Released February, 2012
Rated 70% by by c|net (Mar, 2012)Priced at $530 with 16GB of storage, or $600 for 32GB, Toshiba evidently feels that its tablet's iPad-besting thickness and weight deserve a slightly higher price than the competition.
Rated 40% by by Philip-Arthur (Sep, 2012)The 8 megapixel rear camera is a decent performer, but don't expect photos and videos to be as crisp as ones from a DSLR or a point and shoot.
Conclusion Which is better for you?
Features Key features of the Toshiba Excite 10 LE compared to the Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300
“10.1
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Rated 41% by by The Verge (Mar, 2012)It's bright and accurate, viewing angles are excellent, with virtually no discoloration even far off-axis, and while you can definitely make out individual pixels and see some jaggies on small text, it's not enough to be a huge problem unless you're really looking for it.
10.1”
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Rated 100% by by Slim (May, 2012)The specs of the machine are the best around right now, the quad core is bullet fast.
screen size
10.1"
10.1"
Excite 10 LE by The Verge (Mar, 2012)At 7.7mm, it really is impressively thin, slimmer than any tablet we've seen regardless of screen size.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by Sathish (Aug, 2012)Coming back to the Asus, What makes it a really good tablet.... It has a really good screen too, I feel it's more than enough for a display of this size.
screen resolution
Excite 10 LE by c|net (Mar, 2012)For a device that sells on the strength of its premium design, it's a detail that should have been taken care of.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by Andrew-Vosper (Sep, 2012)It's not a super high resolution display, so the individual pixels are pretty good sized, and this was pretty noticeable.
memory
| 0 GB | 1 GB | 1 GB |
camera resolution
| 0 MP | 2 MP | 2 MP |
Excite 10 LE by c|net (Mar, 2012)Neither of them is particularly great, and several people we handed the tablet to mistook the front camera (circled in chrome) for a home button.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by Keith-D.-Sniadach (May, 2012)The front camera has less pixels and isn't as great, but is perfect for video calls and gets the job done.
processor
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by AstroBob--AstroBobI have used Ipads and frankly the addition of the keyboard, quad core and ease of memory expansion puts the ASUS ahead.
Performance Real world tests of Toshiba Excite 10 LE vs Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF300
cpu speed
Excite 10 LE by The Verge (Mar, 2012)The Excite is geared toward a more average tablet buyer, and while its spec list isn't exactly standard-setting, it's solid: a TI OMAP 4430 processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 1280 x 800, 10.1-inch display.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by R.-Kurthakoti (May, 2012)The tablet has very good clarity and excellent speed thanks to the Tegra 3 processor.
battery life
8.5 hour
10 hour
Excite 10 LE by The Verge (Mar, 2012)In practice, largely because frequent crashes are a fact of life with the Excite, I got more like four hours of battery on a charge.
Eee Pad Transformer TF300 by T.-J.-Power--PowerCPA (Jun, 2012)It charges fast and the battery life is more than good enough.
