Verdict

The Toshiba Excite 10 SE is a 10.1-inch Android 4.1 tablet powered by a quad-core 1.6GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. It features a 1280x800 resolution LED-backlit IPS display, a 3MP rear-facing camera capable of 1080p video, and a 1.2MP front webcam. Connectivity includes 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, a micro-USB port for charging, and a microSD slot for storage expansion. Main pros include its responsive performance for gaming and media, solid build with a textured 'Fusion Lattice' grip, and the inclusion of a standard micro-USB port instead of a proprietary connector. However, it suffers from several cons, such as its all-plastic construction that lacks a premium feel, the absence of a micro-HDMI port, and relatively weak camera performance in low-light conditions.
