Acer America today debuts the Acer Iconia Tab A700 tablet with a premium 10.1-inch full HD 1080p display.
The
Acer Iconia Tab A700 presents high-quality images in a new level of
clarity and realism with a remarkable 1920 x 1200 resolution that
delivers 55 percent higher pixel density compared to 1280 x 800
displays. This results in sharper images and greater details in
everything from websites and text to photos and video. The bright and
detailed visuals are further enhanced by Dolby® Mobile 3 with
5.1-channel home theater surround sound capabilities.
Powered
by an NVIDIA® Tegra™ 3 quad-core processor and running Android 4.0, the
Acer Iconia Tab A700 delivers industry-leading performance and
responsiveness for running multiple apps, smooth HD video, fast web
browsing and console-like gaming. The tablet can be used as a central
part of a digital life; it can be connected to other displays via the
HDMI port, and to other devices via its micro-USB port for syncing and
transferring files. Plus, consumers can enjoy additional content with
the convenient MicroSD card slot.
"Consumers
have embraced their tablets as a mobile hub for their daily lives, and
the full HD display on the Acer A700 will give customers a fresh new
perspective on the apps, games and digital media they enjoy," said Paul
Tayar, director of product marketing for connected devices, Acer
America. "Customers looking for a no-compromise tablet will get the
features and performance they want in the new Acer A700."
Visually Stunning Display Paired with Incredibly Rich Sound
The
Acer Iconia Tab A700's full HD 1080p LED backlit display gives
customers a visually rich experience; 1080p videos and photos look more
vibrant and realistic, and social media networks and online shopping
will be enjoyed with more clarity and precision. Many of the most
popular Android apps – such as 3D games, reading and digital media –
already support 1080p, so they can be enjoyed in greater detail on the
new Acer A700 tablet.
Ensuring an
optimal viewing experience, the Acer A700's display has a 16:10 aspect
ratio, 800:1 contrast ratio and a wide 178 degree viewing angle. Plus,
the display is a 10-point touch capacitive screen, so it delivers a
remarkable degree of accuracy and responsiveness.
In
addition, customers can share video stored on the Acer Iconia Tab A700
on other monitors, displays, and TVs via the tablet's built-in micro
HDMI port. The new tablet also supports dual-displays, so customers can
share videos and photos on an external display. Plus, the tablet can be
used as a console to play the latest games on a TV.
The
A700's display is complemented by the tablet's impressive sound
capabilities. It comes with Dolby Mobile 3 and is 5.1-channel surround
sound ready, so it can be connected via HDMI to an external sound system
for a high-fidelity audio experience. The excellent audio can also be
enjoyed through the stereo speaker.
The
sound recorder captures audio in a variety of environments. Students
can record lectures and panels discussions, since the Acer Iconia Tab
A700 will record multiple voices while suppressing background noises.
While in concert mode, the tablet can record sound from further away
such as a children's school performance. Sound capture is also improved
for video conferencing, so friends and families feel like they're nearly
face-to-face.
NVIDIA Tegra™ 3 Quad Core Processor, Features for Performance, Power
The
Acer Iconia Tab A700 features the industry-leading NVIDIA Tegra™ 3
Mobile Processor that provides a unique Super 4-PLUS-1™ Quad Core CPU
design with a fifth Battery Saver Core.
The
processor dedicates up to all four cores to demanding tasks such as
watching video and playing next-generation graphics-intense mobile
games. Plus, the high-performance 12-Core GeForce NVIDIA GPU delivers
incredibly detailed graphics and imagery, while the tablet's full 1GB of
RAM(2) contributes to its fast mobile performance. As a result, the
Acer A700 is incredibly responsive, delivering smooth video playback,
fast navigation and console-quality gaming on-the-go, with performance
rates that are 2.6 times faster and graphics that are three times faster
compared to previous generation processors.
The
fifth Battery Saver Core handles less demanding activities, ultimately
using less power and improving battery life. Plus, the 9800 mAh battery
extends the tablet's battery life for all-day usability of up to 10.5
hours of video playback, or nearly 8 hours of web-surfing(1). Customers
can use the integrated GPS and e-compass to enjoy location-based
services and maps. The tablet easily connects to Wi-Fi networks with
reliable Acer 802.11 b/g/n wireless technology.
Connections Make it Expandable, Feature-Rich

so customers have extra room to store games, photos, music and
videos.(2) Plus, additional content can be accessed from the Micro-SD
card reader that supports up to 64GB Micro-SD cards.(2) The micro USB
2.0 port can be used to transfer data and files on and off the tablet,
and can also be used to charge it.
The
Acer A700 has two integrated cameras: the 5MP rear-facing camera is
auto-focusing, and provides the ability to take snapshots while
recording HD video, while the 1MP fixed-focused front-facing camera is
great for video conferencing, as it features an improved zoom. Customers
can capture video and photos, enhance them on the go, and then
conveniently store them in Google+ and upload to other social networks.
Suite of Extras Boost Productivity
The
Acer A700 tablet comes with the apps that make it a productivity
booster. Polaris™ Office 3.5 allows customers to read and edit documents
on the go. The tablet also comes with Evernote, a personal assistant
that lets customers easily capture and save web pages, photos, ideas and
documents and then store them to the cloud for access from other
devices. Printing from the tablet is seamless with Acer Print, which is
compatible with 87 percent of brand name printers in the market and
supports a wide range of printing formats (doc, pic and browsers). In
addition, the tablet features integrated Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR (enhanced
data rate), so it can connect to a variety of other devices, such as
headsets and printers.
Intuitive Experience with Android™ 4.0, Acer Ring and clear.fi
Running
on Android™ 4.0 OS, the Acer Iconia Tab A700 delivers many benefits,
such as intuitive navigation, fast browsing, as well as enhanced app and
folder management options. The unique interactive Acer Ring interface
is a welcome addition to Android 4.0, as it can be customized by users
to launch favorite apps, programs and websites through a single
one-touch button. Additionally, the Acer Ring's screenshot feature can
be used to capture images of an app, web site and even photos from a
video conference.
The chassis'
soft-touch finish has a patterned texture that makes it comfortable to
hold. It easily fits in a purse, briefcase or book bag, as it weighs
