Archos Neon Trio Of Tablets Unveiled

Archos is known for its relatively affordable line of Android products, this includes both smartphone and tablets. Late last year the company announced the Cobalt and Platinum tablets, building up on them, it has now unveiled a new trio of Android powered tablets called Neon. They come in 9, 9.7 and 10.1 inch display sizes with mid-range specifications, called 90 Neon, 97 Neon and 101 Neon respectively.

Since the objective here is to keep the price down, specifications aren’t exactly top notch. The 90 Neon offers 800×480, 97 Neon 1,024×768 and the 101 Neon 1,024×600 pixel resolution display, with all three having 8GB of onboard storage, microSD card slots, and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean firmware. Archos Neon tablets are all powered by a quadcore A9 processor clocked at 1.4GHz on the 90 Neon, and 1.6GHz, 1.4GHz on the 97 Neon and 101 Neon respectively. Only the 97 Neon tablet has a 2 megapixel rear camera and a VGA front camera, the other two only have a front-facing camera suitable for video calls. With Wi-Fi connectivity and access to the Play Store, these tablets come preinstalled with the full suite of Google applications.

Prices of the Archos Neon tablets hasn’t been revealed as yet, even though the tablets have been officially announced. Archos is yet to announce either the price or the release date.
