[HOLYMOFO]

wait...... so is it going for retail @ 399 again in SG?

32gb wifi ver for 270USD is a little higher than prev gen pricing. i'm gonna re-consider

But I guess this slight price increase is still justifiable.

I'm pretty sure this is the only high DPI (~300) tablet in the 7-8" range right now. No one else has one yet, although I suspect there's a new Kindle Fire soon that will be of a similar resolution.

We are still unsure of how good that display will turn out.

An FHD IPS LCD with 300 cd/m² brightness.. Sounds good.

How about the colour, constrast and tone..

this make the ipad mini screen resolution even worse now..........last n7 vs ipad mini (720p to XGA)

now it's 1080p vs XGA?

granted, they maybe will have an updated ipad mini later as well so it's still not over yet..

but competition is good for consumer

even if LTE, i don't think the initial batch will be compatible with Singapore's band..

remember, sg radio band is different from US....

agree competition is indeed good for consumer. as long as u slap a apple logo onto anything also good. u dun say XGA. if ipad mini is VGA or even QVGA (320p) i-fans also say good

Seems like there could be LTE from this post here.
