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

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
The HTC Flyer certainly succeeds where other Android tablets have fallen down, in that it provides a slick, nicely designed user interface. We really love how HTC Watch is implemented and how the Magic Pen/stylus works; we had hours of fun doodling on ...
There’s no question that this is the best 7-inch tablet on the market right now. Comparisons with the iPad and 10-inch slates are inevitable, but are only relevant because both are slightly luxurious product types that people want rather than need. If ...

Small form factor and pen design is excellent for children, The 1.5GHz processor is blazingly fast, even for a singlecore CPU, The pen ($50 addon) functions well and is highly accurate
Software doesn't solve any pentablet expected functions, and is not suitable for professionals, Small size makes writing on the device more of a hassle than it's worth, There is nowhere to keep the stylus on the Flyer, Prices vary greatly between retailer
The Flyer is a solid tablet, but professionals shouldn't confuse it with a serious business tool. I...
