The editors didn't like
The Flyer is small
Thick
And pricey
And isn't running Google's Android 3.0 tablet OS. Its most unique feature
The Magic Pen
May not come included and is expensive to replace
Not so great with taking photos & videos
Somewhat pricey
Because it is such an integral part of the Flyer experience
I think it was cheap of HTC to not include a pen with the WiFi tablet — or at least offer a less expensive digital pen option
I have an issue where I can't seem to hold the stylus without act
Software doesn't solve any pentablet expected functions
And is not suitable for professionals
Small size makes writing on the device more of a hassle than it's worth
There is nowhere to keep the stylus on the Flyer
Prices vary greatly between retailer
Email is not tablet-optimised
HTC’s interface could mean a while before update to Honeycomb is possible
Average design that harks back to its smartphonesLook and Feel...

Expensive pen is optional
Easy to lose
No handwriting recognition
Doesn't sync audio recordings with Evernote
Low-quality cameras
Non-tablet-specific version of Android. Google Talk video chat isn't supported in Gingerbread. Slow browser performance. Cluttered default layout. Cameras are only mediocre.
Pen not bundled in US
Flyer only runs smartphone apps at launch
Can?t navigate device with pen
Poor camera
Fragile/fiddly rear cover
Sluggish at times
Nowhere to dock stylus without case
Not particularly fast or particularly cheap. Runs Android 2.2
Not 3.1
At least until HTC delivers the promised update. Stylus is a frivolous gimmick
Stylus costs $80
Poor camera quality
No OCR apps supported
Expensive
Outdated OS
Single-core processor
PriceHeavy and chunkyFew apps optimized for screen size
There are some things we love about the Flyer: the high-quality build, the size, performance and HTC Sense is slick and efficient. Sure Sense lacks features of Honeycomb, but it's arguably simpler to navigate. The Flyer is not a multimedia powerhouse, but...

The HTC Flyer is a comfortable seven inches, making it easy to hold like a paperback book for reading, as well as to allow thumb typing if you are on the go and can't place it down to type on

Abstract: Siguiendo la estela de su antiguo lema "HTC Innovation", HTC nos presenta una tableta que nada tiene que ver con las que podemos ver actualmente en el mercado. Con un aspecto físico limitado por sus 7 pulgadas y un diseño con colores prudentes, el HTC Fly...
