Verdict

The Toshiba Excite 7.7 (AT275) is a thin and portable Wi-Fi tablet featuring a vibrant 7.7-inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with a 1280 x 800 resolution, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass. It is powered by a 1.3GHz Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor paired with 1GB of RAM and offers 16GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a dedicated microSD card slot. Running on a nearly stock version of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, the device includes a 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and built-in stereo speakers.
