Adding to the number of feature-rich Android products being doled out at inexpensive rates by lesser-known companies, the Ematic eGlide Steal ICS tablet is here with a price tag of $119.95. This 7-inch slate comes loaded with a 1GHz processor and kicks in 4GB of internal storage, 5GB of additional cloud storage as well as a microSD slot.
What makes this device notable though, apart from its price, is that it ships with Google’s latest OS which was first unveiled in October last year. Pre-loaded features on this tablet include the Kobo eReading application which boasts of a collection of 2.5 million eBooks and EDAN (Ematic’s Digital Assistant & Navigator) which uses voice-to-text technology to search for movie times, nearby restaurants, and more.
“We’re very pleased to include the eGlide Steal in our growing collection of Android 4.0 tablets. We wanted to design a product that provides valuable services for an optimal tablet experience without forcing the consumer to spend hundreds of dollars,” commented Roy Rayn, President of Ematic.
Claimed to be a slim and lightweight device, the eGlide Steal sports 1GB of RAM, while a built-in 3-axis gyroscope as well as an accelerometer make for its motion sensing capabilities. Built-in Wi-Fi and an HDMI connection are brought in tow as well, and so is an HD video player which supports up to 1080p resolutions. The tablet has been embedded with a front-facing camera, but a rear snapper seems to be absent.
As mentioned above, the Ematic eGlide Steal price is $119.95.
