While the rest of the world is waiting with bated breath for Apple’s next-generation iPad to be released, it seems like the good folks down at China have decided to roll out a Shanzai version of the iPad, possibly to appease some users or perhaps to hop aboard the iPad bandwagon and profit from the iPad 3’s anticipation, but either way Shanzai or not, the specs of this particular tablet don’t appear too shabby.
Featuring a 9.7” IPS display with a screen resolution of 1024×768, the tablet will be powered by an A9 Cortex processor clocked at 1GHz with a mali-400 GPU and 1GB of DDR3 RAM on board. Based on its design it appears the tablet is a marriage between the iPad and the iPad 2’s design, and will feature slightly rounder edges and will be slightly thicker at 9.8mm. It sports a 2MP rear-facing camera and interestingly it runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Not too shabby for a supposed “knock-off”, right?
If you’d rather not look at this as a Shanzai product, it’s actually a pretty decent Android 4.0 tablet, but if you wanted to get your hands on it, we’re guessing you’ll be hard pressed to find this tablet outside of China. For more information, pop on over to Shanzaiben’s website.
