Next on our list is the Ideapad tablet which jumps right out of Lenovo's kitty. This Lenovo tablet sports a good fit and finish with its aluminum body and it's a tad heavy compared to other 10-inch capacitive tablets.

The first thing you may notice about the Sony Tablet S is its eye-catchy distinct design like a rolled paperback. With a 9.4-inch capacitive touchscreen, the tablet runs on Honeycomb 3.2 with an added touch of the Sony's gaming attributes. It comes preloaded with Crash Bandicoot and Pinball, and the tablet also transforms into a controller offering touch buttons.
