DESIGN
Acer Iconia W500 has a clean design although it has a heavy nature that makes you want to hold it less with your hands. The front of the device is occupied by the “Acer” logo at the bottom bezel and the “ICONIA TAB” logo at the top right corner of the top bezel. That’s where the detachable keyboard comes in. Its dimension is 189.92 x 275 x 16 mm (Height x width x thickness).
DISPLAY
Acer Iconia W500 has an impressively large screen display size. This provides an large platform for watching videos and playing games. Handling the crispness of texts and icons is the screen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Its screen display type is an LCD capacitive touchscreen.
CAMERA
The camera unit in this device was badly developed. Acknowledging the fact that the device is short of a front-facing camera wasn’t enough, the rear camera also has bad taste in quality. A sensor of 1.3 megapixels is what’s responsible for capturing images and recording images on the tablet. The rear camera is also short of a LED flash. The image production on the device is poor, and I’ll advise camera lovers not to consider getting this device because there’s certainly you’ll regret such an action.
PROCESSOR AND OS
What handles the powering of the device is a dual core processor that clocks at a speed of 1.0 GHz. That’s a slow processor speed, I must aver. Its processor make the AMD CPU. That’s not all, the operating system of the device is the Windows 7 OS.
STORAGE AND RAM
The internal memory compartment of the device deserves laurels. Its 32GB capacity not only takes care of storage of files and documents, but it can also be extended. With the aid of a micro SD card, the internal memory can be expanded up to 32GB. 2GB RAM is available to the device for slick multitasking and the smooth app running.
CONNECTIVITY
A 3.5mm audio jack and Bluetooth are accessible for connectivity on the tablet. It also uses Wi-Fi for connectivity. The Wi-Fi standard supported on the device is the Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n.
BATTERY
As the powerhouse of the tablet, a battery of 3,260mAh capacity is made available. Truth be told, the battery of the tablet is a replaceable one.
PRICE
Acer Iconia W500 sells for the price of Rs. 50,000.
