It is a matter
of discussion that how big or how small a tablet should be, in other words what
exactly the right size for tablet is. All the way from 7 inches to 10.5 inches
there are different sizes of tablets in the market. And now, the Japanese tech conglomerateToshiba has raided the market with a 13.3 inch monster named Toshiba Excite 13.
The users will
eventually decide whether the idea of the
bigger the better goes true in the case of Toshiba Excite 13 or not. The
device is marketed as a $650 device that is, “ideally suited for the home use”.
Your first
glimpse of the tablet might tell you that Toshiba has taken a cue from
Samsung’s Galaxy Note and gone for the bigger size of the handset.
In spite of the
mammoth size of the body the handset weighs just 2.2 pounds, though that weight
is a little too much for long time usage. The 13.3 inch LED backlit display has
a 1600x900 pixel resolution, which is a great thing for such a humongous screensize. Just above the screen a 2MP camera sits pretty and on the back side of
the body a 5MP camera with LED flash adds glitter to glory.
The device comes
with a 32 GB onboard memory. And for those who believe in mega storage options
there is a microSD card slot as well to enhance the already huge storage
capacity. In the processor segment the device has Nvidia Tegra 3, which happens to be a quad
core one the processor is well complimented by a 1GB RAM.
If we turn our
heed towards the OS of the handset it has got the latest and the best Android
till date – the IceCream Sandwich 4.0.
The Verdict
The high point
of the device is, without doubt, its superfast quad core processor and the ICS
OS. And the low point (somewhat low) is the mammoth size of the body, which at
times will become too much to handle. But all in all it is a good device, no
doubt. For me, Toshiba Excite 13 is a worthwhile thing.
