The AT100-S102's Adaptive Display technology constantly adjusts parameters such as brightness and contrast according to the ambient lighting conditions, making sure the tablet offers the best possible image display automatically. In addition, Toshiba's Resolution+ technology is integrated as standard. This enhances the quality of standard-definition videos to exploit the full potential of the AT100-S102's high-definition display, independent of the quality of the source material.

Unparalleled sound quality is achieved with Toshiba's audio enhancements that adapt sound output to the surrounding conditions. This means the tablet's stereo speakers bring the sound quality of music tracks, videos and games to life like never before.
