It's hard to think of a single way in which the Iconia A1-810 could be called outstanding. The screen is fine, performance adequate and battery life perfectly acceptable. It looks and feels like a solid budget tablet, and you won't convince anyone that...

Even though the Acer Iconia A1-810 connects via Wi-Fi only - for 3G connectivity look at the A1-811 - it delivers plenty for its £175 price tag. It's that price point that really works its magic, as this tablet is much like an Android-version of...

The budget Android tablet market is a brilliant arms race. The Acer Iconia A1 is right in the mix as one of the best tablets in terms of value for money. If you're looking for something to surf the web, use social networks and watch videos on the A1 merits consideration. The fact that it has a microSD card slot makes it a really attractive tablet for £149.

The Acer Iconia A1 has a bunch of minor problems. Its entry-level IPS screen is ageing badly, it doesn’t have as much power on tap as its ‘quad-core’ processor may suggest and it’s a bit heavy.

I'm quite taken with the Iconia A1. Not least because all of the features above come at a very competitive price; just £140 for the 8GB, WiFi only model. It's not the cheapest tablet out there, in fact it's not even the cheapest tablet that Acer make,...
