Intel Officially Introduces 7-Inch “Studybook” Tablet
Some predicted that Intel’s new StudyBook would be overpriced and underpowered after the company announced the new product in April of 2012. And they were right. The original price of around $200 was now transformed into $700 which is bad for budget conscious customers or users. There are some bad comments about this new device from Intel like outdated CPU, weak battery, and running on an unfriendly operating system.
The new StudyBook is powered by a single core 1.5 GHz Atom Z670 CPU running on Microsoft Windows 7 Home Edition. It has a 7-inch screen with 1024 x 600 screen resolution, 32 GB storage, and 1 GB RAM. It also includes 2 2-megapixel VGA cameras. The reason why they say that it is running on an unfriendly operating system is because Microsoft Windows 7 Home is not designed to run on tablet computers unlike Windows 8.
