BlackBerry PlayBook
It was supposed to be the answer to the iPad but in spite of some very good specifications, a few interface and software glitches (you could not access mail in the default mail app unless connected to a BB handset) meant that the PlayBook got a hostile reception. To its credit, BlackBerry has never quite given up on it and has ironed out a lot of the software rough spots with constant software updates (it can even run some Android apps now). It still looks smart enough, works very well even without a BB handset in tow, thanks to a dual core processor and is set to get a BB10 update. Top that off with a massive price cut and you have one of the best deals out there in the tablet market.
Get it for: The BB 10 update and a very good browsing and multimedia experience
Watch out for: The (still) limited number of apps.
Launched at: Rs 27,990 onwards (2011)
Now available for: Rs 13,990 (approx) onwards
