iBall has been pushing its Windows 8.1 based tablets and 2-in-1 devices quite aggressively in the market. The Indian manufacturer has now unveiled a new tablet in the segment called the Slide i701. This is the cheapest Windows 8.1 tablet you can buy today with a price tag of just Rs. 4,999.
This will encourage users to make the switch to a tablet, especially if they're new to the concept. Understandably, the hardware is nothing to write home about here, but you will still find that the device is an attractive proposition considering the pricing. The tablet also has Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor's autograph on the back, which will certainly appeal to the fans.
"We are extremely elated to announce our latest Tablet iBall Slide i701 with the Industry giants Intel and Microsoft. It's the World's most economical Windows Tablet ever with price tag of Rs 4,999 only. We are sure every customer will be delighted with this offering," said Sandeep Parasrampuria, director at iBall.
The tablet is based on an Intel Atom chip, so it's designed to work with Windows machines. iBall also mentions that the tablet will be upgradable to Windows 10 for free later this year, which is excellent news if you're looking to make this your long term companion. Thanks to the micro HDMI port on the tablet, you can connect the device to monitors around you.
The Slide i701 will be available for purchase starting May 21 and will come with an HDMI Cable worth Rs 699 along with three user replaceable protective covers worth Rs. 599 in value for free.
