Tesco Hudl 2 will be revealed on October 3

Tesco recently announced that it shelved plans for a smartphone, but it's ploughing ahead with its tablet range, with the Hudl 2 to be announced on October 3.

A new section has popped up on Tesco's Hudl page, letting visitors register for more information on the Hudl 2 and promise of a "sneak peek". All of those colours are probably hints that we're in for a range of different hues.

The site has the date as "coming soon" but we've received an invite confirming that the big reveal is on October 3.

The original 7-inch Hudl was a surprisingly accomplished tablet, though the big plus was of course the price. We expect the second will be in for a spec bump, though probably not a bump in price - or at least that's what we hope.
