Another $199 Quad-Core Tegra 3 Android Tablet… But The Nabi 2 Is For Kids

Looks like Google’s Nexus 7 isn’t the only $199 Tegra 3 quad-core 7-inch Android tablet. Fuhu Inc., makers of the kids nabi tablet, has now come out with the nabi 2 with some pretty decent specs.

  • 7-inch 1024×600 touchscreen
  • 1.3GHz NVIDIA Tegra 3 A9 Quad-Core Mobile processor
  • 8GB of storage memory
  • microSD slot
  • Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich
  • 2MP front camera (720p video capture)
  • microUSB port
  • miniHDMI port
  • 4,000mAh battery

Not too shabby, especially for a tablet made specifically for children from pre-K to 5th grade. The nabi 2 comes pre-installed with educational and child-centric entertainment apps, such as Spinlets+ Music (over 19 million kid-friendly songs), and Spinlets+ TV (streaming Saturday morning kids’ shows). You don’t get the Google Play Store (too mature for the target audience) but you get App Zone 2.0,  the “only curated App store made just for kids“. This app store contains over 500 real apps, like Fruit Ninja for example, that are hand picked by moms and dads. Of course, you could always sideload any apps if you really wanted to.

The nabi 2 is now available at  Wal-MartBest Buy, and Gamestop, and will be coming to Target and Amazon on July 22.

    While there’s no Google Play preinstalled on the Nabi 2, for the original Nabi people were able to sideload it. Also, for the Nabi 2 you can easily download the Amazon App Store.
