Tablet specialists E FUN aren’t going to let the bigger brands have all the fun at CES this year. They’re bringing four new tablet and “2-in-1” models to the floor in Las Vegas, and all of them are powered by Android 5.0 – something that can’t be said with other entry level and mid-tier devices.
First up, their 2-in-1’s – which to us would be a netbook/tablet combo. The Nextbook Ares 11 is an 11.6-inch tablet with a detachable keyboard that allows it to double as a netbook. This device features a quad-core Intel Atom processor backstopped by 1GB RAM. It also features 64GB storage, 2MP front/ rear cameras, miniHDMI output, and a full sized USB port on the keyboard.
The Nextbook Ares 10L is of the same ilk, only that it has a smaller screen, and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 quad-core 1.2Ghz processor, and a smaller internal storage at 16GB. It’s also the first device that E FUN has created to be 4G LTE connected. Both 2-in-1 devices have 720p HD displays.
The Nextbook Ares 8L and 8 are basically the same device – they’re 8-inch tablets, only that the 8L has LTE connectivity. The 8L has a Snapdragon 410 processor while the latter has a MediaTek quad-core processor. Both share the same specs in RAM (1GB), internal storage (16GB), and output/expansion ports.
The 8-inch tablets will sell for USD$129 at the cheapest (Nextbook Ares 8) and USD$199 (Nextbook Ares 8L) for the LTE connected one. The 2-in-1 devices will sell at USD$229 (Nextbook Ares 10L) and USD$249 (Nextbook Ares 11) respectively. Check these Lollipop-flavored devices out at the CES 2015 floor in Las Vegas in a day or so.
