Home-bred consumer electronics major Micromax has launched a budget 3G slate dubbed as Canvas Tab P480 in India.
Tab P480 is said to be the successor of Canvas Tab P470, which was launched in December 2014. The new model, which is just four months younger than its predecessor, comes with two major upgrades in CPU and front-camera department, but its battery capacity has been downgraded by 200mAh.
