Best iPad alternativesThanks to it’s ease of use and simple design, the Apple iPad is one of the most popular gadgets of the moment. However Apple’s tablet offering is not the only choice out there – so what are the best alternatives to the Apple iPad2?

1. Amazon Kindle Fire
The Amazon Kindle Fire is, like the iPad, a simple design and is easy to use. Featuring a 7 inch display, CheckoutSpy believes that this is one of the best choices out there if you have a limited tablet budget.

2. Sony Tablet S
The Sony Tablet S is made for entertainment and it comes as no surprise that it is Playstation certified. It is also easy to access Sony’s store for books, video and music. However there are some software bugs and this means streaming is sometimes a little bit hit and miss.

3. Samsung Galaxy Tab
Samsungs Tablet looks similar to the iPad. It’s lightweight nature means that it is easily portable and it boasts a lovely crisp display. The only downsides are that the camera is not great and the app offering is currently poor in comparison to the iPad.

4. Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet
Lenovo’s tablet offering is a sleek design compelete with USB SD card reader. It also has built in pen support and good security overall. One of the downsides is that it is poor sound. Overall, this is a great choice for anyone looking for a tablet for business use.

5. Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet
The Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet is a stylish design which has a great selection of children’s books. However, like the Galaxy Tab, it has a poor selection of apps to choose from and the speakers are not very good.
