192 - Govt raises the stake for Aakash IV, proposes decent features Mobile Indian

By Anil Satapathy, The Mobile Indian, New Delhi, July 02, 2013 


Not many tablets under Rs 5,000 come with the features that are proposed by the Government.

The Government of India has finally made public the proposed specification of the much hyped Aakash IV tablet and if the final product would be anything like that than it would be the best low cost tablet in the market.

As per the government notification, the tablet must have a 7 inch LCD display with "atleast” 800x480 pixels resolution. Also, the display should have minimum five point touch capacity. Most of the tablets under Rs 5,000 have such resolution.


Also, as per the government, the tablet should have the latest Android operating system. For instance, if it is launched now it should have Android 4.2.1 Jelly Bean version. But it does not end there as the government has also specified that the tablet should come with dual bootable (through external SD card) Ubuntu operating system.
