In line with Souq.com’s strategy to enhance connectivity of users in the region, the Arab world’s favourite online shopping destination announced the availability of QTAB, a low cost, high value, tablet device. QTAB is available in black or white, runs on the Android platform, has as an 8-inch multi touch screen, 16 GB of inbuilt memory, an HDMI and USB port and full Wi-Fi connectivity, and a number of other high-quality specifications. It has also been designed with optimum audio and video capabilities to cater to the growing consumption of content through tablet devices.
QTAB has also been crafted and designed to work in the education sector, and is a perfect companion for reading and education through e-books. With the rising number of tablet users, and locally-available content in the UAE, QTAB is ideally placed to fill the gap for increasing demand for consuming such content, on an affordable, yet high quality, tablet device.
“With the launch of QTAB, we want to ensure that high quality access to mobile content through tablet devices is more affordable and not just exclusively available for those with higher-end devices,” said Ronaldo Mouchawar, CEO, Souq.com. “That’s why we made QTAB at an affordable price point but with features to match much more expensive devices.”
“The tablet market in the Middle East is overtaking the PC market, and Q3 sales figures show an upswing of over 208 per cent, according to IDC. Tablets on the Android OS account for around 72 per cent, and we are happy to add to this range with a ‘Designed in Dubai’ tablet,” Mouchawar concluded.
QTAB is available now for purchase across the GCC as well as Egypt, at the cost of AED499.
