Onboard storage is set at either 16GB or 32GB and the battery should provide up to 8.5 hours of endurance according to official information. The Iconia Tab 10 (A3-A30) is also designed with a specific goal in mind. It is intended for educational use and is set to join the Google Education ecosystem.
