What&#8217;s more, Tesco shoppers who have built up a collection of loyalty points on their Clubcards could potentially purchase the device for even less, using the company&#8217;s &#8216;Boost&#8217; scheme.<br \/>\n<strong>Tesco Hudl Spec<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Hudl runs on the Jelly Bean version of Google&#8217;s Android operating system and features a seven-inch HD screen, 1.5GHz quad-core processor, a 3MP camera and up to 9.5 hours of battery life. The device also comes with 16GB of built-in storage, which can be upgraded to 48GB with an additional memory card.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nHowever, tech experts reckon that Tesco will have to work pretty hard for the Hudl to succeed in the competitive tablet market &#8211; especially with the price of so many well-known brands getting near the \u00a3100 mark. In fact, Amazon&#8217;s Kindle Fire already retails at just \u00a399.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the Guardian, Ben Wood, mobile analyst at CCS Insight said: &#8220;The tablet market is unbelievably competitive with extremely narrow margins, but that&#8217;s something that Tesco is used to.&#8221;<br \/>\nMeanwhile, the Telegraph&#8217;s technology editor, Matt Warman, explained: &#8220;The Hudl is aiming at a market that isn&#8217;t technology savvy but is interested, is aware of the iPad and knows that apps and the internet offer a whole new world from a shopping and entertainment perspective.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He reckons that the Kindle Fire is likely to be the Hudl&#8217;s biggest competition: &#8220;If that&#8217;s the market that Tesco is aiming for then it&#8217;s got a huge fight on its hands and its competition isn&#8217;t just Apple.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Amazon unveiled the latest version of its Kindle Fire tablet, which features a button that connects users to live technical support 24-hours a day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tesco Android Tablet &#8211; Hudl Unboxing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/imZ9VOgSq2w\" width=\"560\" height=\"314\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the announcement of last week&#8217;s Tesco Hudl tablet, the device has hit the shelves in 1,000 of the supermarket [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":86,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-85","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=85"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":85278,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85\/revisions\/85278"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=85"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=85"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wrappz.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=85"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
