Micromax Funbook

From few weeks their was a excitement among people when micromax launched a tablet Micromax funbook , a cheap android tablet in India which is an icecream sandwich tablet and runs on android 4.0.has a brilliant 7.0 inch TFT capacitive touchscreen with resolution of 480 x 800 pixels.An educational tablet for students and general public of india.But it is actually what they say....So lets look what exactly this Micromax funbook is.


It looks like a Chinese tablet but it is more as micromax is still on the way but its handsets are selling like hot cakes because of their low price and maximum features.But this time they have thrown a tablet to  us named funbook.The first impression was very good and it came in a packaging that i have never seen.It is triangular in shape, with a hard cover and foam, securing the tablet. Another box contains the accessories. It comes with a charger, USB cable and OTG cable. No earphones or HDMI cables are bundled with it.When you first remove the tablet from the box, you will see the sheer beauty and how sleek and compact the Funbook is. So, the first impression was quite good for me. Micromax has used a glossy LCD panel, which can cause reflections on it in certain lighting conditions.
