Tesco\u2019s recently launched 7 inch Hudl looks set to provide some competition in the tablet market this Christmas. This budget priced Android Jellybean 4.2.2 could prove to be a hit with consumers looking for a sharp display and good storage at a low price.<\/p>\n

Tablets have been growing in popularity in the UK and more than 20 million Brits use tablets as a primary or secondary device. Apple is still the leader of the tablet pack and they look set to release the iPad 5 and iPad Mini 2 at the end of October just in time for Christmas. Tesco has now finally entered into the tablet market with the Hudl<\/a>, which features 16GB of storage and a scratch resistant High Definition display.<\/p>\n

Hudl design and display
\nIn terms of body design the Hudl is more in line with Amazon\u2019s Kindle Fire HD than the iPad Mini. The body is solid plastic with a rubber back and slightly thick edges. The body design does make the Hudl feel robust and if you like your tablets to feel slightly weighty then the Hudl comes in at 370g.
\nThe 7-inch display has been designed mainly for landscape viewing, which is ideal for browsing the web, reading digital books, watching movies or playing games. The 242ppi almost matches Apple\u2019s iPad 4 when it comes to pixel density although colour reproduction could be better. The HD screen resolution comes in at 1440 x 900, which does beat Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Tab 2 7\u201d and the 2012 Google Nexus 7 although falls short of the latest Nexus 7.<\/p>

\nInside the Hudl
\nThe storage capabilities of the Hudl are impressive for a budget model of this size. The Hudl offers 16GB as standard and this memory can be extended to 48GB with microSD cards. The Quad-core 1.5GHZ processor is fairly fast and users can expect up to nine hours of battery life, which is pretty much the norm for 7\u201d android tablets. The stock Android OS means Hudl users will be browsing on Google Chrome and viewing web content is excellent thanks to the HD screen.
\nHudl users will also have direct access to Tesco\u2019s digital services including Blinkbox movies, television and music via the dedicated launcher button.<\/p>\n
