HTC Flyer is available with HTC Sense

HTC has always stood out among the raft of Android phone manufacturers. The company's been partnering with Google since the start, but still forges its own style, which has won it a lot of fans.

Now that Android is a major tablet OS, with Android 3.0 appearing on the likes of the Motorola Xoom andSamsung Galaxy Tab 10.1V, HTC is still staying separate from the crowd.

The most notable change from the norm is the 7-inch screen and the touchscreen stylus, known officially as the Magic Pen. It connects wirelessly to the Flyer, and enables you to annotate, highlight and erase in supported apps. It offers a measure of pressure sensitivity (unlike most styluses on capacitive screens), so may pique the interest of artists.

LG optimus Tablet or Pad

The LG Optimus Pad has been a long time coming.

After months of persistent rumours, LG finally announced its 3D tablet at MWC in February.

Rebadged as the T-Mobile G-Slate in the US, it was long rumoured that the Optimus Pad would pair 3D video capture with a glasses-free 3D display like the one on theNintendo 3DS and LG's own forthcoming Optimus 3D handset.

However, that turned out not to be the case. What we have here is a Tegra 2-powered Android 3.0 honeycomb tablet with dual 5MP rear-firing cameras for 3D video capture. The display is not 3D compatible in any way – it's a standard 8.9-inch LCD capacitive touchscreen with a 15:9 aspect ratio and 1280 x 768 WXGA resolution.

Motorola Zoom Tablet with nvidia tegra 2 Graphic card

The Motorola Xoom is the first Android 3.0 tablet to hit the market. That makes it the first Android tablet to ship with an OS that's designed especially for big screens, and that's why it's so exciting.

Every tech gadget must be judged solely on what it provides, its purpose in life, and whether it will help you accomplish tasks and enjoy your media.

With the Motorola Xoom, it's too easy to make constant iPad (and iPad 2) comparisons. Can you purchase movies as easily? Does the screen get as grimy? Does it cost more?

Yet, the Xoom is the first Android 3.0 tablet, the first really powerful tablet with a dual-core processor, and a sleek, 10.1-inch slate that is easy on the eyes.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1V Complete Review

While 2010 was undoubtedly the year of the Apple iPad, 2011 has a good chance of being the year that Android comes of age.

The original 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab was the only major iPad competitor to be released in 2010, but it was hampered by the inclusion of Android 2.2 – very much an OS designed for mobile phones rather than tablets.

However with the release of the tablet-tastic Android 3.0 this year, the iPad 2 is about to come up against some serious competition.
