Kobian launches iXA Tab in India at Rs 3,999

Mumbai: Kobian, a leading player in
computer peripherals and tablets
announced the iXA Tab, especially
designed for the growing number of
students and masses, in general.
Tagged at a sub-4K price, the iXA
Tab will compete directly with
Datawind's UbiSlate 7C tablet,
another soon to be released tablet
in this price bracket.
The iXA Tab allows web surfing,
access to one's e-mail, viewing
videos, music, games, e-books and
much more. Bookings for the tablet
start from May 23, 2012 for a price
of Rs 3,999. The Ultrathin iXA Tab
comes loaded with Android 2.3,
weighs 341 gm, sports a resistive
touchscreen and is powered by a
1GHz core processor. You also get
512 MB RAM and 4GB internal
storage, which is expandable to
32GB through microSD.
The tablet also features Wi-Fi that
allows users to access Internet, work
on emails, video chat and much
more at all Wi-Fi enabled spots. The
built-in 0.3MP camera allows one to
capture those moments and also
video chat. It has good multimedia
features as well, like mp3, wav, wma,
aac etc.
One can watch movies and videos
from office, home or while traveling
with avi, mp4, mov, 3GP and many
more video formats the device
supports. Optional accessories, like
case with keyboard shall be available
for users as well.
While the tablet is fairly slim, the two
things that would hurt it a bit is the
OS and the fact that it has a resistive
screen The UbiSlate 7C which is
priced similarly packs in a capacitive
screen, so that may be reason
enough to go in for that, rather than
Kobian's tablet.
Some people may fuss over the fact
that this comes with Gingerbread
and not ICS. However, as long as it's
implemented well enough, we don't
see it being a major problem.
