HTC Flyer 7 inch Android Tablet

HTC has finally joined the tablet bandwagon with its HTC Flyer. While its rivals are moving on to 10 inch tablet format, HTC decided to stick to 7 inch as its dimension of choice. While it looks like another Samsung Galaxy Tab, the Flyer is no slouch as it packs a powerful 1.5GHz processor and a massive 1GB of RAM which should make it more quicker to run. Also included with the Flyer is a Magic Pen which allows you to write notes, scribble and edit photos on the go.

Unlike the latest range of Android tablets taunting Android 3.0 Honeycomb with dual-core processor, the Flyer seems to be running on single core but at a higher 1.5GHz. Another surprise is that it runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread with HTC Sense skin on top which we’ve been told countless of times isn’t a proper tablet experience as intended by Google. Perhaps, HTC is confident that even without honeycomb, they are still able to deliver a rich tablet experience with their custom skin.
