Hisense launches Sero 8, a Rockchip powered tablet for those on a budget

Dubbed Sero 8, the device is powered by the Rockchip RK3188T chipset, largely popular among Chinese tablet makers. The 8-inch screen on the tablet comes with a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution, which isn’t all that bad when you consider the pricing. The tablet is already available for £90, which translates to about $150.
