Measuring 12.2 x 19.2 cm the Micromax Funbook tablet is comfortable to hold with one hand for long hours.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

Unlike the Amazon Kindle Fire the tab has a minimal weight so that it is recommended for people with weak wrists.

The protruding home, is like pimples on a teenager’s face. Android 4.0 is said to be a vast improvement over its predecessors and it is. The tab comes with a 1.22 GHz Cortex A8 processor with Dual Mali GPU to do the job well.

The sound output through the inbuilt speakers is not that much satisfactory. But being priced at Rs.6499/- it seems to be the best tab available at this price.

Being positioned as an education tablet, the Funbook comes preloaded with education apps. Micromax says that the 2800mAh battery provides with a browsing time of 5 hours. The device has a mini-USB port which seems strange from the usual socket chargers.
