Hisense is set to revolutionise South Africa's tablet market with the introduction of the Sero 8 Pro (F5281), the thinnest Android tablet in the country.

The Sero 8 Pro (F5281) measures in at just 6.35mm - that's the thickness of three coins - yet it packs a powerful technological punch. This is even more impressive, given that the tablet has a slick, fashionable metal casing - which also makes it extremely durable and protects it from scratching.

Stunning good looks aside, the Sero 8 Pro (F5281) has much to offer. The IPS 2K screen allows for optimal clarity. With its wide view and high brightness, the screen also reduces reflection and refraction, thanks to the tight fit between the touch-screen and the cover glass.

An HEVC decode system supports 4K video decoding and display, while powerful hardware delivers a smooth operating experience, with the tablet capable of running 16 background programs simultaneously. Even large files, like games, can be opened swiftly. In fact, Hisense's groundbreaking tablet has been subjected to the Antutu Benchmark test point, ensuring users a superior experience that delights.

Because it is so thin, the Sero 8 Pro (F5281) is remarkably easy to handle, with users able to navigate it with just one hand. It has been specially designed for optimal heat dissipation, another factor which enhances the user experience.

Intuitive, fast and efficient, the tablet also boasts Dolby surround sound, and will be available from March in grey, gold, red and silver, at a suggested retail price of R2 999 at selected retailers nationwide.

Hisense General Manager Youbo Li says the tablet embodies the exceptional quality and value for money that Hisense fans have come to expect. "Our goal is to bring the very best value mobile device to the South African market," Li commented. "We're proud to offer consumers the same technology as our nearest competitors, at a far more attractive price. We believe that, by making technology accessible to all South Africans, we can truly improve the quality of life for all."

Li added that Hisense has a special focus on the mobile market, where it plans not only to achieve dramatic growth, but indeed, to restructure the entire industry through the introduction of feature-rich devices at an affordable price.

With its accent on user-friendliness, simplicity, convenience and affordability, the Sero 8 Pro (F5281) truly exemplifies the ideals of this dynamic, exciting brand.
