Zync has added another tablet to its portfolio, the Zync Z999. The device is the successor to the Zync Z990, and will be running Google’s Android 4.0 ICS OS. There is no word on whether the device will be upgradable to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

At the launch of the tablet, Ashish Garg – Director, Zync Global Pvt. Ltd. Said, “We were the first players to launch a low cost tablet on Android 4.0 a few months ago and are constantly working on innovating by adding more features to match the varied needs and lifestyles of consumers. The response from our customers base for our earlier models Z909 Plus, Z990 and the Z990 Plus has been outstanding and we are catering to the student community and educational institutions at large.”

Zync is not the only company that is updating its hardware. Recently we have seen iBerry launch the Auxus AX03G.
