Toshiba hasn't exactly been keeping its Excite line of Android tablets a secret; we've been hearing about the Excite 10 for months, caught a look at a 7.7-inch model from the MWC, and learned of a gigantic 13.3-inch design. Today Toshiba goes official with all three models, announcing specs and pricing for the Excite 7.7, Excite 10, and Excite 13.3 Ice Cream Sandwich tablets. This Excite 10 is a different beast from the hardware Toshiba announced for the US at the Excite 10 LE; unlike the LE with its TI chip, all three Excites we're talking about today run quad-core Tegra 3 components. ...

Toshiba's been coming to our attention most often lately in its role as a tablet manufacturer, with news of the AT200 heading to new markets under new names, and word of a quad-core 7.7-inch design. Sure, everyone's got a quad-core tablet to show-off nowadays, but we've also seen some really interesting prototypes from Toshiba, like a giant 13.3-inch model. Today, we learn of yet another Toshiba tablet, the 7-inch LT170. Unfortunately, the LT170 isn't the most impressive Toshiba model we've heard of, with neither hardware specs nor a price that are really attractive. With a 1GHz processor, ...

When we recently looked into the state of tablet sizes, we noted how, despite a few outliers, we've been dealing with an upper cut-off at just over 10 inches. Is that a hard limit, though, or might there be a market out there for consumer-targeted tablets that are even larger still? That's one question Toshiba's been asking itself lately, as it put together a prototype of a tablet with a massive 13.3-inch screen. For now, this is just a non-working prototype, and Toshiba is using it to gauge reactions and see if there just might be demand for devices this size. In the event it's ever ...

Last year, we learned about Toshiba's ten-inch AT200 tablet, a dual-core OMAP4-based model Toshiba more recently announced will be coming to the US as the Excite X10. For the MWC, it looks like the manufacturer has been trying to simultaneously shrink-down the size of the X10 while outfitting it with some more powerful hardware. We don't yet have a name for what it ultimately came up with, an Ice Cream Sandwich-running 7.7-inch Tegra 3 tablet. By keeping the same 1280x800 resolution as the X10, this smaller tablet will benefit from increased pixel density, making the display appear ...

We've seen a slimmed-down Toshiba Android tablet around Christmas and it turned out to be the Toshiba AT200, coming to the U.S. as the Toshiba Excite X10 in mid-Q1 2012. If you live in the U.K., you can now pick up the AT200 for £399 (around $630); the price refers to the 16GB WiFi model but the 32GB WiFi goes for £449 (roughly $715). It is advertised to be the world's thinnest tablet at 7.7mm (at least until we see some more tablets at MWC) and it packs a 1.2GHz TI OMAP 4430 processor, 1GB of RAM, 10.1-inch display with 1280x800 resolution and runs Android 3.2 Honeycomb.

The slimmed-down ten-inch tablet from Toshiba which we've seen around Christmas time turned out to be the final design for the Toshiba AT200. The manufacturer just announced that it will arrive to the U.S. as the Excite X10, running Honeycomb but being Ice Cream Sandwich-ready. The specs, as we've already seen, are a step forward from the Thrive. Packing a 1.2GHz TI OMAP4430 processor, the Excite X10 will operate with the help of a full gigabyte of RAM, and display images on the 10.1-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. There's a combo of a five-megapixel main and ...

The age of 720p smartphone displays is just beginning, with phones like the Galaxy Nexus on the way that will squeeze a high-definition picture down to a portable size. None of us expect the race for higher-and-higher resolutions and denser-and-denser pixel structures to stop now, but where exactly is it heading? Toshiba just announced a new display it's engineered for portable devices that looks like it could set the bar pretty darn high. This particular component is a smidge too large for a typical smartphone screen, measuring in at 6.1 inches, which lands it in that buffer zone between ...

You must have read that the Fujitsu-Toshiba IS12T will be allegedly launched in August as the first ever handset to officially run Windows Phone 7 Mango. According to some new reports, Mango might come earlier than you thought! Microsoft, operator KDDI and Fujitsu-Toshiba are reportedly preparing for a July 27 event where the three companies will allegedly be announcing the IS12T Windows Phone. The carrier reportedly even sent out press invitations to the media and journalists for the event where everyone believes the first ever official Windows Phone running Mango will be announced. As ...
