It seems that the war for a
substantial hold over the budget tablet market in India is going to get fiercer
by every passing day. Companies like Micromax, Spice, iBall, and others are
fighting hard to gain the top spot. And now one more player has jumped into the
fray- Intex Technologies. The company has announced an 8 inch Android tablet
for the domestic market. Let me sketch a review for you to be able to know what
exactly the tablet called iTab is.
But, as I always do with the
budget gadgets, will first tell you about the price tag. This iTab from Intex
is going to sport a price tag of 11,900 INR. And with the tablet you get a 3G
data card, LAN adapter, a leather carrying case, and a pair of Reebok
sunglasses; all part of the bundle.
Now, moving towards the spec
sheet, the tablet comes packed with Android 2.3 gingerbread. And in the CPU and
RAM section it has got a 1GHz Cortex A8 processor which is well complimented by
a 512 MB DDR3 RAM. The iTab has a bright display screen of 8 inch, which has a
resolution of 800x600p. The device has got an 8 GB flash memory on board which
can be furthered till 40 GB via a 32GB microSD card. This tablet has a 5000 mAh
battery which is capable of giving the users a work time of 5-6 hours with the
Wi-Fi on. In the connectivity segment it has got Wi-Fi, 3G, USB and HDMI connectivity.
For the music lovers it has
support for many formats such as MP3, WAV, WMA, AAC. And in the video genre it
has AVI, MP4, MOV, 3GP. The Intex iTab comes pre-loaded with 360 degree
G-Sensor feature, apps such as the Adobe Reader, Android Market and games like
Angry Birds, Solitaire, Talking Tom etc.
Many of you would agree with me
that in spite of all the aforementioned features and specs the iTab seems to be
a little exorbitant for its caliber. When other budget tablets are well below
the 10K mark, Intex Technologies would have to pay some heed towards the
pricing, otherwise the iTab is a worthwhile tablet.
