Wickedleak Launches 7-inch Wammy Desire II At Rs.9,999


Wickedleak has launched the Wammy Desire II 7-inch budget-Android tablet in the Indian market for a price of Rs.9,999. The new tablet is the successor to the Wammy Desire tablet which was launched last year. Pre-bookings for the tablet have already started on the company’s website and the deliveries are expected to begin from May 15. 
Coming to the specifications, the Wickedleak Wammy Desire II boasts of some impressive power under the hood for it’s price, as it gets powered by a 1.4GHz quad-core Samsung Exynos 4412 processor paired with 1GB DDR3 RAM and Mali 400GPU. The 7-inch IPS display on the tablet sports a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels, amounting to a pixel density of 210 pixels per inch. 
Things get a bit strange on the software front, as the company has given the users an option to choose from either a stable build of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, or a beta version of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. The latter might have some bugs, but the company promises a stable release of Android 4.2 by next month. 
WickedLeak says that the users can install either of the operating systems on the tablet by contacting its support team at its website, and it would have no effect on the warranty of their device. 
The tablet gets 8GB of internal storage along with a micro-SD card slot for storage expansion by up to 32GB. On the camera front, the tablets gets a 2 megapixel rear and a 0.3 megapixel front camera. Connectivity options on the tablet include HDMI, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, while it also supports 3G via a dongle. 
To keep the tablet up and running for long, it gets a 3,300mAh battery as well. 
With the kind of specifications that the Wammy Desire II packs-in, it certainly looks like a great value for money product. You can head over to Wickeadleak’s official website, if you wish to book one for yourself.

BSNL Internet running at less than 80% capacity due to under-sea cable cuts

BSNL has released a statement revealing that its Internet capacity has dropped by 21% thanks to fiber cuts in three undersea cables that are responsible for global connectivity. According to a story by NDTV, it’s still not clear if the cable cuts have resulted in sub-par Internet connectivity for BSNL users since the BSNL customers we spoke to did not notice any anomalies in Internet speeds and connectivity.


Two of the undersea cables that suffered from cuts are managed by Tata Communications- the IWEWE cable system connects India to Europe via the Middle East and the SMW4 cable system connects South East Asia to Europe. In a statement, Tata Communications confirmed the cable cut and said that some customers could have noticed service disruptions last Wednesday.
If you’re still suffering from abnormally low Internet speeds, you should get in touch with your ISP since the companies managing the affected under-sea cables have said that services should be back to normal.
