Now, hold your horses – HMD hasn't officially announced anything yet. But the ever-reliable leaker @smashx_60, who seems to have the inside scoop on all things HMD, has spilled the tea on the Tab Lite's specs, potential price, and even shared a sneak peek photo!
What We Know (Or Think We Know) So Far:
- Design: Think classic Android tablet vibes. Rounded edges, slightly thicker bezels – nothing fancy, but hey, we're all about that budget-friendly life.
- Display: An 8.7-inch IPS panel, putting it in the same size ballpark as the iPad mini (though probably not as sharp, with a rumored resolution of 1,340 x 800 pixels).
- Under the Hood: Don't expect top-of-the-line performance, but the Unisoc Tiger T610 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM should handle everyday tasks just fine.
- Storage: 64GB onboard, which is decent for the price, and you can always pop in a microSD card if you need more space.
- Battery Life: A beefy 5,500mAh battery with 18W charging? Sign us up! This thing should last for ages.
- Camera: Not exactly a photography powerhouse, but the 8MP rear and 5MP front cameras will do the trick for video calls and the occasional snapshot.
- Price: Here's the kicker – @smashx_60 claims it'll be priced around €149 for the 4G version. That's crazy affordable!
- Colors: Black, blue, and pink are rumored to be the options at launch.
Should You Be Excited?
If you're looking for a cheap and cheerful tablet for browsing, media consumption, and light gaming, the HMD Tab Lite could be a serious contender. It's not trying to be the most powerful tablet on the block, but at that rumored price, it could be a real steal!
Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the (hopefully) official announcement!
