Dell Mini 5 Has Interesting Specs But Will Probably Be Priced Too High to Be in the Winners' Circle

Dell’s Tablet Aims to Stick It to Apple’s iPad

While the Dell Mini 5’s 5-inch display has more real estate than, for example, my Droid’s near-4-inch display, it is hard to consider something that “tiny” (relatively speaking) a tablet. I think 7 or 8 inches is where I start thinking “tablet”. But, let’s take a look at the specs Wired.com’s Gadget Labs reveals. We’ve seen some of this informatoin before, but it is always good to see what new was found in a hands-on preview.

– 5-inch capacitive touchscreen (like the iPhone and all Android touchscreen phones)
– 5-megapixel main camera and front facing lower resolution camera for vido conferencing (definitely an advantage over the iPad)
– Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor (like the Nexus One and HTC HD2)
– WiFi & 3G
– Google Android 2.0
