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

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

Fans of 7-inch tablets will appreciate the HTC Flyer's screen quality, durable construction, HD video recording, and unique features, such as digital pen compatibility and HTC's Sense UI customization
The Flyer is small, thick, and pricey, and isn't running Google's Android 3.0 tablet OS. Its most unique feature, the Magic Pen, may not come included and is expensive to replace
The HTC Flyer puts a new spin on the 7-inch Android tablet, but its high price and smartphone-style OS are a tough sell next to its bigger, cheaper Honeycomb kin.

The HTC Flyer is a superb-looking tablet with enough processing power to drive its multimedia functions. Its high price tag is more of an issue than its use of the older Android 2.3 OS, given that other aspects of this likable tablet are so advanced. ...

Abstract: The HTC Flyer, with its 2.3 Gingerbread build of Android feels more like an overgrown phone than a tablet, but it offers some innovations I would like to see taken elsewhere, most notably, then pen and the innovative...
Abstract: The interface is a little difficult to use. There is only a 7-inch screen, and to truly make use of the applications, you need to use a stylus called a Magic Pen. The nice thing is that when using the pen, the normal touch...

Abstract: It is probably important to start this off by admitting something; I have yet to be impressed by a 10-inch tablet. The whole idea to this ultraportable slab of mobile-amazing is that it’s supposed to be… well, ultraportable. I should be able to comfor...
If you view tablets like the iPad 2 or Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 as being the target for perfection, something like the Flyer will come as a disappointment. If you're like me however, and view tablets as a line of products still in their infancy then ther...
