“The new Le Pan S tablet was designed from the ground up with the active, modern lifestyle in mind,” explains Bin Wang, GM of Le Pan. “In developing this new model, we sought to put together the best blend of hardware, software and design we could at a highly affordable price. I believe we have found that sweet spot with the Le Pan S.”

Le Pan S, powered by a low-power, high-performance dual-core Texas Instrument processor along with 1GB RAM, features a 9.7-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen multi-touch display with 1024-by-768 resolution, like the ultra-high-resolution display on the award-winning Le Pan II. The device also features Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n), Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, accelerometer, g-sensor, light sensor and a 2.0 megapixel front-facing camera. Support for HDMI (optional adapter required), and additional storage (optional Micro SD card up to 32GB) is available. A built-in high capacity lithium battery (6800 mAh) provides up to 7 hours of battery life on a single charge.

One of the few Android tablets on the market with Google Mobile Service (GMS) certification, the Le Pan S has gone through rigorous hardware and software testing by Google to ensure the quality of the product. With a GMS-certified tablet, users get access to the official Google marketplace, Google Play, with over 600,000 apps to date.
