Toshiba AC100 review: FIrst look

The dedicated Settings key is also useful. Other standard controls let you turn the Wi-Fi on and off, dim or brighten the screen, control the volume, turn off the track pad if you find you knock it while typing – and take screenshots.

With a 10in screen you don’t need the multiple home screens Android supports to fit in shortcuts and widgets, so Toshiba rather cleverly uses it for five customisable screens that you can link to specific Wi-Fi networks. That way you can get one interface for home and another for work.

But there are other rough edges Toshiba's extras can't help with. When you write an email, you expect Tab to take you from the address field to the subject to the main message. However, on the AC100, it just adds a tab space to whatever field you're in.

You can’t search email with the standard client either. If you want to work with files you have to switch to the front screen, open the menu and find the File Explorer and the email client only lets you attach photos, not other files. Often this isn’t a problem but if you're looking for the rich featureset of Windows and Windows apps, you won’t find it on Android quite yet.
