Reviews for the Toshiba Excite Pure
Source: Comp Reviews Archive.org version
Toshiba's Excite Pure is one of the most affordable 10-inch android tablets on the market but it makes a few too many compromises to make it a great value. Toshiba did manage to keep things like a micro HDMI and microSD card slot for better expansion. The problem is that it lacks many features like a rear camera, high resolution display or even competitive battery life that can be found in less expensive 7-inch tablets.

With good battery life and a relatively clean build of Android Jelly Bean, the Toshiba Excite Pure does everything it should for a $299 10-inch tablet. If you're on a budget and want a slate that you can share with the family, the device will satisfy all of your video streaming, digital reading and social networking needs.

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.

65.67%: 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.
