by Ritij Khurana • January 4, 2013

The Indian mobile and tablet makers seem to be on a roll for quite some time now and with the new year just starting up, they’ve just started launching new products as well. Lava first came on the mobile scenario at a global level when they announced their partnership with Intel to produce Intel powered Android smartphones and the Xolo branded flagship has proven its worth. Lava seems to be in the news once more.

Lava has just soft-launched the successor of their eTab and the newer version has been dubbed as e7H+. They’ve introduced the tablet with Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich. The Indian market is crowded with budget tablets and it shall have a hard time making an impact in the budget tablet market. According to us, it is nothing more than just another tablet and instead it features a processor less capable than the outgoing version. It comes with 1 GHz single core processor whereas the outgoing model featured a 1.2 GHz processor.

Aakash 3 Low Cost Tablet With SIM Support Launch in February 2013

by Ritij Khurana • January 2, 2013

The Aakash tablet when announced seemed to be a game-changer of sorts but then in India how many times have we really got what was claimed. Datawind currently has a huge backload of orders and even though they are giving their best shot at coping up with the demand, their best does not seem even good enough for the Indian market. But then again, since they’ve managed to provide such a VFM product, we can grant them a little delay in keeping up with the demand.

Aakash had a lot of flaws when it was first launched and some of those flaws were taken care of by the next generation of the India’s budget offering in the tablet market when the Aakash 2 was launched recently. But even the Aakash 2 had its share of drawbacks and Datawind plans to launch a further improved version of the Aakash 2 by bringing in Aakash 3 which will feature a SIM card slot as its USP for improving the connectivity to a large extent.

Lava Iris N400 Launched At Rs. 6399

by Ritij Khurana • December 31, 2012

When Intel was looking for companies to use its chipsets in Android devices, not many came forward because the applications were always going to be limited due to the architecture of the chipsets. So, the Indian mobile maker Lava came forward and the result was Xolo X900 which was way way more an Intel product rather than a Lava product. But the brand’s aspirational value never really let the very capable (read as superfast) smartphone set the sales on fire.

Now Lava has been in news for quite some time since it’s been locking horns with the Indian mobile giants Micromax and Karbonn in the so called Premium Budget segment by offering the Xolo A700 and Xolo A800. But then again, there is always another market you could venture into and Lava has just entered a new segment with its budget offering, the Iris N400 Dual SIM Android smartphone which has been priced at Rs.6,399. It will be powered by a 1500 mAh battery and shall have 512 MB of RAM and 127 MB of internal memory which can always be expanded by 32 GB via a microSD card.
