Excellent screen ; Decent build

Poor performance ; Buggy ; No Android Market ; Outdated OS

doppelganger on the cheap is ultimately a failure, but a minor one that comes with the flexibility benefits common to Android tablets. There is a blatant copycat element at work here that's unbecoming, though. Or perhaps we've just spent way too long...

Well balanced feel in the hand ; Slim, easily portable design ; Great price ; Free apps ; Good audio through speakers

Dire homescreen search bar ; Fiddly power and unlock button ; Lack of Android Market ; Poor construction quality ; Sluggish processor

Having already attempted to take on the Android tablet market with the ViewSonic ViewPad 7 and ViewPad 7e, ViewSonic is back with a cut-price device.

As it stands the Viewsonic ViewPad 10e is a rather impressive large screen tablet with an attractive price tag. There are a few rough edges, like the absence of the Android Market and mediocre battery life, but nowhere near as many or as serious as...

Attractive 3D interface

Gingerbread OS struggles to keep up; non-certified Google OS

If you're looking for a budget level Android tablet then you still might like to pause, before considering the ViewSonic ViewPad 10e – until its Gingerbread OS is upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich.
