The next release to join the tablet battle is the Wikipad 7 Android Gaming Tablet.
It will be releasing on June 11th in the United States for $249. It is planned to be released in the UK and worldwide later this summer. It is powered by Nvidia’s Tegra 3 quad-core mobile processor and will be running Android’s 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system. It will have access to the Google Play store and Nvidia’s TegraZone. Along with that it will be able to play Playstation Mobile games.
The tablet has a 1280 x 800 IPS display and 1GB of RAM. It also contains 16GB of storage and microSD card support. It comes with a front facing, 2-megapixel camera, stereo speakers, microUSB and microHDMI ports. It’s powered by a 4100mAH battery. There is also a detachable dual-analog controller, most likely to help with the Playstation Mobile games.
This system was initially going to be a 10.1-inch tablet and boasted a $499 price tag but was put on the back burner due to production delays and the high cost. It will be available to purchase at Walmart, Best Buy, and Tiger Direct from day 1.
