The Alcatel OneTouch Pixi 3 tablet is a 7.0-inch device and will sell for 14500 Naira (just under R1000).

The 2300 Naira (R160) Alcatel OneTouch 1050D covers the bases, and offers users a 1.8-inch colour display, a micro SD card slot for storage expansion, dual SIM support and a camera.

All devices will be available in black and while colour schemes from today, at major physical outlets or Jumia and Konga’s online portals.
