Some of you may be aware that we recently attended an event held in London where Acer showcased their new 7.9″ Android Jelly Bean Iconia A1 tablet. After spending some time with the tablet, here’s our quick review on what we thought of the new upcoming low cost tablet.
We were delighted to be invited to the UK launch of the Acer Iconia A1 Android tablet yesterday in London. It was great to see the new, sleek 7.9″ tablet demoed by Lucy Yang, Acer Product Manager from Switzerland. The below are photos taken from the event as well as the official press release. We’re told the Iconia A1 has already attracted plenty of interest from top retailers and hopefully we’ll be seeing it hit the shelves by the end of this month.
Here are the key features…
- Sleek design, slim size makes it perfect for one-handed use
- Quad-core processors for faster media performance
- Vibrant visuals on 20.1 cm (7.9”) LED-backlit display with IPS technology and 5MP camera
- Great all-day companion with 7-hour battery life ideal for modern day explorers, adventurers, digital freaks and busy mobile executives

Porsche has revealed the images and specs of their upcoming 2014 911 Turbo and Turbo S, the new car is capable of 0-62mph in a searing 3.1 seconds. The Turbo will have on offer 520 bhp while the Turbo S will offer 40 more bhp. Both versions will have a 3.8-litre twin-turbo flat-six, mounted at the back of the car in traditional 911 fashion. Unfortunately, there will be no manual gearbox option, with Porsche electing to offer only the seven-speed PDK paddleshift automatic.
We were delighted recently when The Snugg sent us one of their featured best sellers – Snugg iPad 4 executive case cover and flip stand. We’ve used it for just over a week now and thought it was about time to share some of our thoughts on the case, the good and the bad.
Recently we were sent the Monteverde One Touch Engage Retractable Ink Ball rollerball pen, now I know what you might be thinking, why would we be interested in reviewing such a mouthful of a pen? It turns out this pen boasts a few unique, innovative features that you might not expect. Not only does it feature a retractable rollerball system, it also has a built-in ink converter which means it is refillable using any ink you please, just like a fountain pen. In addition to this, the One Touch Engage Retractable Ink Ball is so named as it doubles also as a stylus.
