Yesterday, PanDigital unveiled three new 7-inch Android tablets (Planet, Star, and Nova) and another tablet (SuperNova) is on its way.

These powerful new tablets feature Cortex A9 CPUs with embedded hardware 3D graphics. All three Wi-Fi-enabled devices feature 7-inch full-color touchscreen displays enclosed in a light weight, sleek, black housings with a brushed metal-look front bezel. 

The Pandigital Planet, Nova, and Star provide a superior customer experience through advanced features and functionality, The Planet and Star come with Android 2.2 and the Nova with Android 2.3. The tablets offer an excellent viewing experience with 7-inch full-color LCD displays. The Planet and Nova offer a 600×800 resolution, and the Star’s thinner width utilizes an 800×480 widescreen resolution and easily fits in one hand.

In addition to the back-lit Android buttons, the three devices each provide users with a sensitive ActiveTouch touch-screen interface with multi-touch support. Also, the orientation sensor automatically adjusts between portrait and landscape in most applications when they are tilted, and the 2-Axis Accelerometer is great for controlling games that need simultaneous steering and acceleration. 

The integrated memory (2GB for the Planet and Star, 4GB for the Nova) lets you store hundreds of books, apps, movies, music and more. In addition, the built-in MicroSD card reader accepts up to 32GB memory cards for virtually unlimited storage. The built-in mini-USB On The Go (OTG) port provides a way to connect directly to a computer for easy file transfers and can also be used to re-charge the internal battery.

Each of the tablets has a compact and sleek design measuring around 5-inches wide, 7 ½-inches high and 1/2-inch deep, and each weigh less than 14 ounces, making them extremely portable. All three tablets come with a rechargeable Li-ion battery and get up to 6 hours of battery life (performance varies based on use).

With PanDigital’s Planet, Star, and Nova tablets you can take photos, capture videos, listen and download your favorite music or connect with your social networks. Access and manage your e-mail, browse the internet, download and play games or read a book with direct access to the Barnes and Noble eStore. Also, browse thousands of applications with instant access to the Android App store or with GetJar App Store.

“We’re excited to share this family of media tablets that feature innovative technology at an incredible value to our customers,” said Dean Finnegan, founder and CEO, Pandigital. “We have included many of the features and functionality that consumers have come to expect from much higher priced devices. To further enhance the customer experience, each model also includes several advanced features, such as the ability to browse the Internet, catch up on email, watch movies, and share photos on the family TV from the tablet.”
