VIZIO’s LCD Domination Might Illuminate Future Successes in Tablet Rental Market

In the tablet rental realm, we recognize that VIZIO has become a household name. The company rocketed to infamy with its aggressive pricing and attractively packaged LCD products, and its success is precisely the reason that companies like Sony and Samsung have gone belly-up within certain markets.

And it may very well be that VIZIO’s influence extends past display screens to include tablets. It has an eight inch "VIZIO Tablet" slated for release within a few days, and the Android-based device may very well change the entire marketplace.

That’s because it has a price-tag of $299.

The VIZIO Tablet has WiFi, three-speakers, built-in universal remote control applications, WiFi, Bluetooth and other cutting-edge features. All of this glitz and glamour make the device one worth reckoning with, and it was certainly crafted with just such intent.

Users looking for a budget-conscious option have gotten what they were looking for in the VIZIO Tablet, and Matt McRae, the company’s chief technology officer, has spoken to that appeal. He said, "VIZIO set out to build an innovative tablet that breaks new ground and addresses the gaps in current offerings in the market." McRae added, "The VIZIO Tablet offers a superior multimedia experience with its three speaker design, home theater integration with IR, and a perfect size for typing, eBooks, gaming and portability. These innovations and our ground breaking price push the category forward and deliver on our brand promise of Entertainment Freedom for All."

VIZIO’s positioning at key retail locations, such as Costco, BJ’s, Sam’s Club, Walmart and Target, made the company what it is today. Those same retailers are coming out of the woodwork to support the release, as evidenced by a statement given by Tim Farmer over at Costco.

Farmer said, "We are excited that VIZIO is listening, once again, to what the marketplace is asking for with a high performance sub $300 Tablet. VIZIO's reputation is built on affordable technology and entertainment and this product is expected to generate a strong consumer response."

From an industry-insider standpoint, we can certainly appreciate the budgetary value the VIZIO Tablet represents. But we also know that, just as in the realm of LCDs, you get what you pay for.

Enterprise consumers seeking a higher-end experience for a minimal payout can instead take advantage of any of Vernon Computer Source’s quality tablet or LCD rental units from the industry’s leading producers. Low cost – high performance.
