We already know that the Google Tango tablet is real, and it is capable of 3D depth sensing. What we didn't know, is the price and who the device is targeted towards. Now we know, and we can safely say it is not cheap, though less expensive when compared to a Google Glass device.

We understand that Google is targeting these devices towards developers, though ordinary consumers can go ahead and make a purchase. However, potential ordinary consumers should bear in mind that Google will favor developers in this project, so if there are a limited amount, developers will be chosen over that one guy with a mullet.

Now, when it comes down to the specifications of the Tango tablet, we have to say that it is a beast, though nothing we've never seen before. The device comes packed with a Nvidia Tegra K1 processor, 4G of RAM, 128GB worth of storage, which is the first for a tablet coming from Google, and a 1080p full HD display. Additionally, Android 4.4 KitKat is installed, and there's also 4G LTE and the two cameras that will make 3D happen.

Although around 200 Tango smartphone developer kits were sent out, Google will focus more on the tablet version since it has more appeal, and the hardware power is more in line with what Google wants. Fans should expect great 3D games and apps that take advantage of the 3D cameras along with the depth sensor that resides at the back of the tablet.

Engadget has a video that breaks down Google's new tablet in the most understandable format. From what we've gotten from it, Google would most likely showcase the device at its I/O conference that is just around the corner.

If you're interested in purchasing this Tango tablet from Google, keep in mind that it costs $1,024 to own, so it is nothing compared to your regular tablet. Knowing Google, it is likely the hardware behind the Tango tablet could cost a fraction of that price, and consumers and developers are just paying a premium to own a device that is in limited quantity and not yet ready for prime time.
