NEW YORK, Feb. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NEW YORK TOY FAIR 2014 -- Vivitar today launched its new Camelio Mini tablet, the company's first smartphone-sized touchscreen tablet for children featuring a 4.3" capacitive touchscreen, built-in camera and Wi-Fi with 4GB of onboard storage. The company also debuted anew Camelio+ 7-inch tablet and announced two new Personality Pack licensing deals with Crayola and Nickelodeon at the 111(th)Annual Toy Industry Association's International Toy Fair® 2014 in New York.
"True to its name, Camelio has always been about bringing a refreshing change to the tablet market and allowing users to customize their device to reflect their own personality," said Liza Abrams, VP of Licensing for Sakar-Vivitar. "With new sizes, new Personality Packs and a more powerful hardware platform, Camelio adapts to suit anyone's style and preference."
Mini Size, Mega Fun
The new Camelio Mini combines the power of a full-featured Android tablet with the compact size and shape of a smartphone, ideal for smaller hands and maximum portability. With 4GB onboard storage, the Camelio Mini serves as a music player, video viewer, gaming system and more in a compact, durable form factor at a very affordable price--just $79.99 MSRP. Featuring a rear-facing camera and 5+ hours of battery life, Camelio is the perfect tablet for young children, for on-the-go play and for older kids who aren't quite ready for a smartphone.
The Camelio Mini debuts with three available Personality Packs (sold separately)--Hello Kitty, Batman and Monster High--each including a molded bumper case and a special AppCard that creates a themed user interface coordinating with the case. The Camelio Mini hits store shelves this spring, with additional Personality Packs featuring Nickelodeon characters coming soon.
Customize Camelio with Crayola and Nickelodeon Themes
Vivitar has partnered with Crayola and Nickelodeon to launch several new Personality Packs that customize any Camelio with Crayola's signature colorful designs or favorite Nickelodeon characters, including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and SpongeBob SquarePants. The vibrant theme packs include a "grip-able," bumper case, plus a unique app card that customizes the user interface with the design theme to create a truly unique user experience. Exclusive apps included with some Personality Packs also offer games, educational programs and more, all wrapped in the interchangeable theme pack of your choice.
New Camelio+Offers More Power, Advanced Features
The new 7-inch Camelio+ features a fast quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM and the latest Android 4.4 Kit-Kat operating system for more powerful, efficient performance and faster multi-tasking. Now with built-in Bluetooth, the Camelio+ pairs with any Bluetooth-enabled headphones, speaker, keyboard or other accessory to expand its capabilities and improve the user experience.
