Russian company-manufacturer of mobile devices Inoi this fall will release a tablet based on OS Sailfish, which was called Inoi T8. This is reported by Vedomosti. Sailfish Mobile OS was developed in 2016 by the Open Mobile Platform company (OMP), after which it entered the register of domestic software. In March of this year, Rostelecom gained control over weapons of mass destruction.

At the moment, the cost of the new device is unknown. True, there is information that the tablet will relate to the average price category, that is, from 10,000 rubles. up to 25 000 rubles The iPad for schoolchildren is in the same price category. However, unlike the Apple tablet, the Inoi T8 is focused on the wholesale market, mainly on state-owned companies. However, if you want to buy a tablet for personal use, you can without any problems.

Technical characteristics of the gadget is very modest, it is far from the most productive system. So, Inoi T8 is equipped with an 8-inch display with Full HD resolution, processor MTK8735W with a frequency of 1.3 GHz, 2 GB of RAM and main memory 16 or 32 GB.

Here there is one important point: the Sailfish operating system does not work with applications from other OS, so that tablet buyers can only use pre-installed software. This is a significant drawback, because the applications under Sailfish are not created so that a lot. The choice is very limited, and there are simply no analogues of many programs for Android or iOS.

In the future, Inoi plans to fully switch to the development of devices for Android. Moreover, the new Inoi 6 Lite smartphone with a 5.5-inch display, an MTK6580 processor and 1 GB of RAM is already on sale. Its OS is Android, not Sailfish.
