|

PC manufacturer Acer is aiming to make big in the tablet market with its forthcoming slate, dubbed the Iconia Tab B1-730 HD. The mysterious 7-inch tablet will be announced during Acer's press conference to be held on April 29 in New York.

 

Now, a new rumor reveals that Taiwan-based Acer is expected to bring a refreshed version of the Iconia B1-720, which will be powered by an Intel Atom Bay Trail dual-core processor.

 

Acer Iconia Tab B1-730 HD: What to expect?

Acer has not provided any statement on if they are coming up with a device dubbed as the Iconia Tab B1-730.

In the meantime, the folks over at Germany-based blog site Mobile Geeks have managed to get their hands on a few leaked pictures what they claims could be the Iconia Tab B1-730 HD.

They also claim that the European edition of the Iconia Tab B1-730 HD would be launched under different name: Acer One 7 B1-730.

Going by the leaked press images, we've got to know that the B1-730 HD will arrive with a textured back panel. Moreover, we can see it comes with on-screen navigation keys.

Amusingly, the Acer Iconia Tab B1-730 HD won't come with a Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, despite having a "HD" brand name attached to it. Instead, you will get to see a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixel resolutions.

Other than that, the tablet device is expected to feature 1.6GHz dual-core Intel Atom Z2560 processor with PowerVR SGX544MP2 GPU, 1GB of RAM and at least 8GB or 16GB of on-board storage.

The Android 4.4 Kitkat powered tablet will come with a 3,700mAh battery fitted inside. Other highlighted connectivity options include: 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and aGPS.
