Allgo introduces $50 Android tablet prototype

  • Tweet
  • Email

Sure, the government of India thinks it can produce a Google Android tablet that will cost just $35 (when you order a million units), but Indian company Allgo has designed a prototype that is says could be built for just $50 — without requiring a government-sized order to bring costs down.

Of course, a tablet that costs $50 to build will probably carry a higher retail price. But that’s still pretty cheap.

Allgo has actually been showing its technology off for a while. In June, we caught a glimpse of a similar solution that could be built for just $15 — except that price didn’t include the LCD display. But Allgo’s new “Stamp” prototype includes a 7 inch, 800 x 480 pixel resistive touchscreen display.

According to Silicon India, the cost would be about $50 per unit to produce 10,000 units. Want to bring the price down to $40? Easy. Just produce a million units.

You can check out a demo video of the stamp tablet in action after the break.

    How much would they cost if the production run was 5 billion units?

    well, well ….. not really impressive. i have a noname chinese gps with comparable specs running a hacked win5 plattform for a good 12 month now … means you can run a real office suite (softmaker office) and inking whereas this android stuff can’t. … bought only for 50 dollar.
    problem is: it is not really usable for school, with no printing funktions and so on. one needs a real computer aside rising costs considerably again.

    I filmed this presented by AllGo in June, they announced it as $35 tablet system in my video, which I think inspired the Indian government to announce the project: http://armdevices.net/2010/07/23/indias-35-tablet-is-based-on-my-video/
