as the complaints mount up, it seems that the overheating issue is directly hampering Wi-Fi connectivity. This site has unearthed a confidential AppleCare document for “Apple internal use only” and, as everyone knows, the more confidential a document is, the more chances there are of it being spread across the web like a thick layer of jelly. Apple’s official discussion forum is crammed with comments regarding the ... -
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 devices pushed back, Android 4.0 blamed
Whoa there doggie. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 series, which was penciled in for March UK release, has been pushed back to the end of April. Why? Apparently Samsung needs to spend further time refining the TouchWiz UI for Android 4.0. When Android 4.0 plays nice with TouchWiz, the tablets will launch in the UK. The rest of the world will follow suit after the Brits have had their fill with these snazzy new devices. Tab's expected to launch include the ... -
HCL launches two great new budget tablets, starts at US$160
Budget tablets are a dime a dozen these days, but it's interesting to watch companies push them into new market segments. With the rise of the iPad it seems that tablets will soon be commonplace in the classroom. HCL agrees. The Indian company announced two new low cost tablets –- the HCL ME U1 and the HCL MyEdu Tab. While the MyEdu Tab is aimed squarely at India's classrooms, the ME U1 displays a good low-end price and feature mix, ...
