Milkyway Tablet Specifications And Features

The configuration should give the tablet enough processing power for everyday tasks like browsing the internet, consuming video content, attending online classes or workshops, scanning documents with the rear camera, and running educational applications.
Regarding optics, the Milkyway tablet has an 8MP rear camera and a 3MP front camera. Powering the device is a 5,100 mAh battery that charges via a USB-C port. Connectivity options on the tablet include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G, 4G VoLTE, GPS, and the USB-C port we mentioned above. Users also get a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Although these features will be free for the first year, the company will launch different subscription models next year.

Since the tablet isn’t available in a retail marketplace yet, there’s a good chance it will first be available to educational institutes or distribution centers. On the Government e-marketplace platform, the tablet is available for Rs. 14,200 for a minimum quantity of 10 units.
