Carphone Warehouse Offering UK’s Lowest Prices on Tablets This Christmas

LONDON, November 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –

Tablets have become more and more popular, and currently out sell PCs. If there was
one thing that tech analysts criticised about tablets, it was that the prices were a
little too steep for many. This is what Carphone Warehouse is hoping to combat with their
UK’s lowest price on tablets Christmas campaign.

One of the most popular tablets featuring in Carphone Warehouse’s campaign is the
Amazon Kindle Fire. Designed to be portable, it features a high resolution HD display,
which is perfect for videos, eBooks and web browsing. The built-in Wi-Fi connectivity
makes it easy to connect to Wi-Fi hotspots or to your home network, and also means you can
access the Amazon app store. Here there are over 50,000 apps, with everything from games
and videos to themes.

The hardware inside the Amazon Kindle Fire is also pretty powerful. The dual core
processor is very capable, enabling you to run 3D games, and even open multiple apps at
once without experiencing juttering or laginess. It’s also super-efficient, so you’ll get
a battery life of up to 9 hours, plenty of time to jump on Facebook, send a few emails or
stream some YouTube videos every night.

When it comes to price, the Amazon Kindle Fire began life as a sub-GBP150 tablet.
Black Friday resulted in Amazon dropping the price, but if you want the Kindle Fire
straight away without having to wait for the postman, Carphone Warehouse
[http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/tablets/categories/kindle-fire ] stores are offering the
tablet for a market leading GBP98. Considering the quality screen, light weight, small
size and powerful dual core processor, it’s a real bargain.

With great deals on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GBP147, with GBP30 cashback) and the
larger iPad with Retina display (or iPad 4) for just GBP389, the Christmas campaign at
Carphone Warehouse could lead to many with brand new tablets waiting to be opened come
Christmas day.
