Teclast has just come out with a brand new and improved version of the awesome T760 tablet. The new tablet is marketed as the T760's big brother, and comes with upgrades such as... well... we don't exactly know. To be honest, there doesn't seem to be any upgrades at all. Running through the list of specs on the T760VE, each spec seems to match the T760's exactly. So I suppose we won't really be going any further with this other than check out the T760 at our store! :D via imp3

September 26, 2011 by Alex in Android Tablet, Motorola, Tablet with No Comments.

There has been rumours about the Motorola Xoom 2 tablet, but non that have had any concrete evidence... until now! With these two leaked (and blurry) images of the Motorola Xoom 2, we now know it exists. With that said, it might not even be the Motorola Xoom 2! What we mean is that it this tablet might not be coming with the name that's synonymous with a bark louder than its bite - the 'Xoom' - reflected by the original Motorola Xoom's poor sale figure, so we'll stick with its model number for now: MZ617. More after the break. According to inside sources, the new Motorola tab will come with an HDMI and USB port, and will have the same weight as the original Motorola Xoom. The photo showing the rear side of the tablet also reveals a camera with an HD sign next to it. Other physical

A Dissected Sony Tablet S

September 23, 2011 by Alex in Android Tablet, Sony, Tablet with No Comments.

It was only a matter of time before someone, somewhere decided to pry open the new Sony Tablet S and spill its guts for all to see. Well we have our man website: TechRepublic. The Sony Tablet S, which we have extensively been covering, was easily dissected - only two screws were needed to be unscrewed in order to remove the back. Android tablets aren't really meant to be opened up that easy, let alone opened up at all. The open Tablet S revealed its 500mAh battery that looked replaceable, and while Sony are currently offering a WiFi only version, there's clearly space for a 3G or 4G card - potential hacking grounds? Find out more about the Tablet S' internal hardware, as well as descriptions of all the different chips from the following site. via liliputing

Window have come out with two new 7-inch tablets that house the current prom king of processors, Rockchip's RK2918 chip. The two new tabs have practically idential specs save for their screen type - The N11 has a 2-point resistive touchscreen and the N12 has a 5-point capacitive touchscreen. As for the rest of the specs, they both have a screen resolution of 800 x 480, 512MB of DDR 3 RAM, does 1080p video playback, comes with WiFi and 3G connectivity and runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread. They both sport a different look with the N11 slightly resembling the Ainol NOVO8 minus the buttons, and the N12 having that classic china-tab, black front bezel with white back shell look. The RK2918 processor certainly is a good chip, but are these two tablets just another couple of drops in an expanding p

September 19, 2011 by Alex in Android, Android News, Android Tablet, HP, Tablet, Video with No Comments.

The HP TouchPad's steal price of $99 resulted in an tsunami of sales which put WebOS into the hands of many, but that wasn't enough, or rather WebOS wasn't enough. The people wanted more, and more they shall have. Through the skills of developers, Android started appearing on the tablet - slow but steady. We've already blogged about the progression of having the Android Touchscreen working, well now we've got more.  Find out what after the break.
