Aimed at all age groups, the light weight (389g) Reliance 3G Tab with a 2.0MP rear camera and a front camera will certainly make this tablet the most unique and compelling offer in the Indian tablet market. The Reliance 3G Tab is supported by Reliance’s superior 3G network across 333 Towns in 13 3G Circles to ensure an amazing customer experience. The device is priced attractively at Rs. 12,999 and further bundled with discounts on the monthly and annual data plans to enhance the value proposition.
With push email becoming more popular on the mobile phones, the Reliance 3G Tab provides a user-friendly email experience on it’s 7-inch screen for Business users. Moreover, bundled with ‘Documents To Go’, the Business users can now conveniently view and work with Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint and PDF attachments.
Set to appeal to the younger generation as well, the Reliance 3G Tab is an amazing device with the 7-inch form factor for Internet email on the go, social networking, video streaming, gaming etc. supported by Reliance Communications’ superior 3G network.
