Compact tablet computers has always enjoyed relatively high demand. The reasons for this are many: first, is functionality (always useful to have at hand a device capable of performing multiple tasks); and second - small size (a display size of such devices is 7-8 inches, which allows you to carry them); third, the reasonable price (almost all the gadgets from this category are not more than 100-200 dollars).

In this article we will talk about one of these devices. It's called Acer Iconia B1, however, in the sale of this gadget you will not find. The reason is simple: the computer was introduced in 2014. During this time, its technical characteristics the device is obsolete and was replaced by new and improved devices.

In the article we present the characteristics of the tablet, will describe its capabilities and special difference from other similar devices. Also refer to reviews left by buyers and try to form some General conclusion about the device.

Acer Iconia B1

Package contents

Traditionally, electronic devices should start with the characteristics of the kit in which it comes. In the case of the Acer Iconia B1 is nothing special to mention impossible. The computer goes to classic collection: with the charger, consisting of a cable and adapter to connect to the network, the user's manual and warranty card, supporting the buyer in case of detection of any malfunction.

As noted by describing the Acer Iconia B1 reviews, this model is available in a white box with a picture of the device and standard markings Acer. Nothing special about it and not say everything, as in other computers.

Positioning

Generally speaking about how is positioning itself as the manufacturer, it can be noted that the price of its products takes up a middle place between the cheap Chinese tablets (such as Fly, TeXet, and others) and more expensive technology, developed by Samsung, Asus and similar brands. However, again, in addition to low cost and belonging to the famous manufacturer of computer equipment, model Acer Iconia B1 also boasts a rich filling that includes a GPS module and a Bluetooth transmitter. And in General its characteristics, the device is ahead of many competitors in the higher technical parameters, about which we will speak later in the article.

Appearance

In fact, describing the design of the model, it's hard to focus on any of the elements of the latter: so unprepossessing and ordinary it may seem. Stands out the appearance of Acer Iconia B1, except that by bright blue line on the piping. Without it - and this “baby” not to distinguish from the mass of Chinese phones with the most simple layout.

As noted in their feedback, the user device, the build quality of the tablet is quite high: the model is not “backlash” and almost does not emit any sounds in the process. The only thing you can pay attention to is punching the front panel of the gadget when pressed on certain areas. However, this move is hardly noticeable and much discomfort does not deliver.

Dimensions classic: around the screen (which we will characterize later) a thick frame of plastic, which is quite convenient to stay in if you put the tablet in one hand. Weight (320 grams) allows you to conveniently deal with it in the process of reading, watching movies, or “toys”.

The Body is plastic, but the quality of the material allows to speak about its durability and wear resistance. How to describe reviews, even after a couple months of intensive work with the tablet after purchase minor scratches hardly noticeable due to the special surface texture of the coating.

Navigation

Speaking about how the computer management, it is necessary to mention the classic set of “rocker” to change the volume keys unlock the screen, and system keys at the bottom of the display. All this is identical to the control system, used by other tablets, including the cheap Chinese models.

Device Speaker is on the back cover, in the lower part of the body. By the way, sounds Acer Iconia B1 clean and relatively loud. The hole is covered with a special protective mesh in order to avoid dust and sand.

Connector for charging the tablet placed in the lower part, while the hole for a headset mounted on the top face (the classic image). Next to the USB input you can see the hole for the memory card. Also in some reviews there are versions that have the empty space (designated, possibly under the SIM module, which the Acer Iconia B1 is not).

Display

The Resolution of the tablet not the biggest and is only 1024 x 600 pixels. Based on this feature, to count on a greater point density is not: it is 170 units per square inch. On the matrix, which reproduces the image here is also saved by replacing IPS (inherent in many cheap tablets) version based on TN technology.

Due to this, not to speak of as color saturation and wide viewing angles: it is enough to slightly tilt or rotate the device and it will seriously change the tone of the picture.

Acer Iconia B1 Talk

This drawback, however, kompensiruet a sufficiently high flexibility of the brightness setting. As evidenced by comments from users who bought the tablet Acer Iconia B1 the night, this figure can be lowered to a minimum that will not “blind” in the dark from bright light. At the same time, in bright sunlight, the situation is worsening: to provide a high level of illumination of the screen of the device.

Battery

The Main factor influencing the autonomy of the device and its ability to work on a single charge without additional connection to the power source is the battery capacity and the level of energy consumption. Regarding the first, you notice that the battery on the tablet has a capacity of 2710 mAh, which is relatively low (if we take into account the fact that most Chinese tablets come with a battery at 3000-4000 mAh).

Acer Iconia B1 723

Acer Iconia B1 723, except that partially rehabilitates the fact that the device is equipped with the most powerful and colorful display that does not require a considerable amount of energy. The end result have 5-6 hours of active surfing or just 3-4 hours watching HD videos on maximum brightness. Leader on energy efficiency and operating life, the device will not be called.

