Enspert Identity Tab E301 Android Tablet Officially Out In South Korea

In the inevitable storm of Android tablets set to rain down on us this coming year, one thing’s for sure: it won’t be easy for smaller manufacturers to distinguish themselves apart. Not to mention creating a buzz. But that doesn’t mean we won’t see them, right? Right. Korean Enspert, for instance, is a good way to illustrate our thoughts, because most people have probably never heard of them before, and yet thankfully, it didn’t stop them from launching an Android tablet of their own. And if you’re still reading, here’s what the company’s 7-inch Identity Tab E301 slate (yep, that’s the full name) is going to boast: Generally speaking, we’re looking at a $350 tablet with 1024 x 600 capacitive touchscreen resolution, alongside a 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 CPU, 512MB of RAM, 8GB of internal flash storage, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, a mini USB hub, and HDMI port. In addition to that, there’s a 4100mAH battery pack preloaded inside, a microSD, optional 3G-enabled version, and last but not least, dual webcams – a 5 megapixel unit on the back, and another at 1.3 megapixel, up front. In a first move, the Asian corp says it has already started selling its latest and greatest merchandise locally, while US invasion is expected to take place in cooperation with a major wireless carrier during a back-to-school launch, in the coming months or so. And while you’re waiting, make sure you check out the quick hands-on preview along with the full PR announcement, half past the break.

Update: There seems to be one or more than one Identity Tab models out there, as it would appear on a recent pre-order page that has recently emerged at  Dynamism‘s online store. The other version, Identity Tab E201U, which will run on Google’s Android Froyo platform (with both Gmail and Android Market preloaded inside), boasts that same 7-inch 800 x 480 touchscreen display on top, along with a 1GHz Hummingbird processor, 512MB of RAM, 8GB of storage, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1, PowerVR SGX540 for the graphics and one single SD card slot. Ship date pushed back to February 1st while pre-order price tag is standing at $349. Full specs after the break.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Turns Official

3 Comments

Samsung has finally gone official with its latest and greatest 7-inch Galaxy Tab tablet. The super hyped Android 2.2 device which Sami has pledged to release across the European continent this month, stores a 1 GHz Cortex A8 processor, paired with wide range of radio frequencies, including  HSUPA 5.76 Mbps / HSDPA 7.2 Mbps (900, 1900, 2100 MHz), and quad-band GSM, while connectivity wise you get the most updated Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0 support. Further more, you will be offered to choose either 16GB or 32GB capacities at your choice, joined by a microSD card slot that can add up to a 32GB more. Under the lid there’s a 4,000mAh battery pack and down the bottom you’ll find a 30-pin dock connector that lets you connect HDMI, USB, and other docking accessory stocks. The white slick tablet comes equipped with a rear 3 megapixel camera with flash and a 1.3 megapixel webcam up front. It’s capable of running Adobe Flash 10.1 platforms and can easily handle Full HD video playback on board. Pricing details and US availability are still missing at the moment, but full specs chart, PR announcement and the official video commercial are just around the jumping spot.

Update1: Pricing speculations start floating across the European continent, as more and more local retailers start reporting about their Galaxy Tab set of prices. Nothing has been officially announced yet, so please take it with a grain of salt unless you know something we don’t. And getting into the details, we’re now hearing of ginormous prices as high as €699 ($890) in France and €799 ($1,020) in Germany – considering there are 16GB and 32GB flavors to choose from. As for UK residents, Expansys will sell you the 16GB Galaxy Tab at £680 ($1,050), with shipping dated for 11th October.

Update2: We’ve just added another hands-on video, taken yesterday at the IFA show in Berlin, by our good friends from newsgeek.

Update3: According to the Wall Street Journal Samsung’s Galaxy Tab will probably cost US residents somewhere between $200 to $300 with a 2 years contract. No details about free-from-obligations pricing, yet.

Toshiba Libretto W100 Dual-Touchscreen Netbook Introduced, Still a Prototype

1 Comment

Still a concept, so please withhold all excitement until it gets live (hopefully in couple of months), and try not to be hard on yourself, will you? After all, we’ve already seen some cool dual-screen tablets/netbooks/laptops showing up in the past, – so the idea, in general, is well known. But that, as a fact, apparently didn’t stop Toshiba from creating its own device, the Libretto W100, which boasts a dual 7-inch 1024 x 600 touchscreens, housing a 1.2GHz Intel Pentium U5400 processor, paired with 2GB of RAM, a 64GB SSD, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth, USB 2.0 port, MicroSD card slot and and of course, Windows 7 Home Premium for the OS. It’s small, very small, only 7.95” (W) x 4.84”(D) x 1.2”(H) of size and 1.8 lbs of weight. Battery wise, you get the 8-cell pack, that suppose to deliver great longevity, as you run Toshiba’s in-house software that includes  Bulletin Board, ReelTime™ and the PC Health Monitor. The suspense – It’s not going to be cheap at all, with prices rumored to start at $1,099 and climb up with the specs. Nevertheless, you can still read the PR and watch the quick video right after the break.

Update: We’ve added yet another promotional video from Toshiba, so check it out after the break.
