  • Cool stylus facilities such as drawing on photos
  • Sense interface is really easy to use for navigation
  • Decent social and web apps
  • The HTC Flyer looks great. It's compact
  • Lightweight and easy to take on the road with you. It's slightly thicker than an Apple iPad 2
  • But it's more comfortable to hold in one hand
  • And we prefer it for longer periods of use. The 7-inch screen is one of this tablet's best features
  • Proving just about large enough to watch movies on or browse your favourite websites. At 1024 x 600 pixels
  • It's al

The editors didn't like

  • NonHTC apps don't suit the big screen
  • Terrible battery life compared to competitors
  • Doesn't run the latest version of Android
  • Too expensive
  • Not Android 3.0
  • Poor battery life
  • Limited connectivity
  • Lacks Honeycomb features
  • Pen can be tricky to use and costs extra
  • High price
  • Expensive
  • Not significantly better than its rivals
  • Lack of phone
  • Slightly creaky
  • No Android 3.0 skills
  • No Honeycomb
  • Not dual core
  • No space for the pen on the actual device
  • Email is not optimised for tablets
  • May be a wait for a Honeycomb update
  • Mediocre design reminiscent of smartphones
  • Unfortunately
  • The HTC Flyer stumbles when it comes to video playback – not because of any hardware issues
  • But because of a lack of format support. Other manufacturers – such as Samsung – offer support for all the major video codecs
  • So it's a shame that HTC hasn't followed suit.
  • Uses Android 2.3
  • Relatively expensive
  • Stuck using Android 2.3
  • App support limited
  • Stylus doesn't dock inside tablet
  • Not Android 3.0 Honeycomb
  • Runs Android 2.3 rather than 3.0
  • May be too small for some users
  • No compelling features

  • Nice aluminium unibody, attractive user interface and widgets, bundled case (some markets), cool pen functionality
  • Poor camera, fragile/fiddly rear cover, sluggish at times, nowhere to dock stylus without case

  • Abstract:  As an ink blogger , the feature I've been most enthusiastic about testing on the HTC Flyer is ink. The Flyer is designed for pen input in a way unlike other pen tablets before it. What I've found is the experience breaks out into quantity vs. quality. It'...

  • At $69 direct, the battery life, simple installation and very good call quality make this a strong product and I can recommend it without hesitation. Amazon has the device for just $41, which makes it an even better value.ProsLong battery lifeSimple to us...

  • There are dozens of tablets for you to choose from; why would you choose one running a custom build of Android 2, with what amounts to a prototype pen interface? There’s no reason to. But even as I disparage this device, I feel real excitement for its...

  • Solid industrial design, Mesmerizing and high quality display, Latest version of Sense UI, Unique offering with HTC Scribe technology,
  • Not so great with taking photos & videos, Somewhat pricey
  • The HTC Flyer’s user interface does a good job of making Android more appealing to less techy users. But non-HTC apps in the Android Market can provide a rude reminder that most apps available for the Flyer were designed with phones, rather than a tab...

  • The HTC Flyer is a superb machine that jams in a lot of services in a small package. It's certainly one of the most innovative with its Magic Pen and OnLive gaming. It's priced at a bit of a premium compared to other tablets in its class which is justif...

  • Solid design and build, Great keyboard, Excellent notes app when used with Ntrig pen
  • Pen not bundled in US, Flyer only runs smartphone apps at launch, Can?t navigate device with pen
  • If you want an Android tablet for note taking and general productivity, the Flyer is your best option, provided you pick up the pen. If you just want a seven-inch tablet, it slightly bests the Samsung Galaxy Tab in overall performance, design and specs. ...

  • Optional digital pen, Quick boot time, Excellent screen quality, Great-sounding speakers
  • Expensive, Outdated OS, Single-core processor, Poor camera quality
  • The Flyer is a capable tablet, but its single-core processor and outdated OS makes it feel obsolete. ...

  • On a whole we will say that the HTC Flyer is a nicely built little tablet with a lot of attention given to the details. But in comparison to Apple’s immensely successful iPad 2, the HTC Flyer is comparatively thick and the screen of this tablet is hal...
