I’ve had the Iconia A510 a few weeks now and I’ve used it pretty extensively. Mainly because I took it on holiday with me at the end of November. Now it’s time to bring you the full review. Nut first the good and bad points of the...

The 10″ Android tablet market just got dumped on its head recently. As with the other current Nexus devices Google are offering them direct to customers rather cheaply. This move makes selling a tablet difficult as the other OEMs have to cut...

The Tegra 3 platform that Acer's latest Android tablet is based on is stellar -- not only because of its blazing-fast performance, but also because of its battery life. The Iconia Tab A510, with its 32GB storage and Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)...

The Acer Iconia Tab A510 Olympic Edition won't be winning any Gold medals in our tablets chart. Its battery life is strong, and up there with the iPad, but once the games have finished there's little else here for us to recommend it over other...

The Acer Iconia Tab A510 isn't the best-built tablet currently available, nor is it the slimmest or the most attractive. Its screen can be bettered, and the main camera isn't great. On the plus side, the quad-core processor speeds things along,...

The Acer Iconia Tab A510 has excellent battery life, reasonable ergonomics and offers solid performance with only some minor software hiccups. This is a good tablet on the whole but simply being "good" isn't good enough at this price point. The...
