Huawei S7 Android Tablet Running Snapdragon
June 3, 2010
We first ran into the S7 Android tablet at MWC at the Huawei booth. It was a mystery what it was running, the rumors were VIA or maybe ARM, but we see today that its running on the Qualcomm Snapdragon platform.
The build quality of the tablet is one of the highest of the show. The battery was run out and we think it had been over played with because out of the 1/2 a dozen people we know who played with it, I was the only one to have it re-boot during the video, so at least you get to see how quickly it boots.
The andriod tablet running 2.1 is 7 inches and also acts as a phone. We have high hopes for this tablet as we know Chippy from CarryPad has already named it tablet of the show.
