The Kobo Arc is a budget tablet, so don’t get your hopes up

The Kobo Arc was launched back in 2013 as a modest effort plunging in the extensive 7-inch tablet market.

Selling for a hefty price, the tablet failed to grow in customers’ preferences, but with a 50% discount, it might be worth taking another look at it.

The Kobo Arc comes with a 7-inch display and boasts an ordinary resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels and 215 ppi. Power comes from a 1.5GHz dual-core processor combined with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage (the model available for discount).

Now Amazon is offering the 7-incher with a chunky discount, so the tablet can be yours for just $108 / €80. At this price, it might be worth it grabbing this Android 4.0 powered machine, albeit you use it just for reading eBooks or browsing online content.
