Verdict

The Toshiba Thrive is a 10.1-inch Android tablet featuring a 1280x800 LED-backlit display and a 1GHz dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor paired with 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. Its standout characteristics include a laptop-like array of full-sized ports—including USB 2.0, HDMI, and an SD card slot—alongside a unique user-replaceable battery and a textured, rubberized back for enhanced grip. Main pros include its exceptional connectivity without the need for adapters, easy file management, and solid performance for multitasking and HD video. However, its significant thickness (0.62 inches) and weight (1.6 lbs) make it much bulkier than competitors, and it has been noted for mediocre sound quality, limited outdoor screen visibility, and occasional software bugs when waking from sleep mode.
