UK high-street fashion retailer Next has launched its 10 inch own-brand Android tablet computer. The tablet, which is currently available to purchase for £180 on the retailer`s online store, has baffled critiques struggling to understand why the retailer has opted for this product – tablets are emerging as a very popular computing platform but spectators will observe this new move with slight cynicism.
The UK based retailer, Next, offers exciting and quality fashion and accessories for men, women and kids together with a full range of homewares.
Features include:
- 10 inch WXGA LCD touchscreen display
- Google android operating system
- 8GB storage + cardreader
- Arm 11 processor
- WiFi, 2 x USB ports, microphone and headphone socket
- Operates in portrait and landscape
The brand distributes through three main channels: Next Retail, a chain of more than 500 stores in the UK and Eire; Next Directory, a home shopping catalogue and website with more than two million active customers; and Next International, with more than 180 stores throughout continental Europe, Scandinavia, Russia, the Middle East, India and Japan and an international website serving the USA and over 30 other countries worldwide.
