Vizio’s new 10-inch M-series tablet is fast, sleek, and completely enviable. In terms of design, if the iPad and Galaxy Tab are luxury vehicles, this thing looks more like a Formula One racer.
The M-Series tablet is Vizio’s entry into the high-end tablet market—although just how high we don’t know yet, since there’s no pricing or final word on specs. But think of it like this: If Vizio’s 8-inch tablet is a Kindle Fire competitor, the 10-inch M-Series is gunning straight for the iPad market. It’s a damn good looking, and good feeling tablet, exuding performance and style.

The most visually striking feature is its angularity. The rounded corners you’ve come to expect from, well, pretty much every other tablet are nowhere to be seen. All the corners, as well as the edges, are squared off at right angles. Everything is hard-edged. That overall effect is quite nice. It’s noticeably different, and for some reason suggests performance.
Better, it’s certainly zippy and responsive. It scrolled smoothly, and reacted quickly when we changed orientation. The apps fired fast, and looked great. Downside? It’s running a skinned version of Android. That’s a little bit of an odd choice, given how closely Vizio is working with Microsoft to bring a pure version of Windows 7 to market on its computers.
