iBall Slide 3G 8072

It has been 2 weeks since I bought this tablet. Let me give the break-down of Pros & Cons. nnProsn- The tab weighs light. The manual says it is 360 grams (I haven't verified it though). n- Screen has the right form factor (4:3) for reading in both the orientation. Very good tab for all those avid readers. Readers rejoice! n- Internet speed is fine (7.2 MBps). n- Feels nice in hands. n- Comes with a thin, soft pouch. n- The earphone that comes with it is not very good but has above average bass output. nnNeutral n- Battery life is a approximately 7 hours (6 hours if 3G Internet is on). n- When you press harder, you can see ripple effects on the screen. It's a minor problem though. n- Screen resolution is average.n- The front facing side is fully made of glass and it is highly reflective - a far cry from the oleophobic screen we seen in Apple's iPad mini. Under bright light, the screen is barely visible. n- No Corning Gorilla glass. nnConsn- Touch sensitivity is average but not uniform all across the screen. Sometimes, you touch one area of the screen, the actual response is in a different area. n- Camera quality is not up to the mark (as expected). nnIn the end, you get what you pay for.

1. Slim, lightweight and easy to hold. 2. Decent screen resolution. 3. Good browsing experience/speed when connected to mobile network. Overall, value for money tablet for someone looking for a more than 7 inch sized tablet with mobile network data feature (without dongle).As always, great shopping experience with Flipkart.
