Not Completely Sold Yet
This is my first tablet after years of using laptops. First, I must say this "refurbished" Iconia tab looked brand new right out of the box. I have an Android smartphone that I rooted and installed a custom ROM, so that was the first thing I did with the Acer.
Pros:
- bright screen
- battery life
- value for money
Cons:
- Preloaded Programs
- Size & Weight
- some android apps

It has a better screen than the iPad 2 and it costs half the price. It has a USB port and a SD slot to add memory. It's responsive... except for some pdfs which seam to be slower than on an iPad no matter what program I install..
Pros:
- Half the price of an iPad
Cons:
- Updates are coming in slow

Hands-on Review: Acer Iconia Tab A500
Acer is just one of many companies playing its hand in the rapidly growing tablet space. But can any tablet actually overtake the Apple iPad for the number one position?

Acer Iconia Tab A500 review: Acer Iconia Tab A500
Acer's Iconia Tab offers the features of the Motorola Xoom at iPad-beating prices but weighs in as the heftiest Android tablet yet.
Pros:
- The Acer Iconia Tab offers Android Honeycomb (upgradable to Android 4.0) on a 10.1-inch screen along with GPS, front and rear cameras, Adobe Flash compatibility, full-size USB host port, HDMI output, and a reasonable price.
Cons:
- The Iconia Tab is thick, and one of the heaviest consumer tablets we've seen. Some locally stored HD video files wouldn't play properly.

I really don't understand why this device isn't touted to be the best tablet out there. I bought a asus transformer, don't like it as much, rated less then a500
Pros:
- Full USB port
- screen orientation physical lock switch
- amazing graphics
Cons:
- none

Great tablet for the price!
This is a great multi-purpose tablet. Materials and finishing are stylish and good quality. The buttons, rocker and ports work flawless and increase the usability and versatility of the tablet. Most main stream apps like Body, Evernote, Netflix, Chrome, USA Today, WSJ, etc will work ok.

Good tablet but not the best
This is my first tablet. I wasn't sure how I would like using a tablet PC, so I didn't want to
Pros:
- constuction
- price
- HDMI and USB ports
Cons:
- slow wifi
- occasionally freezes if too many apps are running

Acer Iconia Tab A500 review
Acer has taken a different approach from most manufacturers to tablets. Instead of putting all it's money behind one operating system like LG, Samsung and Motorola, it has created two tablets lines within its Iconia range.
