Nine likely to make you throw off the iPad Tablet PC

Apple iPad has ruled the tablet PC market for a long time. However, this can be considered fair, after all, people have single-handedly created the tablet PC market. However, things are changing now. Apple's main competitors have started to wake up, and even began to catch up with Apple iPad. Thus, despite the latest iPad is still the king of the Tablet PC, but it is no longer the only tablet PC.
1. Google Nexus 7

After a series of disappointing Android tablet market, Google ultimately (with Asus cooperation) launched its own brand of Android tablet Nexus 7. It challenges the strategy of the new iPad is the implementation of competitive differentiation.

The tablet has a 7-inch screen, the volume is relatively small, and indeed more portable than Apple's iPad. Moreover, its price is only 159 pounds, less than half of the iPad. This kind of price to open a new market segment.

More important, with the previous version of the Android operating system, "jelly beans" Android 4.1 is ideally suited for tablet PCs.

2.Amazon Kindle Fire 2

 In the UK, it is easy to lose sight of the fact, and that is truly successful tablet computer to compete with the iPad first was a year ago. Amazon Kindle Fire completely different from the iPad, it's inexpensive, very popular. Unfortunately only available for sale in the United States.

But, do not worry, the Amazon Kindle Fire 2 September 6 has been released, it is likely to be sold in markets outside the United States. Amazon has even do this paved road in the United Kingdom, it has launched the Amazon App Store Appstore.

In addition, the tablet is expected to continue to pick up the Android (but will use a unique user interface), and to improve the quality of the process. In addition, there are rumors that the tablet may launch a 10-inch version.

3.Microsoft Surface.

 Desperately to prove himself in the Amazon, and Google iPad formidable competitor, another mainstream manufacturers, Microsoft is also planning to beat Amazon and Google this year, and take away the iPad's thunder. October 26, 2012, Microsoft will launch Windows8, the main selling point of this operating system is to be able to run on desktop computers and tablet PCs.

In order to achieve this perfect Microsoft even unexpectedly launched its own brand of Tablet PC Surface. The tablet is thin, very stylish, but it has a powerful laptop (it's on the cover of embedded physical keyboard). Surface may be following since the release of the first iPad, the tablet computer industry's most compelling products.

Surface Tablet PC will launch two versions: one equipped with a full Windows 8 and powerful Intel Atom processor, and other models equipped with a stripped down version of Windows RT and popular ARM chip.

4.Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1

Just launched the first generation iPad, Samsung is undoubtedly the only one likely to challenge Apple Tablet PC manufacturers, it launched a series of decent products. Therefore, it is more than any other manufacturer are more to build the perfect Android tablet experience.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is a very attractive combination of products, it is stable and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet computer and popular mobile phone Galaxy Note. Stylus and quad-core CPU, it became interesting iPad alternatives.

If we contests, the difference between the tablet with the iPad is not large. However, it is nonetheless a good Tablet PC.

5. Samsung ATIV Tab.

Samsung does not put all your eggs in one basket, despite its huge success on the Android platform. Therefore, when people heard that Samsung is developing Windows 8 Tablet PC is not surprised. This also indicates that poses a serious threat to Microsoft's new platform might be interested in the iPad.

Samsung ATIV Tab Tablet PC equipped with Windows 8 RT, This means that it runs a streamlined version of Windows 8, instead of the full version of the operating system.

As ATIV not market the highest specifications Tablet PC (it built-in 1.5GHz dual-core CPU), and it supports standard resolution 1366x768 display, the biggest selling point of the tablet may be far below the iPad 400 the price of the pound.

6. Asus Transformer Pad Infinity

 Although Samsung is the first to open up the Android tablet market, but we can say that Asus to create the best products. It is not just a behind-the-scenes producer of the Google Nexus, the same time, it also introduced some excellent Tablet PC.

In fact, other Android tablet manufacturers are working hard to keep up with the pace of the ASUS Transformer series, but the Asus Transformer Pad Infinity is the best a tablet computer.

The the Transformer Pad Infinity is equipped with a high-definition 10.1-inch, 1920 × 1200 resolution Retina Display, quad-core processor, with a nice keyboard dock. Obviously, Asus is trying the latest iPad a test.

The tablet only stumbling block is that it is too high a price, and this might be its future development brought about the fatal impact.

7.Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2

 Compared to the Tablet PC, the Lenovo is more known for its many famous laptop, but Windows 8 operating system can run both products at the same time, so that all the old dividing line disappears. Therefore, the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet may in the enterprise market, the iPad strong competitors.

All enterprises using the iPad may soon abandon it - not to mention netbooks instead use ThinkPad 2. This is not only because of the the Lenovo brand's reliability, but also because the tablet has a strong base of the keyboard, complete Win8 operating system, rapid Atom series processors, as well as the standard size USB interface.

8.Dell XPS10

 There is another computer giant also try the production of the Tablet PC. Of course, Dell had on products mainly to the short-lived Streak fight to enter the Tablet PC market, but Android tablet has not yet success. Dell XPS 10 is another a mashup Tablet PC equipped with Windows 8 operating system. Dell Windows can be described as very much at home.

XPS 10 looks smooth, the use of carbon fiber material, a keyboard base and overall looks like a very compact Dell laptop.

It run leaner, cheaper Windows 8 RT OS system, the XPS 10 more price competitive. After all, Dell is the world's third-largest PC manufacturer, so do not miss the tablet.

9. HTC prototype

 HTC Tablet PC was not so lucky. Despite its Flyer with innovative touch technology, such as a stylus, and a 7-inch screen was outdated, but rather, it is only sold 3 units (maybe more) HTC Flyer. From this perspective, it is almost walking in front of the era.

Fortunately, from Twitter view on the recent outflow of a striking 10-inch equipment, the Taiwanese manufacturer has not given up its innovative initiatives. Some leaked photos show, this is an unusual asymmetric device, it looks a bit like the iMac, with a thick edge - this may be in order to facilitate the user took photographs.

Intense in a mutual imitation of the wind field, any innovation of the mainstream manufacturers may make Apple sleepless nights. We expect that these rumors are true.
