The devices are available in four sizes: 3.5 inch 3G connection only; and 4, 4.5 and 5 inches, adding LTE connectivity.

Beyond that, the company has not provided further technical details, including processor and memory specifications, the key thing if you want to use these three operating systems with good performance.
