The Multimedia Internet device that goes by the name of SmartQ V7 should now be ready for order. It isn’t cheap, based on the lack of information on storage. Since SmartQ isn’t announcing the capacity, we assume users will have to depend on microSD cards to store files. The 7-inch touchscreen tablet has 1080p video support, OTG and WiFi. Other types of connectivity include Bluetooth and HDMI out. Now, why don’t I think that a $220 pricing is too much for such a well-featured device? Well, there are cheaper smartphones, and they can make calls. The other noteworthy ommission is the absence of a user interface demo. We know the V7 uses an ARM11 processor, but which OS is it running on? The Zol article three sets of possibilities (options): Ubuntu Linux, Windows CE 6.0 or Google Android. I’ll believe it when they send us a demo video.
