Acer Iconia A3 Tablet - Specs and Price

Acer Iconia A3 Tablet - Specs and Price

Acer Iconia A3 is the latest Tablet PC, it has a 10 inch touchscreen and a quad-core processor under the hood. The tablet, not being in the high-end category sees a lot of cost-cutting steps being taken. The screen features a paltry resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels with pixel density of 149ppi. That’s ruthless, whatever you call it. The processor under the hood is also most-probably of MediaTek breed and the CPU tech is aging now.




The back does boasts a 5 megapixel camera with Full HD video recording. Also there are Dolby Digital Plus speakers in the thing.

As is customary now, the tablet comes with its own share of software tricks. Intellispin helps the tablet know in what way it is being used even when lying flat, so as to match the screen orientation. Touch WakeApp takes you to your favorite app right from the sleep mode.
