Augen Rolls Out a New Android Tablet Lineup With Six Different Models

1 Comment

Augen’s tablet division has been very active lately. First, it was the company’s 7-inch Android 2.1 tablet…and now here they are again, ready to trailblaze the next major tablets evolution with six(!) different Android 2.2 “Espresso” / “Latte” contenders. And while some models are aiming for the low-mid markets, others are featuring some top-notch technologies on board. A primary part of the upper-class department includes two very interesting models: the Espresso Doppio and the Espresso Firma. The 10.2-inch Doppio, which runs for $599.99, appears to be this sort of netbook-tablet hybrid device hosting a 1024 x 768-capacitive touchscreen paired with a built-in accelerometer, and a 3mp camera on front. Digging inside, there’s a powerful 1GHz ARM Cortex A9 CPU, tucked with a 6000mAh battery, claimed to deliver up to 15 hours of work. The other thing that deserves mention is the bundled “hybrid” solution which comes in the form of a cool docking cradle that can instantly transform the Doppio into a portable seashell netbook while adding a backlit keyboard along with multitouch trackpad capabilities and 160GB of storage that enables bigger space for uploads. The Firma tablet, on the other hand, is substantially cheaper than previous version (only $349.99) and mainly based on a 7-inch platform with handwriting technology support. This result can be achieved thanks to this special ink pen stick that Augen is giving you as part of the box.

Nothing to really get excited about, but there are four additional tablets in Augen’s upcoming collection: The Latte, which runs for $199 and sports a 7-inch resistive touchscreen with 2GB of storage capacity to store. The $249.99 Latte Grande which strikes with a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, accelerometer and an 800MHz processor, and the final two in this group, that apparently go under the Espresso lineup – one that will cost you $349.99 and is said to arrive with a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen along an 8GB of internal memory, 3mp front-facing camera, and Cortex A9 processor, while the other, the $429.99 Espresso Dolce, that offers Cortex A8 CPU inside, with a 10.2-inch display, and a 1024×768 screen resolution. Full PR after the break.
