Even before the Mobile World Congress officially launched it, HP has announced a new tablet. Earlier this month there were already rumours that HP would come with Android tablets and the first model is therefore presented.

The tablet market is not new to HP. The company tried in 2011 with the webOS operating system and the introduction of the TouchPad. This failed sadly and put HP webOS therefore within not too long already on the side. The past year focused mainly on HP Windows 8 and introduced a number of (hybrid) Windows 8 tablets, including the HP Envy x2.

The HP Slate 7 is the first model in the Android lineup of this manufacturer. HP has namely been shown not to let this tablet and the next time more tablets in both low-end and mid-end and the high-end segment will launch.

The HP Slate 7 is one of the low-end models, something that we look back at the specifications and the price of 169 U.S. dollars. The tablet features a 7 inch FFS + LCD display with a resolution of 1024 by 600 pixels, a 1.6Ghz dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage memory, a microSD card reader, 802.11 b / g / n Wi-Fi , Bluetooth 2.1, a microUSB port, a VGA camera on the front and a 3 megapixel camera on the back. In terms of software, the tablet runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

Pictures of what it claims is the ZTE Blade 3 has begun circulating online.

Cheap Android Blade became very popular when it was released. Chinese ZTE managed to pack a lot of performance at an attractive price, and says the man managed to sell 140,000 units of the first Blade only here in the North.

The sequel Blade 2 was shown to the UK technology press in the spring. But even now, there has emerged pictures of what is claimed to be the new Blade 3.

Engadget writes that may involve a play with a 4-inch TFT display (800 x 480 pixels), a 1GHz's Snapdragon CPU MSM7227A processor and main camera of 5 megapixels. The software in the phone is said to be Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich).

If these details are correct, not much has changed hardware wise if you compare Blade 2. The large differences in comparison to Blade 2 is the screen of 4 inches, ICS and the design itself: Blade 3 looks to have a much more rounded shape than the somewhat blocky Blade 2 has.

But sure would be nice with a cheaper Android with 4-inch screen?
