Reviews for the Toshiba AT200
Thin, Thinner, AT200. "Ultra thin and ultra stylish" - Toshiba hasn't got that wrong. At only 7.7 mm the device really is thin. Whether it's everyone's cup of tea or even 'ultra stylish' depends on the user. Just like in life, it's not just what's on the outside that counts, but also what's on the inside!!

Toshiba has done a good job with the AT200. The tablet looks fantastic with is sleek metal case and thin and light design. We enjoyed good battery life and connectivity but the device was a let-down in key areas. While performance was good on the whole, poor web browsing was a big disappointment and Honeycomb is simply out-of-date.

The bottom line, however, is that it isn’t quite as good as its closest competition. We’d rather pay a little more and get a Motorola Xoom 2, which has a better screen, superior build quality, a water-resistant coating and an IR remote control emitter; or save some pennies and get a Sony Tablet S, whose price has recently fallen to £299.

Toshiba’s AT200 tablet is a much better device than the earlier Toshiba AT100 and an excellent example of a portable and well-built Android machine. Both its 7.7mm slimness and 520g weight are excellent reasons to recommend this tablet but in truth we don’t think it does enough to outshine the power of the Transformer Prime or the quality of the iPad. The AT200 is a great tablet, it’s functional, durable and very practical – it’s just not quite as desirable as some of the other options available.

At £399 for the 16GB version the AT200 isn’t great value when for an extra £100 you can have the 32GB Asus Transformer Prime with a keyboard dock and performance that simply blows the Toshiba out of the water. If you can live with the extra girth and weight a 32GB Motorola Xoom can be picked up for £250, also from Carphone Warehouse. In short, a nice machine but one launched half a year too late and costing £100 too much.

Toshiba has taken another stab at the tablet market with the AT200, the follow-up device to the AT100.

The Toshiba AT200 is the thinnest tablet of its kind and is among the lightest, and as such its a really nice device. It also packs in plenty of connectivity and a speedy dual core processor. In other words it has all the makings of a top choice Android tablet. However, with the margins by which it can claim to be the slimmest being so slight and with it lacking any truly compelling extra features, its appeal is likely to come down to how much it costs and when it's available.

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

71.71%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
