Vizio Introduces a 10-inch Tegra 4 Tablet and a Skinny 7-inch Android Slate

Vizio-Tegra-4-Android-tablet

Vizio is all over the place at CES 2013, whether it’s their smartphone, TV, laptop or tablet. Earlier this week the company announced its first entry into the Windows 8 tablet market. Today, however, the US-based company is back on track to launch a new pair of  Android Jelly Bean devices. The first, and certainly the most interesting of Vizio’s latest tablets is a 10.1-inch slab, powered by Nvidia’s Tegra 4 chip – the world’s fastest mobile processor, to date. But it’s not only the super fast and powerful CPU that makes us so curious about it, but also the 2560 x 1600 high-pixel resolution screen, which is quite remarkable, to say the least. Some of the other specs of the product include a stock Android Jelly Bean OS, running smoothly under the shell, 32GB of internal storage, WiFi connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0, an NFC antenna and 5-megapixels rear camera alongside a 1.3-megapixels snapper on the front.

The 7-inch frame, which is quite impressive as well, will come pre-loaded with a lower resolution of 1280 x 800, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean for the OS, 16GB of in-house repository, and a “rather weak” Tegra 3 processor. No NFC capabilities in this forthcoming tablet form.

No prices were given, but both machines are due out in the first half of 2013.

Vizio Launches a New 11.6-inch Windows 8 Tablet, With AMD Processor On Board

1 Comment

vizio-windows8-tablet-pc Vizio has a well-earned reputation for launching products moments before the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas. In 2011 it was the 8-inch Vizio Via tablet, and this year it’s a whole new Tablet PC collection, powered by Microsoft’s Windows 8 OS. And while we’re still waiting on pricing and availability for most of these new products, the internal info has been released. In general, we’re looking at a 1080p (1,920 x 1,080 pixels) display, rocking a beautiful 11.6-inch screen, sitting on top of a 1GHz dual-core AMD Z60 chip. Quite an interesting setup for a Windows 8 tablet, isn’t it? Well, the other specs are nothing out of the ordinary; 64GB of SSD storage, 2GB of RAM,  a 2 megapixel front facing camera, micro-HDMI and micro-USB ports. More details to follow.

Vizio 8-Inch Via Tablet Introduced, Only Days Ahead of CES

2 Comments

CES 2011 is only couple of days ahead and that’s probably the best time to attract a few headlines and announce the release of new products. Actually, there are plenty of them, but we’ll save you the fuss this time, and let concentrate on this cool 8-inch Vizio Via Tablet that has recently been announced. This nice and slick Android device, which seems to be Vizio’s first attempt to push a compact, well designed, tablet into world’s most overcrowded market, is claimed to have a “high resolution” display, along with three speakers, WiFi connectivity, a front facing camera and HDMI port. The manufacturing company also plans to include inside the Via Plus internet service, which means you’ll be getting yourself plenty of interesting goodies such as Netflix, Twitter, Facebook, Android market access, and Vizio On Demand movie feature, preloaded on board. Neat! Stay tuned.

Update1: Vizio has officially confirmed the details that recently appeared across the interwebs, regarding its upcoming plans to launch an 8-inch Via tablet. The company, that seems to be trying to bring its Android slab up to par with Apple’s iPad and Samsung’s Galaxy Tab, has just issued a PR update that indicates the presence of  WiFi N connectivity within the slate, along with GPS, MicroSD slot, HDMI output and a pair of webcams, one at the back, and another up front. Additionally, we’re looking at 2GB of embedded storage along with a built-in accelerometer and 1,024 x 768-pixel capacitive touch panel on top. Regretfully, there’s no cellular service included, but on the long run, that surely won’t affect our excitement over this device.

Update2: We’ve just added a quick hands-on video, courtesy of Cnet. Check it out after the break.
