China-based ZTE has announced that it will make available the ZTE Light Tab II in the UK soon.

The 7-inch tablet, also known as ZTE V9A, would be the company’s first own-branded tablet available to UK consumers.

Priced at £235, the tablet, which will run on Android 2.3, or Gingerbread, weighing 402g comes along with a Qualcomm MSM8255 processor.

It will sport 4GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via microSD card, front facing 0.3MP camera, 3MP rear card, Wi-Fi, 3G connectivity, FM radio, among others.

ZTE Mobile Device Operations Director Wu Sa said ZTE plans to continue its progress in the UK, introducing ZTE branded consumer devices with key capabilities at reasonable prices.

"Our UK strategy is very much focused on providing quality devices – a factor which is apparent through our growth and development in the handset arena," said Sa.

The tablet PC will be available to pre-order from Clove for £235 from later part of this month or in the first week of March.
