We heard a while back that Sharp has decided to kill off two of its Android tablets, and now the company has launched a new Android tablet which is headed for Japan, the Sharp Galapagos EB-A71GJ-B.
This new Sharp Galapagos tablet features a 7 inch touchscreen display and it comes with Android 3.2 Honeycomb, processing is provided by a dual Core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor and it also comes with 1GB of RAM.
Specifications and Features
Other specifications include 8GB of built-in storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card slot, providing ample space for apps, media, and documents. The tablet is equipped with a rear-facing 5-megapixel camera, capable of capturing high-quality photos and videos, and a front-facing 2-megapixel camera, ideal for video calls and selfies.
Connectivity options are robust, featuring Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and WIMAX support, ensuring that users can stay connected whether they are at home, in the office, or on the go. The device also includes a USB port and a headphone jack, adding to its versatility.
Performance and Usability
The dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, combined with 1GB of RAM, ensures that the Sharp Galapagos EB-A71GJ-B delivers smooth performance for everyday tasks such as web browsing, streaming videos, and running apps. The Android 3.2 Honeycomb operating system is optimized for tablet use, offering a user-friendly interface and access to a wide range of applications through the Google Play Store.
The 7-inch touchscreen display boasts a resolution of 1280×800 pixels, providing clear and vibrant visuals, whether you are watching movies, playing games, or reading e-books. The compact size of the tablet makes it highly portable, fitting easily into a bag or even a large pocket, making it an excellent choice for users who need a device that can be used on the go.
Battery life is another important aspect, and the Sharp Galapagos tablet does not disappoint. It offers a decent battery life that can last through a day of moderate use, including browsing, media consumption, and light gaming.
The tablet will go on sale in Japan shortly for around 58,900 YEN, which works out at about $765. While this price point places it in the higher range of the market, the combination of its features, performance, and build quality makes it a compelling option for those looking for a reliable and versatile Android tablet.
