I recently plunged into smart phone and very soon i wanted a tablet too. I am a great fan of indian products and hence started searching for Indian branded tablets. After a thorough research, I came to the conclusion that, feature wise, the best tab available was the Iball brace X1 mini. I was apprehensive of course, of buying Indian Made tablets. Indian brands have proven themselves in smart Phone business. But Tablets, still suspect. But my fears were proven wrong, for the Iball tablet worked beautifully. There is another 10.1 Inch variant. But I didn't go for it. My preference was 7"-8". Let me list out the pros and cons.nnPros:nBig Battery, Smooth interface, responsive touch, Big Internal Memory (Around 12 GB available to user), preloaded apps like whatsapp, FB, Youtube, Gmail etc., Good speakers located on either side of the stand, nice to hold, dual mini sim with call facility,no lags so far, no heating issues (Mind you, I didn't play games. But watched videos on you Tube), Cover and wiping cloth provided inside the boxnnCons:nCamera not so good, No flash available, Battery takes long time to charge, Wi-fi shows not so strong connection even though i was sitting in the same room as my wifi modem. Feel wifi speed is a bit slower than my smart phone, Though comfortable, its a bit heavy to hold.nnOverall I would give 4/5 for this product and Iball has come out with an excellent product, (Design copied from Lenovo Yoga, This is a bit disappointing ). You can go for it if you are looking for sub 12k range 8" tab. Has all features, like 3G, 3G Via dongle, Dual sim, call facility etc. Just go for it.
