Due to the heavy competition in the tablet market every company is trying to sell their product and make their own space. In this competition Reliance tied up with ZTE Corporation, a Chinese company and launched Reliance 3G, ata shocking price of Rs. 12,990. Any smart phone comes in the range of 10,000-25,000, but the Reliance 3G at such a price seems to be attractive. After paying 12,990 you get a bundled 3G SIM, which seems worth the money.

Design
The 7 inch touch screen of the tablet seems to be very attractive; however the fingerprint and smudged magnet are a drawback. Even after many wipes, it is difficult to keep the display clean and spotless for long. The display performs well enough under the sun and is bright which makes it comfortable to work on. Watching HD videos is interesting and not troublesome as it has 480X800 pixels and has a WVGA resolution. The touch sensitivity is a little slow and could have been better.
The processor clock at 800MHz is an under-powered compared to other tablets, however is surprises with its good speed when running a number of applications at the same time. The tablet comes with 512 Mb of RAM, and is we have around 200-300 Mb of free RAM, when we are not running any application, the memory management is pretty good.

The apps may run a slow but proper management will give a good experience.

Finally
Reliance Tab is a great option with the Reliance 3G plans. For those hoping for a super fast tablet, it can be a disappointment for them. It can definitely handle various applications but fails to give the zing factor.
One can surely go for the tab as you get 5GB monthly data card for one year just at a price of Rs. 19, 990 which is worth every single penny.
