Acer Iconia Tab 8 review-in-brief: pretty but pretty soulless

By Andy Walker, former editor

Acer-Iconia-Tab-8-1

I enjoy getting gadgets to test for predetermined periods of time. Some I wish I could keep to dress in baby clothes and tuck them in at night. Others I want to toss in a fire and never hear from them again, unless its the crackle and sizzle of burning plastic.

The Acer Iconia Tab 8 is neither one of these, but that doesn’t make it an exciting prospect either.

As I recently pointed out in my Huawei MediaPad 10 Link+ review, the tablet genre is a tad stale, and no one (except perhaps Lenovo) is willing to change this.
