With a 10.1” screen, which offers excellent readability, and a capacitive touch panel, the tablets are perfect for professional presentations. It has two cameras installed, both on the front and rear at five mega-pixels with an LED light, and there are options for still images and movies, or a document scanner depending on the chosen application.
