People who came in contact with the device claim it’s “absolutely stunning” and more intense than the Retina display. The tablet packs a dual core MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 CPU at 1.5 GHz and runs Android 4.0 ICS. Its screen supports a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution and even supports pen use. Other feats include 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of storage, a microSDXC card slot, Bluetooth 4.0 and NFC. To that we add 4G LTE support and you have to know that the tablet weighs around 280 grams.

IGZO is dubbed as the technology of the future when it comes to displays, since it has better brightness, colors, viewing angles and also it’s about 75% less power consuming than current modern technologies. It even leaves the image displayed on the screen without using power for some time.
