HTC has unveiled a new tablet which will probably start comparisons with other top tablets out there. iPad opened up the market in 2010 for tablet computers in a big way, and that niche of the industry has grown like never before. HTC EVO view 4G is a 7 inch tablet which looks impressive and has a lot of novel features, but it does have an out-dated OS and no dual core processor.
HTC EVO View 4G Specs
- Processor: 1.5 GHz processor MSM8655. (no dual core)
- Operating System: Android 2.3 with HTC Sense for tablet. (No Android 3.0 Gingerbeard meant for tablet devices)
- Internal Memory: 4 GB
- Display: 7” inch 1024 X 600 resolution
- Camera: Two cameras with 5 megapixel with auto-focus
- Battery: 4000 mAh Lithium battery
A glance at their tablet specs shows that with Android 2.3 (most recent android tablets in the next few months will have Android 3.0 Gingerbread version) on a tablet will be quite out-dated.
Also with lack of dual core processor, I think this tablet could have been fine last year but surely not in 2011. Check the competition for iPad in 2011.
