The Malata ZPad pad T2 set Android fan all a flutter last year when it made headlines as being the first dual-core Android Tablet available to hit the market. Not only did it feature lightning faster graphics and super quick CPU but it also boasted the ablility to wup the iPad when launching games and opening web pages.
We thought Malata may have out done themselves, but for 2011 they’ve proven that anything is possible and have launched an updated and improved Zpad T8!
More details after the jump.
The new version of the ZPad is named the T8 and gets some great new features such as-
Built in 3G!
A lovely feeling and super grippy rubber texture rear housing.
Superb 3D graphics accerleration and the plus Tegra 2 dual core chips.
Gizchina News of the week
A front facing camera for video chat.
A whole host of ports and plugs including USB 2.0 and a micro SD card reader.
But best of all is the new and improved 9.7 inch capacative screen which featiures the same IPS technology as the iPad’s screen.
Although impressily fast there are a couple of let downs. One is the fact there is no rear camera (not a big deal for everyone). Then there is the fact the T8 is still running Android 2.2, but with it’s faster CPU and upgrade to 3.0 could be on the cards, but the biggest let down and the largest hurdle Malata will need to cross is the price.
3998 Yuan is what you would be expected to pay ($600) for one of these bad boys!
We’ll have more info and images in a few days but in the meantime why not follow us on Twitter.
