Office for Android is a key piece of Microsoft’s conquer-the-cloud strategy. The promise is you can work on any device, yes even on Android, with the productivity suite you know and (maybe) love.

Get started with a Microsoft account To use and edit each of these Office files you’ll need a (free) Microsoft…

Calling a new Android tablet a potential iPad killer is a cliche. But make no mistake: Acer s Iconia Tab A700 has its sights set on doing just that thanks to an impressive list of specifications that includes a 1920-by-1200-resolution display and 32GB of storage, and a $450 price that comes in at 25 percent below the price of a same-capacity iPad. The Iconia Tab A700 goes on presale today, and will be shipping later this month at retail and directly from Acer; it will be available either in black or silver. Acer was one of two Android tablet makers to introduce a high-resolution…

Not everyone wants to spend hundreds on a tablet, though. About a year ago, Amazon stepped in to fix that problem by debuting a 7-inch Android tablet that cost just $50, and wasn’t just total crap. However, there were still some big caveats aside from the specs. The tablet ran fine and the software was OK, but its performance degraded over time and the lack of the Google Play Store was a pain. Then, things all changed when Barnes…

Share Despite modern phones having cameras in them with hugely powerful cameras, tablets are somewhat left behind. But if you do want to shoot photos with your tab, what has the best camera?

The Huawei MediaPad X1 . Despite being a virtual unknown, the camera packs a 13MP camera into its 7″ body – which can shoot photos at 4160×3120. It also sports…

Fifty bucks can buy morning coffee for all your cube-mates, an ugly sweater for your holiday party, hell, even a budget-priced new console release, and now, thanks to RCA, it can also buy a fully functional 7″ Android tablet. Skeptical? Of course you are. Unless you’re a diehard fan who only pays top dollar for the latest Nexus or Galaxy, you’ve likely been burned by barebones tablets before. With that in mind, let’s take a look at what RCA’s Voyager offers for its positively paltry price. Overall, the Voyager II is a decent looking piece of kit. While the back of the system’s…

Go anywhere people are taking photos and you’ll see someone taking photos with an iPad or some sort of Android tablet. Everyone’s already pointed out how silly this looks — but is it really a bad idea? Phone vs. Tablet Camera Hardware Most tablets have rear cameras, just like you’ll find on smartphones. People aren’t just taking selfies with these things. But how good are these cameras? Let’s compare Apple’s latest iPad Air and iPhone 5s to each other.

The Roku 3 is a premium player with a superior feature set to rivals. The wireless headphones are a boon and the UK content selection is superb, although we experienced lip-sync issues and network media playback is too unreliable. Owners of the original Chromecast have very little reason to upgrade the new model. Google has improved the design with the Chromecast 2 and added better Wi-Fi. We also like the new app and, in general, the device is a bargain at £30. However, the Roku Streaming Stick outclasses it for less than £10 extra with more content available, a remote control…
