Kogan beats Google to the punch with budget Android 4.0 ICS tablet

Melbourne, Australia, 28 May 2012 – Kogan today unveiled its aggressive entry into the Android 4.0 market with two brand new tablets priced at just $179 (8GB) and $199 (16GB).

The tablets feature Google’s latest Android OS, a bright 10” multi-touch screen and 8 hour battery life.

With a light, thin design, 2MP camera, HDMI output, and access to hundreds of thousands of apps, the Kogan Agora 10” Tablet powered by Ice Cream Sandwich is the best bang for buck in the world.

The Kogan Agora 10” tablet is designed in Melbourne, and available exclusively from www.kogan.com.

Ruslan Kogan said the new products are a showcase of the company’s goal to make the latest technology more affordable for everyone.

“In 2012, everyone wants to be connected through their favourite apps at all times. We’ve been working hard to bring the latest technology to everyone, not just those who can afford $800 for a gadget.

“We’ve listened to feedback from our first foray into Android tablets, which people said was priced exactly where they wanted it – a guilt-free way to get into tablet computing. However, Android 2.3 provided limitations that we’ve overcome with Android 4.0 ICS.

“While the new iPad is no doubt resolutionary, it does come with a comparatively hefty price tag. It’s also a closed system which which limits functionality. Our tablets gives people freedom through USB and microSD inputs.

“We want people to be able to experience a portable, powerful tablet and use the latest software for a fraction of the cost.

“With access to the brand new Google Play, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and video chat through Skype, more Australians will now be able to stay connected with their friends and the world using a highly versatile tablet,” Kogan said.
