Wacom introduces various tablets on Windows and Android OS



Wacom has taken tablet PC market seriously. To capture more market share they have introduced two table PCs on two different operating systems- Windows and Android. These two versions are scheduled to appear at the Wacom eStore during mid-September to October.
The Windows 8-based tablet PC is called Cintiq Companion. However, Windows 8-based tablet PC will be released on two different versions and these versions will be divided based on storage capacity. One version will run on Windows 8 and it will come with a 256GB SSD (solid state harddrive) with a priace money of $2000. The second one will come with a 512GB SSD and Windows 8 Pro that will cost $2500.
Both the versions will have some common features. These devices will have 13.3-inch display that will support the resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. Other features include are an Intel Core i7 processor, Intel HD Graphics 4000, 8GB of RAM, two USB 3.0 ports, Wi-Fi, dual cam- an 8-megapixel camera in rear and a 2-megapixel camera in front side.
The Android-based tablet PC is dubbed as the Cintiq Companion Hybrid. Like the Cintiq Companion, it will also have 13.3-inch screen and 1920 x 1080 pixels in its display. Inside it will also have an Nvidia Tegra 4 processor with 2GB of RAM and Google Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean).
Wacom is going in a different way with the Cintiq Companion Hybrid. This will function as a traditional Cintiq when plugged into a Mac or PC, but will work as a stand-alone Android tablet when on its own. It will also come with two variants- 16GB of built-in storage and 32GB with respectively price tag of $1500 and $1600.
The most attractive feature of this device is that it will come with a stylus that can tolerate 2048 levels of pen pressure sensitivity.
