It is a premium tablet made by Webs-Den EGI USA. Rear is off-white colour with matte finishing and sides are with metallic finish. Body is made of plastic. This is a dual SIM tablet with overlapping SIM slots, you need a micro SIM and a normal SIM. Both SIM slots support 3G.

Power button is on the right, micro UBS port at the bottom, volume rocker are on the left side and 3.5mm audio jack is placed on the top. This is the first tablet that I have seen that comes with a removable battery. Though there are dual speaker vents on the rear, there is only one speaker.

The Octavia sports a 7 inch LTPS screen with (WUXGA) 1920 x 1200 pixels resolution. When you power on the tablet for the first time you can immediately feel the screen quality, colour reproduction is very good. Touch is smooth, responsive and viewing angles are great. It comes with a factory fitted screen guard.

Gaming
I installed the Asphalt 8 and MC5 (Modern Combat 5). Both games got installed on the internal storage. Games are playable but you may experience very mild lags probably because of the screen size and resolution.

Camera and Entertainment
The rear camera is using Carl Zeiss lens and is of 13MP resolution. Front camera is 5MP. Rear camera can shoot FHD videos and there is LED flash for low light photography. Camera quality is pretty good, check the sample images at the end.
