Lava Etab Xtron - Specification and review


 Lava has launched its new tablet named Etab Xtron. This tablet offers features that no other tablet in the same price range does. It is available in the Indian market, for Rs. 6,499.M37NEDWZKXNJ


The Lava Etab Xtron runs Android 4.1 - Jelly Bean, the latest iteration of the operating system, and doesn't include any custom skin.Etab Xtron is powered by a 1.5GHz Cortex A9 dual-core processor. It has a 7-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1024 x 600. While the IPS panel will give the tablet decent viewing angles, the resolution seems rather low, as is expected from a tablet with this price, and the aspect ratio is a bit odd. The tablet has 1GB of RAM to help its performance.

Specifications :

Operating System      :     Android v4.1

Processor                  :     1.5GHz Dual-Core Cortex A9

Memory                     :     1 GB DDR3 RAM

Display Size               :     7-inches

Resolution                  :     1024×40

Front camera              :     2 MP HD

Dimensions (mm)        :     131 x 184 x 11.5 mm (350 g)

Battery Capacity         :     3500mAh

Inbuilt Memory           :     8 GB (Expandable Up to 32 GB)

Lava Etab Xtron tablet which is decent compared to other 7-inch budget tablets in the segment,looks compact yet sturdy. The touch sensitivity is good. The screen brightness is average, and although  it's reflective to some extent, visibility under sunlight is not bad.

The Etab Xtron is one of the few tablets that runs Jelly Bean. Unlike the Nexus 7, the tablet's onscreen controls are on the bottom left instead of the centre

The other major feature that Jelly Bean brings is 'Google Now', a voice based information assistant and an extension of Google search. You can ask questions and the tool returns answers or search results. It uses 'cards' which are essentially small boxes that offer different sets of information ranging from weather forecast, directions, traffic information, scores, appointments, and currency conversion, among others.

We're not sure if the tablet will get updated to Jelly Bean 4.2, but if it does, features like multi-user accounts  and lock-screen widgets would also come to the tablet.

The tablet comes with a 2-megapixel front-facing camera. The pictures  quality with the front camera, indoors, were decent. The camera does a decent job when used for making video calls over Skype or other video chat apps.

The tablet comes with a 3,500 mAh battery and i am not very happy with the backup that it offered, specially when playing multimedia files.

Good

    Runs Jelly Bean
    Good performance
    Decent design

Bad
    Battery life could have been better
    No Bluetooth


The Lava Etab Xtron is a decent tablet. At a price of Rs. 6,499, it offers a good package with decent hardware, compact form factor, a screen that supports wide angled viewing and the latest version of Android, Jelly Bean. It's a good value for money proposition. It's also interesting to look at if you're looking for an e-reader or for a device for browsing the web.

Best Apps to Make Free Voice Calls

Almost all operators are increasing their voice call tariffs and remaining are expected to follow suit. In some cases the tariff has gone up by 100 percent while in others carriers are reducing free minutes and other benefits. This could offset most users’ monthly bills, especially for those who prefer making voice calls rather than relying on text messaging.

 However, there are many free options available to replace traditional voice calling with apps that let you do the same over an Internet connection.Here is a list of some apps that could help you cut your monthly cellphone bill drastically if you have access to a Wi-Fi hotspot or have a good 3G data plan.


Skype:



Frankly, you cannot have such a list without mentioning Skype. After all it was THE app that started it all. Skype it is available on a multiple platforms – iPhone, Android, and Windows Phone. You can buy Skype credit and directly call your contacts on their phone numbers, but if you have friends on Skype, then you can experience the best video calling service in the world for free.


Viber:



Viber is a mobile phenomenon. It’s the type of service that makes executives from telecom operators squirm. The app itself replicates a dialer that syncs to social networks and picks up contacts who are also on Viber. Then you can use it to call your friends on Viber for video or plain voice calls. The best part it works purely on data, but if you have a contact who is not on Viber then you can also make a normal cellular call from the app itself.


WeChat:
 
On the face it, WeChat comes off as a What’s App rival, but there is more to the app than the messaging element. It has some cool voice messaging features built-in so you can either hold on to talk button and send voice message to your friends or even use the new video chat feature for real Skype-like video chats. You can even shut off the video bit so it can be a pure voice call.

Tango:




For the longest time the biggest paradox on Windows Phone was the absence of the Skype app, which was owned by Microsoft. Tango was the de facto solution, and it was always a very good solution. Heck, it’s still a solution for video and voice calls on Windows Phone, Android and iPhone. And it’s free.

Voxer:


 

Voxer is not your average calling app. Actually, it is not a calling app, its a walkie-talkie of sorts. It’s not very efficient all the time because one has to record a message and then wait for a the message but the user experience is fantastic. It’s really fun app and works over Wi-Fi and 3G. Like most of the others, it too is free.
