In recent weeks، we’ve seen a new range of low-cost Windows devices being announced، including the $199 Windows 8.1 EeeBook from ASUS، and a $119 7-inch tablet from Toshiba، the Encore Mini.
The new Windows Slide WQ32 tablet from Indian brand iBall isn’t quite as low-cost as those devices، but it is one of the most affordable Windows tablets to feature integrated 3G connectivity.
Priced at Rs.16،999 INR (roughly $280 USD)، the device also includes:
The WQ32 also comes with a free one-year Office 365 Personal subscription، which includes 1TB of OneDrive cloud storage for a year too.
iBall currently offers a range of Android handsets and tablets، as well as feature phones، but this first step into Windows territory could potentially pave the way for future devices، perhaps including a Windows Phone.
iBall’s fellow Indian brands Micromax and XOLO have already launched their first Windows Phones (and the latter has also released a Windows 8.1 tablet)، while Karbonn Mobiles is expected to announce three new Windows Phones in the coming months.
