The Toshiba Encore Mini was officially announced today as the cheapest tablet to date to run Windows 8.1. The slate was developed following a "close" collaboration with Microsoft, and it’s obviously the Redmond giant’s attempt to compete with the army of ultra-affordable Android tablets available all around the world.
The tablet has been priced at just $199, and can be purchased through Toshiba's online store and through major retailers. This price is possible as the tablet runs a special version of Windows called, "Windows 8.1 with Bing" which is given to OEMs at an affordable cost. For the end user, you still get a full Windows experience which includes a 1-year subscription to Office 365 Personal and 1 TB (one terabyte) of OneDrive storage space
The Encore Mini features a 7 inch display with a 1024 by 600 pixel resolution, 16GB of internal storage which can be expanded through microSD, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, a 2 MP rear camera, a VGA front-facing camera “with microphone” and a 1.83 GHz Intel Atom Z3735G processor with 1GB of RAM. Currently only the white version of the tablet is available, with no word on other color availability.
Would you consider purchasing a Windows tablet for $119 or would you rather purchase an Android tablet instead. Remember that since this runs Windows 8.1, you can run any Windows desktop or Modern app.
