Toshiba AT300 is now official in Europe, Tegra 3 and ICS onboard

Known in the States as the Excite 10, Toshiba’s latest 10-inch tablet has finally been made official in Europe. The AT300, as it will be called on the Old Continent, will come with pretty much the same tech specs as the US version, but still doesn’t have an official price tag next to its name. We also don’t know exactly where will the AT300 be made available in Europe and when you should expect it to start selling, but the UK and Italian releases have been confirmed and we are fairly positive that we will be seeing the tablet all …

Toshiba Excite 13 passes through the FCC, on track for June launch

After enjoying rather modest success with its Thrive line of tablets in 2011, Toshiba has decided to mix things up and launch a new trio of very different slates. The Excite 7.7, Excite 10, and Excite 13 were all revealed a while back, and all three are expected to become available by the end of June. The humongous Excite 13 was just spotted at the FCC and can now be finally confirmed for the US market. With a 13.3-inch screen and a rather netbook-like look and “figure”, Toshiba’s future tablet should be made available in three different models. We knew …

Toshiba Excite 7.7 quad-core AMOLED tablet hits the FCC, are you ready to be excited?

Let’s be honest, Toshiba didn’t exactly hit it out of the park with their last batch of Android tablets. This time though, the guys at Toshiba have rethought their whole marketing strategy for this market niche and are bringing to market a fresh new line of “exciting” products. The Excite 7.7, 10 and 13 were all unveiled last week and are set to hit the market in the next couple of months, targetting technology fanatics concerned about specs, raw power, style and cool looks. The first of the trio we suspected to be made available is the 10-incher, as it’s …

All three strictly WiFi Toshiba Excite tablets come with Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processors, 1GB RAM, 5MP rear camera, and 2MP front camera. The Excite 13 …

Toshiba Launches Excite 10 LE in U.S., Says “What iPad?”

Toshiba Launches Excite 10 LE in U.S., Says “What iPad?”

You gotta hand it to Toshiba. Any other company would have chosen to steer clear of the Apple hype-machine, set in overdrive by the upcoming launch of the iPad3. But not Toshiba. The Japanese will launch their razor-thin Excite 10 LE (formerly known as the X10) in the United States, on March 6, the day before Apple’s big iPad event. Either they don’t care about it, or, they do it on purpose, just to mess with Apple. Either way, bravos for Toshiba. The Excite 10 LE is a 10.1-incher that we first saw last year in fall, but, at the …

Now, the Excite series proves the world that Toshiba means serious business. And, this time around, the sleek looks and svelte built were high on the Japanese’ priorities list. Toshiba is set …

Toshiba’s Amazing Unannounced 7.7-inch Tablet

Toshiba’s Amazing Unannounced 7.7-inch Tablet

TheVerge Usually, we tech bloggers strive to get our hands on the latest and greatest gadgets before they are officially announced by the manufacturers. In turn, most gadget-makers do their best to keep their latest products under wraps until they are formally inducted into society. For everyone involved, it’s second nature. Except for Toshiba. Apparently, the Japanese don’t care that Nvidia is using one of their upcoming tablets to show off their Tegra 3 System-on-a-Chip. The slate in question is codenamed AT270, and we first saw it back at CES, when it was in a rough prototype stage. Now, it’s …

Toshiba Excite X10 10.1 Tablet – Hands On [Video]

While at CES 2012 I saw a ton of new Tablets and phones running Android one of my favorite things I saw was the Toshiba  Excite 10.1. The reason I fell in love with it was the design, it feels absolutely perfect to me it’s defiantly the best feeling hardware a tablet has ever had. The straight edge makes the thinness of the device really stand out at only 0.3 inches thick. The Toshiba Excite X10 is powered by TI OMAP 4420 dual core processor clocked at 1.2 Ghz equipped with 1 GB of RAM. The screens resolution is 1280 x 800 …

Toshiba Excite X10: Thinnest Android Tablet at the CES 2012

Toshiba Excite X10: Thinnest Android Tablet at the CES 2012

  It seems like the first day of CES 2012 was dominated by the thinnest everything. While there was the fight between Motorola Droid 4 and Huawei Ascend P1 S for the title of the thinnest Android smartphone, it was the former who claimed the spot. In the Android tablet category however, there was no competition to Tohsiba’s claim as the ‘thinnest and lightest tablet’ on their Excite X10.   True enough, the tablet really does feel light and thin—having a thickness of 0.3 inch and a weight of 1.18 lbs., it truly gives itself a new definition in the …

Toshiba Creates a 498 ppi – 2,560 x 1,600 pixel Display – Take that iPhone “Retina”!

Do you remember 720p smartphone displays? Chances are that the sentence above does not really make sense to you because the first 720p smart phones are just in the process of being released. Only having about a month in the spotlight, these displays are already being kicked to the sideline by Toshiba. Earlier this year, Toshiba promised a 4 inch smartphone that would feature a 367 ppi display. However, they have now upped the ante with a 6.1 inch tablet phone “thingy”. It is unclear whether or not the device will be a phone or a tablet, but we do …

As Gingerbread continues to gain ground in the smart phone arena, the for-tablet iteration of the Android operating system called Honeycomb is making parallel progress in the tablet computer market as well. Vying for the lead are two devices that come from two different entities with very different positions. On the one hand is the Kindle Fire from Amazon and on the other is the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus from Android stalwart Samsung. You wouldn’t know the Kindle Fire is an Android powered tablet from the look of the user interface. There have been some reports that Amazon actually went …
