2014 promises to be the year which really blurs the
lines between phone and
tablet with
Chinese Android phones now being offered at sizes of around 7-inch.
Coolpad were the first to breach the 7-inch barrier with their Halo phablet earlier this month, now
Carpad are on the scene with the slightly smaller 6.95-inch Carpad T69
Max.
The
Max appears to look a lot like a slightly smaller iPad Mini and even has the easily recognisable iOS home button on it’s chin. The display itself is an LTPS, OTG panel with a FHD resolution of 1920 x
1080. The math is handled by a Mediatek
octacore processor running at 1.7Ghz, plus there is
2GB RAM, 16GB
memory and even SD
memory expansion.
The rest of the
device matches the hardware on similar
octacore phones including dual SIM support, USB OTG, Bluetooth, WIFI, GPS and a larger 4200mAh battery. The Carpad T69
Max will go on sale soon fro around $350.
