Physical appearance and Features
Acer Iconia outside view, spelled out very neat and sturdy, the rear wrapped in aluminum plate with a very neat finish. Sturdy enough, in my opinion, but really it should be paid to the overall weight that can be quite severe, if using this tablet while lying, holding hands will tire more easily.

There is a USB plug, for use as an input device to your USB stick, keyboard, or mouse, beside there is a microUSB for syncing with a PC. In addition there is a mini HDMI to connect to a monitor / TV. Audio jack did not miss, to listen to music through headphones.

Above features arguably similar to the functions of a laptop, but with a much more compact size.

Battery
Battery Iconia a tab 500 can be fairly decent, the results of using all this time, the average battery last up to 5-6 hours on full use for Wifi and the Internet.To act also particularly fast charging, takes 2 hours to get a battery with a full condition.

Operating system and Applications
Thumbs up for the Android Honeycomb, the operating system is fairly new still is able to deliver something else. Multi tasking, beautiful homescreen, and widgets, which I do not find in the Notebook. But the shortage is still at least experienced on the application for Honeycomb tablets, but with time this is not a constraint in the future.

Update Operating System
Updating using the Iconia can be a difficulty for those who have limited Internet. The absence of facilities in the process of updating your resume to make us have to repeat the whole process of downloading the event of failure.When compared with Asus EeePad for example, he has had the ability resume downloading the file update Over The Air (OTA).
