Arnova 10b G3 review
The Arnova 10b G3 boasts Google's Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) OS right out of the box and offers a reasonably snappy performance. It will let you handle basic tasks like browsing the web and watching high-definition video. But, in all honesty, there are better tablets around for a similar price. The Arnova 10b G3 has a 1GHz processor with 1GB of RAM which keeps it ticking along. It loaded up the browser quickly and we were happy to see apps open up quickly without much trouble. However, there's more than a hint of sluggishness when cruising through the operating system or swiping through homescreens. The Arnova 10b G3 features a 10.1-inch display, with a widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio and a 1,024 x 600 pixel resolution. But unfortunately, touch input is resistive, not capacitive. This means you have to jab it firmly to make a connection and the overall usability really suffers as a result. Arnova does offer a capacitive version of this tablet and we're not sure why that isn't made as standard with the resistive model dropped altogether. The larger problem is that decent tablets are now becoming affordable.
Archos Arnova 10 review
Archos has been plugging away at tablets longer than almost all of its rivals. The Arnova 10 sits towards the bottom of the company's sizeable range, priced at a lowly £150 or thereabouts. It's not designed to compete with high-end models like the iPad 2, but rather to provide a better experience than the flood of cheap devices now appearing on the market from unheard of Chinese brands. The Arnova 10 is based around a large, wide-screen, 10.1-inch display. The tablet is far wider than it is tall -- much more so than most other tablets on the market. As a result, it feels rather top-heavy when you're holding it in portrait orientation. The screen dominates the front of the device, but there's also a small camera peeping out of the bezel. The tablet is fairly slim at 13.5mm, and it's constructed entirely from plastic, with a mock brushed-aluminium section surrounding the screen. Although nowhere near as sturdy as high-end tablets like the iPad 2, the build quality isn't bad. The only physical controls are mounted on the left-hand edge. They include a volume rocker button and a power button that doubles as a lock switch. Beneath these, there's a full-sized USB port for connecting memory keys or hard drives to the tablet, plus a micro-USB port that's used for syncing it with a PC.
