Acer officially took the wraps off two upcoming budget tablets at Taipei today called the Iconia One 7 and Iconia One 8, each of which are successors to the previous Iconia models. These models may have been hinted at through leaks earlier this week and new details now suggest MediaTek SoCs instead of Atom CPUs.
The Iconia One 7 (B1-760HD) will have a 7-inch 720p display with a quad-core MediaTek MT8127 SoC and ARM Mali-450 GPU, 1 GB RAM, 16 GB eMMC, MicroSD reader, and front and rear cameras. Meanwhile, the 8-inch Iconia One 8 (B1-830) will use an unspecified 8-core MediaTek SoC and 32 GB eMMC. Both models will ship with Android Lollipop.

When I'm not managing day-to-day activities and US review articles on Notebookcheck, you can catch me following the eSports scene and the latest gaming news.
