Mozilla's own
operating system, Firefox
OS, can be found powering an array of
entry-level devices, but this is the
first time a
tablet sporting the browser-based
operating system has popped up.
There's also something which should make Chinese tech enthusiasts take pride in this project -- the
tablet will be powered by a
processor from
China's own
Allwinner! According to reports, a prototype running the Firefox
OS made its way online thanks to a
leak. Purported specification of the
device include a quad-core Cortex A7
Allwinner A31 processor,
2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, WiFi, Bluetooth and a 7000mAh battery, all of which sit beneath a 10.1-inch 1280 x 800 pixel screen.
What's also doing rounds is a word that suggest the
device will get an
InFocus branding; for those who don't remember, InFocus had a shot to fame thanks to the Xiaomi Hongmi rivaling
InFocus M310. What's heartening to know (if it comes out to be true, that is) is that the
tablet will be manufactured by China's OEM specialist,
Foxconn who's best known for producing components for Apple and Meizu. [Sources -
