Expected Demand for Nokia T21 Tablet in the Budget Segment

The leadership of Nokia is clearly tired of making the same mistakes in conquering the premium device market. This is evidenced by the positive sales growth dynamics in the budget segment. People are cautious about Nokia products and prefer only inexpensive brand items. The manufacturer played on this. The Nokia T21 tablet is expected to be released at the right price point with sought-after technical specifications. Naturally, with a cool and large screen to attract the maximum number of buyers to the product.

Regarding the chipset, it’s clear that this is far from a gaming tablet. Tiger T612 is comparable to Snapdragon 680. At least, that’s what brand enthusiasts say in reviews. Although, in AnTuTu, Snapdragon scores higher (264k versus 208k for Tiger). Plus, T612 has better heat dissipation. Overall, it’s unclear why Nokia chose this chip.

There are also questions about the amount of RAM. Only 4 GB. Considering the operating system takes about 1.5 GB for itself. On the other hand, the price is very attractive for a 10-inch branded device.

 

The manufacturer announced the presence of the proprietary OZO technology for creating surround sound in the speakers. But they did not mention the camera module. Which seems very strange. After all, all tablet manufacturers first boast about the quality of photo shooting.
