I bought a 7” Acer Iconia A100 as an inexpensive hold-me-over device while I waited for the coming wave of new, Ice Cream Sandwich powered 10” Android tablets that would be introduced in 2012. The problem for me? I fell in love with the size. Now, instead of looking out for a new 10” tablet [...]
Way back in November we got a glimpse of Acer’s upcoming tablet User Agent profiles. Fast forward to January and those same tablets are nearing release.

I'm a sucker for daily deals sites, and had to pass this one along. A 32GB Acer Iconia A500 (one of our top picks of last year) for just under 0 bucks is nothing to sneeze at. We know the next generations of tablets and quad-core is coming soon, but the A500 is still a [...]

The Consumer Electronics Show isn’t an Android specific event, but Android has been one of the stars of the show of late. Last year there was a load of Android product announcements, and sadly quite a few of those products flopped (looking at you Dell) before this CES even began. Still, it was a great [...]
Ice Cream Sandwich update available in mid-February Acer's looking to make a dent in the Android tablet market, having started with the 10-inch Iconia A500 and then with the 7-inch A100.

And here we go with another Tegra 3 tablet, and this seems to be quite interesting too: i’m talking about the Acer Iconia Tab A700. Oh, are you asking why is it so interesting if there is the Transformer Prime which is also Tegra 3? Well, it’s the first tablet with such a screen resolution: [...]

While the Asus Transformer Prime is official, Lenovo recently got some news time with their apparent Tegra 3 tablet that is coming. Now HTC and Acer are joining [...]
Asus may be the first one to start the quad-core tablet revolution, but they won’t be the only ones in the game. HTC, Lenovo and Acer are also gearing up with Tegra 3 tablets that should be available in the next few months. I’m not entirely sure why Nvidia had to delay the Tegra 3 [...]
We were just slipped this link to PocketDroid that shows a blurry photo of a supposed Acer Iconia Tab A200. As you know, we have the A500 and the A100, but this would be the first time hearing of this one. At first glance it looks close to a 10 inch device with a front-facing [...]

With any OS that is run by more than one company, you will get a hint of commoditization. The more manufacturers are out there and the more models they make. Google clearly wanted to have as many manufacturers as possible using it, so they would’ve gotten that part of the commoditization anyway. But at least [...]
We haven’t seen much from Acer or the Liquid Mini lately but they are planning their next Ferrari phone and we have the details.

According to Acer’s Malaysian Facebook page, Acer Iconia Tab A500 owners will receive an Android 3.2 OTA update on August 25th due to a delay from Google regarding “poicy changes”.

We have just received word that the Acer Iconia Tab A500 is now getting the update to Android 3.1 Honeycomb. It should be rolling out to devices in the U.S. starting today so I’d be hitting that update button if I owned one. Back in June we heard it was coming soon and 3.1 has [...]

It is not going well for Acer at the moment. In a meeting to shareholders recently, Acer chairmen J T Wang said that the company would be reducing its projection of tablet sales by 60%. A big slash to be sure. To make matter worse Acer has also missed its last three quarterly forecasts and [...]

When it comes to software and hardware, I’ve always been under the firm belief that if it can be built — it can also be torn down and that’s exactly what has happened to the Acer Iconia A500 tablet. Out of the box, the bootloader for the Acer Iconia was pretty secure. But thanks to [...]

I didn’t want to laugh when I read that HTC is going to ask for $80 for the Flyer magic pen, I just couldn’t help myself. I saw the video embedded below a few weeks ago and I’ll admit that I thought it was an interesting idea. But $80? We’ve covered the Flyer so I [...]
