| Bottom line | With a host of improvements--faster graphics, 4G wireless
options, a better camera, and a gorgeous high-res screen--the latest
iPad cements its position at the head of the tablet pack. | The latest
iPad adds several tweaks and improvements to secure its position at the top of the tablet heap. It's better all around, but third-gen owners need not apply. | With its excellent design, useful software features, and low starting price, the
Nexus 7 is the cheapest way to experience the best that the Android OS has to offer. | If you're looking for a pure media consumption experience, the
Kindle Fire HD 8.9 delivers better than any tablet before it. People looking for something more utilitarian, however, will want to look elsewhere. | The
Nexus 10's superior design and swift performance make it one of the best Android tablets to date. |
