    Difference between Acer Iconia A500/A501

    Can you tell me that what are the major differences between Acer Iconia A500 and Acer Iconia A501. I need to buy one of them but don’t know that which one will be the best buy. I will really appreciate each post on this.

    As far as I know that there is just one single difference and that is, A501 is having the support for the 3g sim. I would like to tell you that this does not operate the same like a mobile phone's 3g support because in that you cannot make calls. But relatively, it is used purposely for data transfer while Wifi is not accessible. If your provider permits you then you will be able to send the SMS as well.

    The A500 and A501 Acer Iconia Tab tablets are Acer 10 "with Android OS the difference between the two models lies in the 3G module (SIM opportunity to enter the data for surfing the Internet) only present nell'A501. The term "root" is being able to run some applications with root privileges (the corresponding Windows user Administrator) otherwise denied allowing features such as restarting the tablet, the screen capture, etc.

    It seems that Acer has already started to distribute parts of updates to Android world Honeycomb tablets 3.2 for its A500 and A501 Iconia Tab. I remind you that this version fixes several bugs detected Honeycomb in previous versions and also adds full support for SD cards and a new method of upscaling that makes applications developed for smartphones look better on screens much larger than the tablets.

    This is an update OTA (over the air), so installation is simple. When available, the user will receive a notice on the tablet to download and install, hopefully, likely reaching new parts of the world in the coming days. I remind you that Acer A500 and A501 Tab Iconia two tablets with 10-inch WXGA display with Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core 5-megapixel camera and front camera for video conferencing. Although the model name is different, we are actually talking about the same tablet. The only difference between the A500 and A501 model is that the A500 only has Wi-Fi, while the A501 model has Wi-Fi and 3G.

    The Acer A500 and A501 Iconia Tab are upgrading to the new version of Android Honeycomb where security bugs fixed in earlier versions as well as full support for Mico SD. This update is given via OTA which all users are received at the time they connect to the Internet which is very easy to do because the same system does this firmware update. These high-end Tablets have inside Nvidia Tegra processor 2 give much to talk about the competition from Android Tablet.

    I think that the only difference is of price and the brand. Feature wise, both of them are almost the same.
