Acer announced a new budget Android tablet at CES last week, the Acer Iconia B1 which will retail for $129, and now the company has launched an even cheaper tablet in China, the Acer Tab 7.
The Acer Tab 7 retails for the equivalent of $99 in China, and it features a 7 inch display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.
Specifications and Features
Other specifications on the Acer Tab 7 include Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, and a dual core 1.5GHz Cortex A9 processor, plus 1GB of RAM. This combination of hardware and software ensures that the tablet can handle basic tasks such as web browsing, media consumption, and light gaming with relative ease. The inclusion of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, although not the latest version of Android, provides a stable and user-friendly interface for users.
The tablet also features 8GB of built-in storage, which is quite modest by today’s standards. However, it does come with a microSD card slot for additional storage, allowing users to expand the storage capacity up to 32GB. This is particularly useful for those who wish to store more apps, photos, and videos on their device. The Acer Tab 7 is powered by a 3,000 mAh battery, which should provide enough juice for several hours of usage on a single charge, making it suitable for daily use.
Camera and Connectivity
The Acer Tab 7 comes with a VGA camera on the front and a 1.9 megapixel camera on the back. While these cameras are not high-end, they are sufficient for basic photography and video calling needs. The front VGA camera can be used for video calls through apps like Skype or Google Hangouts, while the rear camera can capture simple photos and videos.
In terms of connectivity, the Acer Tab 7 includes several essential ports and features. It has a Micro HDMI port, which allows users to connect the tablet to an external display such as a TV or monitor. This can be particularly useful for watching movies or giving presentations. The tablet also includes a Micro USB port for charging and data transfer, as well as a 3.5mm audio dock for connecting headphones or external speakers.
As yet there are no details on whether the Acer Tab 7 will be sold outside of China. The tablet’s affordability and decent specifications make it an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers, and it would likely find a market in other regions if released internationally. As soon as we get some more details, we will let you guys know.
