Sharp AQUOS Pad SHT21 -specs, features

The AQUOS Phone Zeta SH-02E was first with Sharp's new IGZO LCD technology a few days ago and it's been followed quickly by another device, the AQUOS Pad SHT21.

Unlike other cost-sensitive 7in tablets, the Aquos Pad features expandable microSDXC storage up to 64GB, from the initial 16GB internal offering. Both a front and rear camera are supplied, with the rear camera sporting a healthy 8-megapixel BSI sensor.

The tablet itself meets the IP5X rating for dust proofing and IPX5/IPX7 for water proofing. This means that under certain circumstances, with device holes plugged-up, the tablet can survive immersion in up to one meter of water and a blasting from water jets coming from any direction.

The Aquos Pad is reportedly driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 central processing unit with twocores operating at a frequency of 1.5GHz. Furthermore, users are provided with the above-mentioned IGZO touchscreen LCD (touch/pen input) that measures 7 inches in diagonal and has a native resolution of 1280-by-800 pixels.
