Swipe has launched a new 7-inch tablet called the Swipe MTV Slash. We have earlier read about Swipe and MTV together launching the 6-inch smartphones. But this time, joining the on-going legacy of it's a smartphone or it's a tablet, Swipe is calling this new device a Fablet. With Nikhil Chinapa, the celebrated MTV VJ as the brand ambassador for Swipe, we have a few music channel-dedicated apps like MTV India - for exclusive access to all MTV shows, blogs, videos, web shows, buzz, photos and downloads and Hottie - the show provides a peek into the Splitsvilla contestants across five seasons. coming right out of the box with Swipe MTV Slash. Launched in India at a price of Rs. 9,499, the device is available through online retailers right away.
This Swipe MTV Slash tablet features a 7.0-inch display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels and is powered by a 1GHz dual-core processor with 1GB RAM. Running atop the latest Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, this fablet brings in support for dual SIM (GSM+GSM) and dual standby. Alongside a 4 GB of internal storage which can be expanded up to 32GB via TF (transflash) card, users will get to use a 5.0-megapixel camera at the back accompanied by a flash in addition to a front facing VGA camera. The dimensions of the device are 188x108x9.4mm and it weighs around 290 grams. Getting booted up by deriving its power from a 3,000mAh battery, this fablet features include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPRS, 3G, G-Sensor, Google, FM Radio with recording.
Talking about MTV Slash, Aditya Swamy, EVP & Business Head, MTV India, says, "Super performance at a super price - that's what young people want and that is exactly what the MTV Slash fablet is. After a very successful start to our partnership with Swipe Telecom, we have now moved to a brand + content leverage." "Slash now comes fully loaded with the MTV experience and is embedded across the MTV eco system," he added. Though the technical specifications of the MTV Slash tablet are nothing of a turn-on, it's the MTV quotient that the Swipe founders think should get the tablet going in the over-crowded Indian tablet-phablet market.
Popular MTV VJs Nikhil Chinapa said, "I am a gadget freak and I am constantly looking out for new phones and other gadgets. While there are many existing brands in the country, what will set MTV Slash apart from the competitors are the MTV applications. We want the youth, the MTV generation to get hooked on to this fablet." Like we said earlier, though the phone is right now available to be bought at Swipe e-store and other leading online portals like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Infibeam and eBay, it is going to be shorty launched across 10,000 retail points. Will you go looking for this tablet-cum-fablet? Let us know.
