New Iconia Tablets Starting Php 5800 (we hope)!

Acer’s gone ahead and unveiled two of their newest Iconia tablets before the craziness that is CES officially begins in the form of the Iconia A1-830 and the B1-720. Both devices are aimed at the affordable side of the market segment, with the 7.9-inch A1-830 being priced by Acer at only $149 in the US, which works out to only Php 6652 before taxes and duties. The 7-inch B1-720 is even more affordable, with a price of only $130 in the US or Php 5803 before taxes and duties. Here’s the spec sheet for both devices:

Acer Iconia A1-830

• 1.6GHz dual-core Atom processor
• 1GB of RAM
• 16GB internal storage, expandable via microSD
• 7.9-inch LCD, 1024 x 768
• 5-megapixel camera
• WiFi, GPS
• Android Jelly Bean 4.2

Acer Iconia B1-720

• 1.3GHz dual-core MediaTek
• 1GB of RAM
• 16GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD
• 7-inch LCD
• 0.3-megapixel camera
• WiFi, GPS
• Android Jelly Bean 4.2

Because there’s little price difference between the two, we think that the A1-830 is the best one out of the pair. Hopefully Acer Philippines manages to get these two across the Pacific without too much price bloat, hehe.
