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

But because of a lack of format support. Other manufacturers – such as Samsung – offer support for all the major video codecs

Expensive, not significantly better than its rivals, lack of phone
HTC's Flyer is a good tablet overall. Aside from the pen functionality it has little to offer over Samsung's older Galaxy Tab, though, and with its much higher price and lack of phone functionality, we wonder how well it will sell...
