The Philippines proves to be a profitable market for Kata, as the Hong Kong-based manufacturer is releasing yet another device a few days from now: the Kata FishTab 3. It’s the third tablet for the company to be released in our country and touts a significant bump in terms of specs over its predecessors.
Just how better is the Kata FishTab 3 than the previous versions? To start with, its powerful quad-core Rockchip processor runs at a decent performance and efficiency, something that can’t normally be found in other budget-friendly tablets. Users can expect graphics rendering to go smoothly on the 7.9-inch IPS multi-touch display, with visuals able to remain their clarity and vividness even at extreme viewing angles.
Kata FishTab 3 Specs
- Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
- 7.9-inch IPS touchscreen display (1024×768), ~162ppi
- 1.8GHz quad-core Rockchip 3188 processor
- 2GB RAM
- 8GB internal storage
- microSD expansion up to 64GB
- 5-megapixel main camera, with autofocus
- 2-megapixel front camera
- WiFi, 3G via adapter
- Dimensions: 201.7 x 136.3 x 8.4 mm
- Weight: 345g
- Li-Po 4400mAh battery
Yet another attractive perk of the FishTab 3 is its back that’s polished with metallic silver. Again, one can’t easily find a similar design like this in other low-cost devices. The tablet’s light weight and build also make it quite comfortable to hold over extended periods of use. Moreover, some retailers like the Owtel Shop are bundling a leather case and screen protector when buyers purchase the tablet in any of their outlets. Other items included in the packaging are the microUSB cable, a USB power adapter, and the manual or quick guide pamphlet.
If you’re looking for any shortcoming in the Kata FishTab 3, know that the screen resolution uses the older 4:3 aspect ratio instead of the more popular widescreen formats. The pixel density is also far from Retina levels, which means text and images lose their smooth appearance as you look closer into the screen.
With an expected retail price of Php10,999, the Kata FishTab 3 will become available on August 18 and have its first public unboxing at SM Cyberzone Megamall on that day. You can expect fans of the ichthyo-inspired tablet to be there.

We bought our Kata FishTab 3 a little less than a year ago and the battery just conked out. This is the second time I brought it for repair. In fact, 1 month of the 11 months that we had it was spent having it repaired because of some problem encountered when its OS was automatically updated. So, it was only for 10 months that it was actually in good working condition. Somebody from the repair service called and told me that I need to shell out P1,900.00 (P1,500.00 for the battery and P400 for the service charge) just to replace the battery. And I need to go back first to StarMall and pay the P1,900 before they’ll open the unit and replace the battery. Then, I have to wait again for them to deliver the tablet back to the StarMall outlet. What a RIP OFF! Never ever buy KATA products or products sold by OWTEL!!!
Saan po and service center ng kata dito sa manila? Kata fishtab 3 po yan. Pinag awayan ng mga anak ko at ibinato. Still working pa naman although may mga area sa gilid na Hindi na ma touch kailangan mo lang sya ibali baliktad para magamit mo ng maayos. TIA.
Ang ganda ng kata.d lng kayo marunong gumamit..i rooted my kata t2.i manage to swap my internal sd card to my external sd card..apply some battery saving apps like greenify,and juice defender.i even overclock it to boost cpu performance.using cpu performance control and ram booster app..para pung kotse ang mga gadget.kilangan po yan ng proper maintenance.dapat alam nyo kng ano gawin pag nagloloko na sya.hndi yong puro sakay lng ng sakay.
I bought mine last year month of Nov. It started to freeze after a few months. Since its still under warranty i brought it back at the store and they sent it to their service center for repair. After week by week follow up (since they don’t update you with regards to how they escalate the problem), It took around two months to have the unit replaced since parts are not available to repair the unit. Now its working just as it should. Smooth…My only advise is for those who’s using it now..Do not upgrade to the latest firmware!!! It will make your life miserable due to poor customer service should you return it.
