Gpad 701 Mimicks iOS UI
The Gpad 701 (whether related to the Gpad G10 or not remains to be seen), features a “quick press” button that will instantly transform your UI from the standard Android default to this funky imitation of the iPad’s UI – the iOS UI. The button is the Home key, so this is likely some customised launcher that is pre-loaded into all units which is a pretty nifty thing to include with what looks to be a fairly cheap China tab. The Gpad 701 runs Android 2.1 and sports the Telechips TCC8902 (720MHz) chip which means it should handle 1080p video with ease. The customised UI hints at greater devotion to the software side of things so this TCC Android implementation may actually surprise a few skeptics, such as me. It’s got 256MB DDR2, an 800×480 7-inch resistive touchscreen, and also has support for external 3G (WCDMA / TD-SCDMA / EVDO) internet access. Cool. It can play 3D games too (image after the break) – the TCC chip has hardware 3D acceleration – and overall may surprise some. Hopefully we’ll see videos of that custom UI in action soon.
