Product Information

On Windows 8, there is an "Android" device shown at the bottom (in the task bar), but the tablet doesn't appear as a drive.

Thanks to its powerful dual-core processor the ARNOVA 90 G4 is able to bring you great games and with its open GL 2. This figure even surpasses devices such as Motorola's Xoom MZ616 or Acer's Iconia Tab A200 and comes quite close to Asus' Transformer Prime with 1649 points. Web browsing is slow and the gaming experience is poor too, with Angry Birds just about chugging along.

Active speakers or headphones are also recommended for the Arnova 10b G2 if you put value on better sound.

But, if you're looking for an Internet tablet, then its sluggish performance, unresponsive touchscreen and lack of multi-touch support will soon grate.
