China's Huawei on Monday took the wraps off a seven-inch tablet running a cutting-edge version of Android .Huawei has announced the world’s first Android 3.2 device, a 7” inch tablet known as ‘MediaPad’.
Huawei’s MediaPad website describes as being high-def, but the exact resolution isn’t specified (although Engadget mentions a fairly high pixel density of 217ppi; the HTC Flyer and 7” Galaxy Tab both have around 170ppi). We are promised HD recording and “1080p Full HD video playback”, handy for that integrated HDMI port.
Android 3.2 is still a Honeycomb build (so it doesn’t get its own delicious code-name), and is described as being very similar to 3.1, but specifically optimised for 7-inch tablets.
Huawei are still playing a few cards close to their chest – so far, there’s no word on how much this baby’s gonna cost, nor on how much RAM it will carry, nor indeed on whether the device will carry a custom Android-skin, or if it might go commando with an untainted ‘stock’ Android 3.2 experience.
