Vizio announced two new tablets for the international market and two new smartphones that’ll land in China in the coming months. All four mobile devices will be powered by a recent version of Android 4.x. They were detailed by The Verge, which got some hands-on time with each device.

First up is a 10-inch offering that will include an eye-popping 2560 x 1600 resolution display. All this beauty will be driven by the recently announced NVIDIA Tegra 4 processor. The tablet will also feature 32GB of internal storage and Android 4.2.

Next up is a 7-inch model that includes last year’s Tegra 3 CPU. The still-capable device will sport a 1280 x 800 resolution display, 16GB of onboard storage, 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera and Android 4.1.

Vizio also added two smartphones to its mobile device lineup. The pair are powered by dual-core processors and will be available in a 5-inch, 1080P flavor and smaller 4.7-inch, 720P model. Both are headed to China, while the tablets should land in select markets in the first half of 2013.
