HP has added a 7.85″ unit to compliment its line-up of 7″ and 8″ tablets. The HP 8 1401 is a quad-core tablet that runs Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. “It’s got responsiveness that delivers entertainment where you want it. Sleek and smart with technology you can trust, the HP 8 is big on performance, slim in style, and small on price,” claims the company.

The HP 8 is in fact a rebranded US launch of the Compaq 8 that was introduced in China in October last year. The tablet weighs about 11 ounces. Featuring a 7.85″ LCD display with 1024 x 768 resolution, the WiFi-only device packs a 1GHz AllWinner A31S quad-core processor, 1GB RAM and 16GB of internal storage.
