Seeing the profitability in tablets, Lenovo expanded its tablet offering for the mass consumers with the recent introduction of the A1000 and A3000, two new seven-inch A-series tablets running on Android Jellybean 4.1 and are 3G capable.
Intended for first time users of a tablet device, the A1000 and A3000 feature prices that are deemed not too much for ordinary income-earning Filipinos. The A1000 is priced at P6,499, while the A3000 is priced relatively higher at P9,999.
Availability of the Lenovo branded tablets will be this month and will be distributed through Lenovo’s retail partners MSI-ECS, Ingram Micro Asia Ltd. through its sub-distributor Net Essentials, and Open Communications.
Features of the A1000:
A1000, Pocket Studio with Dolby sound plus GSM SIM support
