HP has made a bit of a reputation for themselves here, and around the world for releasing products with little, to no fanfare. Earlier this year their latest Chromebook update began selling in JB Hifi with no announcement, and now the HP 10 Plus, a 10″ Android Tablet has cropped up at JB Hifi as well.
The tablet is selling for $298 in JB Hifi stores or online, just $20 more than the asking price in the US, where it sells on Amazon for $279.99.
The tablet contains fairly decent, though not outstanding specifications with a FullHD resolution 10.1″ display and powered by a 1GHz Quad-Core ARM Cortex A7 processor, with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage with a microSD Card slot. The tablet has a 5MP rear camera and a 2MP front-facing camera and a 7700mAh Li-ion polymer battery.
The tablet comes with Android 4.4.2 and given the history of HP Android devices a full load of HP Android apps like media player, file manager and printer applications.
We haven’t heard anything from HP officially yet, but it does appear on their Australian website where you can purchase it for $299. So far JB Hifi is the only retailer listing the tablet but with HP’s reach, that could expand rapidly.
Does the HP 10 Plus sound like your next tablet?
