The Acer Iconia A3 is powered by a 1.2GHz cortex A7 quad-core processor, has a 10.1-inch IPS display with resolution of 1280 x 800, 16 or 32GB of internal storage that’s expandable via microSD, plus a 5-megapixel rear camera.

The design of the Acer Iconia A3 is 10.15mm thick and weighs under 600g, making it easily portable.
