We finally know the price and date sale of the interesting Android tablet focused on video games WikiPad. This tablet has raised a lot of expectation due to its rarity and its agreements with large video game distribution platforms. Other brands have made an effort to produce something similar and we will also talk about it.
WikiPad will go on sale in the US on October 31 for a price of U.S. dollar 499. The price is good, although it is not the most competitive given the latest movements in the market. Let us remember the technical characteristics of this tablet to contrast that information.
WikiPad it is a tablet with operating system 4.1 Android Jelly Bean. It has a screen of 10.1 inches with IPS panel with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Will use a processor Integra 3 1,4 GHz quad-core Nvidia and 1 GB of RAM DDR2. We can store data up to 16 GB expandable by microSD card. It will have two cameras: an 8 MPX rear and a 2 MPX front. The most remarkable thing is its ability to attach a controller or controls that allows us to play video games as if it were a portable console with its crosshead cursor and its four buttons.
As we already know it is a licensed tablet PlayStation Mobile, had an agreement with the gaming platform Gaikai purchased by Sony and will offer games of TegraZone, specially designed for Tegra 3 processors. In addition, it will also be licensed Google Play and we will be able to access all the games offered there.
In short, it is a wonderful tablet to play with and the price is not bad at all. Maybe we miss a little more 1 GB of RAM to move the graphics with more agility.
Recently the French company specialized in low cost tablets, Archos, announced that it is working on a tablet with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, with a 7-inch screen, with built-in controls and interesting features. The best, will go on the market for less than 150 euros. Will be called Archos GamePad And if it kept its promises, WikiPad would have a tough competitor.
So let's hope that it arrives soon in Spain and then we can compare and choose to buy it. If you keep the typical price translation of $ 1 equal to 1 euro, you would arrive for 500 euros, perhaps too much.
What a pleasure to meet someone who tiknhs so clearly
