Guest PaulOBrien Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Acer have announced their new A1, their take on the iPad mini form factor. Powered by a quad-core MTK processor, the A1 features a 7.9" 1024x768 IPS screen, the same as Apple's smallest tablet. The device, which weighs 410g and is 11.1m thick, is available in both WiFi and 3G versions. WiFi is of the 802.11b/g/n variety, while Bluetooth is version 4.0. A 5 megapixel rear-facing camera captures 1080p video at 30fps while a front-facing camera is available for video chats. microHDMI is included for video playback on the big screen. 8GB and 16GB versions will be available with the option to expand storage via microSD. The Iconia A1-810 (WiFi version) will be available end of May at a starting price of £149.99, the Iconia A1-811 (3G) version will be available end of July at a starting price of £209.99. I can't say this really excites me...? How about you? Click here to view the item Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kurtfhouse Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Not sure why they would expect anyone to get excited really. I'd go for their own B1 if I was in the market for a budget tablet, the specs aren't exactly worlds apart and with the £20 cash back offer Acer are running through May its almost half the price!

Guest george109 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 According to GSMarena, it has no GPU... Also a nexus 7 is still a bit better for the price in my opinion, if you compare it at http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5399&idPhone2=4850 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
