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 100% by by LuisDM (Oct, 2012)It is fast, the display resolution is great to read PDFs and magazines, and the colors are bright.
Conclusion Which is better for you?
Features Key features of the Toshiba Excite 10 LE compared to the Asus Transformer Infinity
“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 80% by by PER (Jan, 2013)The one thing that I like from the iPad over the Transformer is that the iPad seems to have a more consistent, smooth feel.
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.
Transformer Infinity by Patty-P (Nov, 2012)Ipad can't compete with this screen for brightness and as far as the resolution, unless you are looking at them side by side under perfect conditions it's almost impossible to tell the difference.
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.
Transformer Infinity by Patty-P (Nov, 2012)Personally, it is way more important to me to be able to see the screen under bright conditions and loose a marginal fraction of resolution than to not even be able to see the screen at all outside.
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.
Transformer Infinity by Torrence (Nov, 2012)The camera is pretty decent and it can take decent quality photos.
processor
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.
Performance Real world tests of Toshiba Excite 10 LE vs Asus Transformer Infinity
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.
Transformer Infinity by Patty-P (Nov, 2012)I spent hours pouring over reviews and videos trying to find "The" machine.
