The tablet space is available in gray and silver version.

Moreover, A7 processor is accompanied by an M7 coprocessor which is designed to constantly check mobile sensors, the accelerometer, gyroscope and compass. Specifically can communicate in real-time to applications if you are stopping, are on the move, drive, walk, run, etc. .
