BQ Aquaris M10 to hit the market soon
Canonical will soon launch its first Ubuntu tablet, the BQ Aquaris M10. This slate has been unveiled at MWC 2016 and will be sold via the BQ Store, but the date when it will hit the market is still unknown. Fortunately, there are no other secrets concerning this Linux-driven tablet powered by a quad-core MediaTek processor.
BQ Aquaris M10 has the following specs and features:
- Processor: MediaTek MT8163M
- Memory/Storage: 2 GB RAM; 16 GB internal storage and microSD support
- Display: 10.1-inch full HD multitouch
- Cameras: 3 MP front, 8 MP back
- Connectivity: WiFi, Bluetooth, micro HDMI, GPS
- Operating system: Ubuntu mobile with X11 apps, including GIMP and Firefox
- Weight/Thickness: 1.04 pounds; 0.32 inches
- Battery: 7280 mAh, embedded
According to various sources, Canonical will send test units to the press in April, so the consumers will probably be able to get theirs this spring as well. The price of a unit is $291 USD, and BQ will sell the Aquaris M10 in both Europe and the US.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
