Toshiba 7.7-inch mystery tablet hands-on pictures: Compact OLED beauty

Toshiba’s name was mysteriously absent from the list of MWC 2012 attendees this year, but the company did manage to discreetly show off some new hardware at Nvidia’s booth. As you might expect given the real estate, the yet-unnamed tablet runs Nvidia’s Tegra 3 processor, so it games like a champ. As you may not expect, the 7.7-inch screen is actually OLED, making it one of the larger OLED models we’ve seen along with Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 7.7 (which actually launches on Verizon today). Besides the ultra-vivid OLED screen, the 7.7-inch display size lends itself nicely to gaming since your thumbs can easily reach all parts of the screen, and it’s quite thin and lightweight. Full specs were not available, but judging by the quality of product at MWC, we’re guessing we’ll hear more from Toshiba on this one shortly.

One of the best budget phones just got even better

Phone deals feel extra sweet when they involve a discount on an already great value phone. That’s the case with the Google Pixel 7a which is currently on sale at Amazon for just $349. Usually priced at $499, it’s even better value while it’s $150 off. It’s unlikely to stay this price for too long and it’s already proving popular, so if you want to get in on the action, do so now. If you’re not certain, take a look at what we have to say about it below.

Why you should buy the Google Pixel 7a
The Google Pixel 7a is a big upgrade from its predecessor and while our review pointed out that its increased price was an issue, that’s no longer something to worry about while it’s on sale. One of the best cheap phones, it offers a lot of great features. One immediate thing to notice is its 6.1-inch OLED display. It’s a full HD screen with a 1080 x 2400 resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for durability. It also has a 90Hz adaptive refresh rate so you get smoother scrolling and a generally better experience when watching videos or playing a game.
