The 7-inch FonePad has a metallic build but still weighs just 340 grams, much to our surprise. It is also thinner than we expected at 10.4mm. The 7-inch display delivers a resolution of 1280x800 pixels with bright colors and sharp text. It also boasts 3G+HSPA connectivity. It runs on an Intel atom Z420 1.2GHz processor. It has a powerful PowerVR SGX540 graphics card.
You can store up to 16GB of data in the built-in memory and it can be extended up to 32GB using a microSD card. It is a shame that it doesn’t have a rear camera. However, it has a 1.2MP front facing camera. Though the calling feature is not new in tablets, it is a thoughtful move to incorporate this feature in the FonePad.
It might seem a bit weird when seen holding a big device to your ears. It has an earpiece like the ones seen in smartphones. As expected, the device comes with a lot of preloaded apps. To those who want to buy this tablet for personal use, this might not sound good because most of the apps are productivity apps.
It comes with SuperNote Lite which helps you save handwritten notes and drawing. It will be greatly useful for your meetings with your clients when you will not have time to take down detailed notes. It will be available for sale sometime in April for a price of $249. The FonePad has two accessories and these are optional.

The docking station measures 10.1 inches and has a resolution of 1920x1200 pixels. It is powered by a 5,000mAh battery. It has 18mm drivers in the loud speakers and the music is crystal clear. It is expected to hit the shelves after mid-April and you will have to shell out $1,325 for it.
The two devices are sure to live up to the expectations. They feel sturdy and also come with the specs you will want to use. Except for the missing camera in FonePad, everything else on these devices is good.
