13.10.2012 - Acer annuncia il tablet Iconia W700 con cpu Ivy Bridge e Windows 8

Acer America ha annunciato di recente il tablet Iconia W700, una soluzione equipaggiata con il nuovo Sistema Windows 8 di Microsoft, il cui hardware è stato selezionato e assemblato per dare il meglio proprio con il prossimo OS in arrivo dal gigante di Redmond.

Acer ha scelto tre modelli per il nuovo tablet, siglati Acer Iconia W700-6465, Acer Iconia W700-6691 e Acer Iconia W700-6607, i quali differiscono essenzialmente per la cpu ("Ivy Bridge" Intel Core i5-3317U 1.7GHz nei primi due casi e "Ivy Bridge" Intel Core i3-3317U 1.8GHz nel terzo) e per la capacità della unità SSD che implementa la memoria di massa (128GB nel primo caso e 64GB negli altri due).

I tre modelli sono equipaggiati con un display multi-touch Full HD (risoluzione pari a 1920 x 1080 pixel) basato su un pannello TFT LED backlit da 11.6-inch, il quale è gestito a sua volta da una GPU Intel HD Graphics 4000, che interagisce con 128MB di RAM in maniera dedicata e fornisce il segnale per una uscita micro-HDMI. La memoria centrale è invece implementata con l'ausilio di 4GB di RAM DDR3, mentre le connettività supportate sono Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n) e Bluetooth 4.0.

Il nuovo Iconia W700 ha un MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) per il mercato U.S. compreso nel range che va da $799.99 a $999.99, al variare dei modelli disponibili, mentre il lancio del prodotto, sempre nel mercato statunitense, avverrà simultaneamente a quello di Windows 8, ovvero il prossimo 26 ottobre.
