A new company called Winknet, has now launched the Winknet Wonder and Winknet Ultimate ICS based tablets. The Wonder is with 7 inch screen for a price of Rs. 7,995 and the Ultimate comes with 9.7 inch with a price tag of Rs. 14,995.

Winknet Wonder TWY100
This is a 7 inch tablet with 800×480 pixels resolution powered by AllWinner A10 CPU which Winknet claims can be clocked at up to 1.5 GHz. Allwinner A10 is not new, and we have seem many tabs powered by this chipset, and now manufactures are shifting towards Allwinner A13 chipset. Also all of the Allwinner A10 based tabs are clocked at 1.0 GHz and not 1.5GHz. This tab also houses the Mali 400 GPU.

Memory is 512MB (RAM), plus there is 8GB internal storage, HDMI port, external 3G dongle supported and Wi-Fi. This tab can play HD videos comfortably without lags.

Winknet Wonder TWY100 Key features, Specifications and price

  • Allwinner A10 1.5GHz cortex A8 + Mali 400 GPU.
  • 7 inch LCD with resolution 800×480 pixels.
  • ICS (Android 4.0).
  • 8GB internal storage and 512MB DDR3 RAM.
  • Wi-Fi, HDMI, external 3G support, G-Sensor, USB, 2D/3D support and microSD slot.
  • 1 Free movie, 20 audio songs and 10 video songs pre-loaded.
  • 5 point multi touch.
  • 3000 mAh Li-ion battery with usage time of about 5 to 6 hours.
  • Price Rs. 7,995.

Tablets with same hardware specs are available for a much lower cost at around Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,000. I wonder why the Winknet Wonder cost is so high?

Winknet Ultimate TWY300
The Ultimate is another model with a 9.7 inch IPS capacitive touchscreen display with resolution 1024×768 pixels. It has 2 cameras, a front VGA and a rear 2MP. Internal storage is 16GB with 1GB RAM and running on Android 4.0 (ICS) OS.

Winknet Ultimate TWY300 key features, specifications and price

  • Allwinner A10 CPU Cortex A8 clocked at 1.5GHz with Mali 400 GPU.
  • 9.7 inches IPS touchscreen with 1024×768 pixels resolution.
  • 16GB internal storage, 1GB DDR3 RAM and micro SD card support.
  • Android 4.0 (ICS).
  • Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, external 3G dongle support, G-Sensor, Full HD video, HDMI port, micro USB.
  • 10 point multi touch.
  • 8000 mAh Li-ion battery with usage time of about 8 hours.

Again the Ultimate seems too pricy; there is the Micromax Funbook Pro that easily competes with this tab.  The Winknet Ultimate does have some good unique features (Bluetooth, 16GB internal memory) but the price is still too high. Check out the official Winknet website.
