Skytex has announced the addition of two new Android Skypad tablets to its range in the form of the Gemini and Protos. The two new tablets will be arriving in stores during July and both run Google’s latest Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) operating system.
Both Android tablets are also powered by a 1.2 GHz Arm Cortex A8 processor supported by 1GB RAM. With graphics provided by a Mali-400 graphics card.
Skytex Protos: A Feature-Rich 9.7” Tablet
The Protos, priced at $279, is a 9.7” tablet equipped with a wide-view IPS screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This aspect ratio is particularly beneficial for reading and browsing, providing a more natural and comfortable viewing experience. The Protos is also fitted with a 6000 mAh battery, which its manufacturers claim will provide 10-20 hours of continuous web surfing. This extended battery life makes it an excellent choice for users who need a reliable device for long periods without access to a charger.
In addition to its impressive battery life, the Protos is fitted with a 5MP camera on the rear and a 2MP web camera on the front. The rear camera is suitable for capturing high-quality photos and videos, while the front camera is ideal for video calls and selfies. The Protos also supports 1080p and 3D through an HDMI port, allowing users to connect the tablet to a larger screen for an enhanced viewing experience. Other connectivity options include a mini USB port and a micro-SD card slot for up to 32GB of additional storage, providing ample space for apps, photos, and videos.
Skytex Gemini: A Compact and Affordable 7” Tablet
The Skytex Gemini, priced at $179, is a 7” tablet equipped with a capacitive multi-touch screen sporting a 16:9 aspect ratio. This aspect ratio is perfect for watching videos and playing games, offering a widescreen experience that is both immersive and enjoyable. The Gemini is finished with a rubberized “slip-proof” coating, providing extra grip when in the hand. This feature is particularly useful for users who are always on the go, ensuring that the tablet remains secure and easy to handle.
Despite its compact size, the Gemini does not compromise on performance. Like the Protos, it is powered by a 1.2 GHz Arm Cortex A8 processor and supported by 1GB RAM, ensuring smooth and efficient operation. The Mali-400 graphics card provides excellent visual performance, making it suitable for gaming and multimedia applications. The Gemini also supports 1080p and 3D through an HDMI port, allowing users to enjoy high-definition content on a larger screen. Additionally, it includes a mini USB port and a micro-SD card slot for up to 32GB of additional storage, ensuring that users have plenty of space for their files and media.
Both tablets are designed to offer a high-quality user experience at an affordable price. They come with the latest Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) operating system, which provides a user-friendly interface and access to a wide range of apps and services through the Google Play Store. The ICS operating system also includes features such as improved multitasking, customizable home screens, and enhanced notifications, making it easier for users to manage their tasks and stay organized.
