Touch screen tablet - Quanta already working on Tegra 2 tablet

The ink hasn’t ever dried on the Nvidia’s Tegra 2 chipset family announcement and tablet prototypes running it had already hit the web. Quanta, one of the biggest OEM manufacturers in the world, presented at its booth at CES a working prototype of a slate tablet running Android OS on a Tegra 2 chipset. Being a prototype means beta software so some things didn’t run as smoothly as you might have expected, notable being the touch screen which seemed to miss a few touches once in a while and a wobbly screen that rippled when being pressed from behind.

Not too much to see, but to 'touch'

But any product has its ups and downs, especially when still in Beta. Quanta’s tablet was notable for its battery life: 140 hours of music playback with the screen turned off and Full HD 1080p playback for up to 10 hours means you can watch movies on big screens via a HDMI output for longer without needing to recharge. As Quanta just showcased this prototype expect to see it in popular brands offers soon in a similar shape, but with a better overall finish.

Slim design and great battery life
