Overview

ICONIA TAB A Series

Lightweight and smaller than a magazine, the ICONIA TAB A Series is very easy to carry. It runs on the tablet-tailored Android™ operating system, and sports a capacitive multi-touch display with smart divisions that open up new possibilities for interaction. Enjoy a whole new touch experience!

• Always in touch

Whether family is near or far, the ICONIA TAB A200 brings your loved ones closer. A 2 MP HD camera enables face-to-face chats when you're on the road, and at home, you can sit back and share an e-book or watch the latest streaming movies. When it comes to social networking, it's anytime, anywhere via Acer SocialJogger, which consolidates Facebook, Twitter and more.

• Optimized for media enjoyment

The ICONIA TAB A200 is made for media, featuring hardware and apps to deliver loads of fun. Visuals are fantastic on the generous 10.1" multitouch screen and even thrilling games run smoothly thanks to the NVIDIA® Tegra™ 2 Dual Core 1 GHz processor and gyrometer. Adapted perfectly for mobility, it has a full-size USB port for hooking up other devices and a MicroSD slot for passing data.