Connectivity

As noted above, the Acer Iconia Talk 723 B1 has a GPS module that distinguish it among similar cheap models produced in China. Just a couple of minutes the device can communicate with the satellite, which will give accurate information about where your gadget and how to get to the desired place.

As mentioned above, the SIM card in the tablet is not provided, so about 3G/4G mobile Internet will have to forget. A maximum device can be connected to a Wi-Fi network operating on a fixed basis.

Operational and physical memory

The Gadget, which we characterize in this article, can not boast a large amount of RAM, which would allow the device to operate faster and more smoothly. Here are all 512 megs, of which in continuous operation is available up to 200 MB. This, of course, is not enough to run any capacious (from the point of view of resource loading) apps, colorful games and other “difficult” program. Most likely, increasing the duration of use of a tablet, the speed of his system will fall, as it happens with all devices.

Acer Iconia B1 firmware

As for internal memory, the device has 6 GB of memory, of which 1 is dedicated to download applications and 5 to service user data. In addition, the device has a slot for a memory card, whereby the shared memory can be increased by another 32 GB.

Camera

Of Course, the technical characteristics of the tablet PC include this module as the camera and its description. However, simple customer hardly makes a choice in favor of a particular model for the reason that it has good opportunities for pictures, because all the plates have approximately the same bad camera settings. Is no exception and our tablet Acer Iconia B1. There is only one camera located on the front panel (right above the screen). As you can guess by the place of its location, it serves to create a modest (quality) selfie shots and also for video calling in "Skype" and similar programs. As noted by many users, for them the possibilities of this module enough. Use the same front camera for photographing large-scale landscapes, hardly anyone will.

Processor

Finally, we come to one of the most important modules in any electronic smart device processor. This is the heart of our gadget, which, in the case of Acer Iconia Talk 7 723 B1 has not the best indicators. Let's start with the fact that it is used in budget models MediaTek MT6517. Module works on two cores, each of which has a frequency of 1.2 GHz. A processor which, in principle, a quick user interaction with the device is paired with a graphic “engine” modifications VR SGX531.

Operating system

We have already informed you that the device was produced in far 2014. Of course, it was not considered the flagship model, on Acer Iconia B1 firmware was installed not the new one (even by those standards). Now this refers to the operating system Android 4.1.2 modification. We know her as one of the earliest in the line of the fourth generation. However, because the manufacturer has provided the possibility of the “updated”, it may well be that the gadget has already received 5 or 6 generation operating system.

Speaking about the interface of the shell, I should say that the developer has not worked on creating a custom look for your Acer Iconia B1 7”. It applies the classic theme from Android, so for those who have had experience with her, she seems really “native”.

Reviews

Since the tablet that we analyze was offered at a price of 120 dollars and was, thus, designed by the famous company-developer of computers, buyers rushed to order and its version of the compact, but interestingdevice. In this regard, to find the reviews of those people that have been able to see the gadget and experience it on your own experience, is not difficult.

Based on the feedback, we can draw several main conclusions. Home is the availability of a famous brand, where you actively focus buyers in their reviews. Most of them says that the gadget is worth the money that it exceeds the value of the characteristics and functions represented here.

At least, due to this, the Acer Iconia B1 (16Gb) is already profitable acquisition.

In addition, users praise the ability of the gadget and the overall quality of his work. Indeed, even in the way the materials are collected the body, we can draw conclusions about the quality of the device and its positioning. As for the functionality - and many here were pleasantly surprised by the GPS module and a good “iron”, based on which the tablet.

As for the negative characteristics, they belong to the screen, which is not sufficiently high image density, it is not the most accurate camera and, of course, to the battery, with the longest term “life”.

There are a number of negative reviews that are written about the termination of operation of the device after a certain amount of time. For example, it concerns situations where the gadget to function properly for about 4-6 months and then suddenly failed screen/sensor/computer speaker. Perhaps this is the Acer Iconia B1 Talk related to any particular party from the marriage. In General, most reviews on a “perfect” assess the machine and recommend it to everyone.

Insights

What about the device that we have presented in this article? I would like to mention its practicality. Yes, on a ratio of the parameters of “price” and “quality”, this gadget is clearly the leader for the entire segment of affordable tablets with 7-inch display. It is called reliable, easy to use and versatile, from the point of view of the application.

Acer Iconia One B1 770 can be called a great choice if you are looking for a tablet PC to your child (so that he does not “ruined” the more expensive device), and if you need just a gadget for surfing and occasional email check. Trust me, the best machine for you. This note reviews and with this we fully agree. Hold the device in their own hands, “play” with him for 10-20 minutes and you will understand what we mean. Acer managed to find the balance between build quality, cheap equipment and functionality. And, hopefully, the company will manage to maintain the same "balance" in their other products.

The Truth, of course, now you can buy, perhaps, a slightly used version of the gadget. New to the market there are more modern versions, however, their characteristic is a topic for a new article.
