Viliv X7 and X10 Android tablets hands-on
Viliv had its new Android tablets on display for us to get our grubby hands on, and the company continues to impress us with its sleek designs and attractive feature sets. The X10's claim to fame is its monstrous 8300 mAh battery which should yield over ten hours of use even with its 10.2-inch display. What we saw was only a prototype, but it doesn't seem that the battery added any additional bulk to the svelte design. The X7 seven inch model should look pretty familiar, considering it has essentially the same exact enclosure as that X70 slate we spent time with earlier (the only difference is the OS and some tweaked buttons). Both tablets have a Cortex A8 processor chugging away at 1 GHz, front and rear 1.3 / 3 megapixel cams respectively, and support for 3G. They were currently running Froyo but will ultimately ship with Gingerbread. When we mentioned Honeycomb we couldn't exactly get a straight answer, but it's a safe bet that won't happen off the bat and a very vague "3.0 (TBD)" note in the press release doesn't make anything more clear. Check out these twin tablets getting cozy in our gallery shots below. %Gallery-113331%
Viliv to debut Android-based X7, X10, Windows 7-based X70 tablets at CES
We can't say for sure just yet, but we're starting to get the feeling that we're going to see lots of tablets at CES. The latest to join the party is Viliv, which has just announced that it will be showing off its new Android-based X7 and X10 tablets, along with the Windows 7-based X70 "slate" -- the latter of which is touted to be the "most slim and light Windows 7 based tablet in the world," and is presumably a successor to the company's existing X70 tablet. As you might expect, however, Viliv is still saving most of the key details for the official unveiling at CES, but you know we'll be there to check them all out first hand.
Yukyung intros Viliv X7 GPS / PMP unit
It's been less than a month since Korea's Yukyung took the wraps off its Viliv X2 PMP navigator, but it seems that the company has already decided to further expand the line, with it now introducing its Viliv X7 unit. As with the X2, this one's available with your choice of 4GB or 8GB of NAND flash memory, along with a 7-inch 800x480 display, a rear view camera, and an SD/SDHC slot for further expansion. As is par for the course, the device also comes packed with all the usual PMP features, as well as an integrated DMB TV tuner, TPEG support for traffic alerts and, yes, even karaoke. Look for it to set you back 549,000 won for 4GB model and 629,000 won for the 8GB (or roughly $595-$680).
