We’re currently living in the Android era, where almost 6 out of 10 devices are running on the Android OS. The rest of the platforms include iOS, Windows and many more. A few years back, Microsoft has tried to set its foothold in the tablet market, by releasing its Windows 8 powered tablets and mobile phones. But, none of them have created any buzz, because people loved the features provided by the Android tablets and Smartphones, than the Windows 8 tab.

This time, they’ve tried to cut-down the prices drastically, making them more affordable for customers in India.
P.S: Recently, Micromax has luanched a new device named Canvas LapTab, which is a tablet-laptop hybrid, for a price of Rs.14,999.
