Sorry if this is wrong forum, but I am looking at buying a tablet, and I was thinking about getting one of these cheapo chinese tablets.
The specs are higher than the specs for tablets made by samsung or motorola and for less than half the price so I was wondering what I should be looking for when deciding between one china tab and another one. Any tablets someone recommends running ICS?
Thanx!
You get what you pay for man...build quality and dev will be low
If you want to go cheap, you can just buy a used Nook Color for around $100.
You can also easily score a Dell Streak 7 or a Acer A100 for less than or around $200 on eBay.
There were refurb HTC Flyers posted a few weeks ago for 189$ shipped after coupon code...
Just shop around
I just did a post about a tablet I got on Amazon. It has to be Chinese made for the price, but I love it. Works great for me and seems to be a LOT like my friends Kindle fire. Here's the link to the thread with specs.
If you can, you should wait for the google tablet by Asus coming out in a few month. The price is not bad at all and I'm sure there's going to be a ton of Dev support.
Like dude said, with Chinese tablet you get what you pay for. Not worth it in the long run.

If you want performance, specs, and dev support on the cheap, you're going to want to pick up a HP Touchpad off CL or eBay. If you shop around you can get a 16 gb for around $150 and a 32 GB for about 2 bills.
10" screen, dual core, awesome speakers, dual boots Android ICS and WebOS, practically unbrickable. Made by a credible company who sporadically decided to stop making tablets and sell all of their stock for pennies on the dollar. That's going to be your best quality, cheap tablet.

I disagree. I was looking for a lower priced tablet, preferably running ics and have good support. I found www.eforchina.com and browsed thru their stuff. I found the Ainol novo 7 Elf. A 7" tabled running ics, with a cortex a8 allwinner cpu 1,2 ghz. 1gb of ddr3 ram, hdmi and usb ports. All that for 125 euro's. I figured i may be disappointed, but we'll see. When i got it, i couldnt be more pleased with it. Its fast, there is plenty of support, its got everything except a big pricetag. I know have three of these in my family. All work pefectly. Hope this helps.

With announcement of 16GB Nexus 7 and 32GB Nexus 7, do 8GB Nexus users feel cheated? I own a 8GB version and have found it to be inadequate for keeping all games together, forget about songs and videos. Though I made a wrong choice, today's discontinuation of 8GB model makes me feel cheated.
Do you too?
Yea. I mean that's the kind of risk you take being an early adopter, but I really feel I should of either just gotten a 16GB model, or waited. But then again my 8GB model is working just fine. I really wish Google would have some trade-in system to let me upgrade to a 16GB model at least, even if for a little price.
I wonder how long it will take to start seeing cool stuff for only 16/32GB models now...
Of course, it hasn't been long since they where out and this happened. And its not like added anything new other than the memory.
A upgrade like what happened with the kindle fire is ok. They changed a few things
But i exchanged mine for a 16gb today lol so im cool now
It did have some screen lift and even though it was passed the exchange time frame office Depot hooked me up. You just got to know how to talk to people

Depends on what you use your tablet for. Granted I bought a 16gb version on release, Sam's didn't have the 8gb option, but I still have 11 gigs of space available on mine. I use mine to browse the Web and do some random things for work, I have a 10" Acer Iconia for my Multimedia needs around the house. When I travel I tend to use Netflix to stream content, and or I can throw about 3 hours worth of shows on it to watch on a plane or whatever and still stay well under the 8 gig mark. If you wanted something for multimedia purposes then you should have purchased something with more memory, but if you use the tablet in the way it was built for 8gb should be plenty of space.

Hell, everyone should feel cheated because they don't have microSD slots... I have a 2 yo gtab with 32gb and could have 64gb if I wanted
we all are in the same boat. yours got discontinued. ours got price dropped.

Wouldn't mind them throwing some extra Drive space our way though. Seems like a simple gesture, considering as y'all said, memory is the only difference.

I really feel disappointed at all =.=....
I will give Google $80~$100 more for a change my 16GB for 32GB + 3G with my all pleasure =.='
no
No. I chose the "8", I got the "8", and I paid for the "8". My choice all through. I could have waited and grabbed the "16" for the same price as it now turns out, but then I would have missed the pleasure I have had from it in the meantime. I would have felt far more cheated to have bought the "16" only to find only thirteen gigs useable.
Yes, I feel cheated, especially because I had my 8GB Nexus for only a month now. Sure, there's always such a risk but after such a short time?
Still, I made the right decision at the time.. 50 € for an additional 8 gigs is just plain ridiculous. And for the most part, the storage is sufficient for my needs which is browsing the web and gaming (except Bard's Tale with its whopping 3,35 GB - great game btw!). For everything else there's USB OTG with either a 32GB flash drive or a Transcend Storejet.
I would probably go for the 32GB Nexus now, though. The markup is still not justified, but more bearable for sure. I'd be willing to pay for it for not having to lug around external drives in the foreseeable future and be able to connect a battery pack while on the go.
I'd expect them to provide same attitude Apple made when they dropped the iPhone 2G with 4GB....
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_(original)
I should remind you early adaptors got store credit. and if Google continue offering 25$ I'd expect them to give credit to those who got their device price cut.
for the same price, former 8GB owners lost 8GB storage space while former 16GB owners lost 16GB storage space..
i would say 16GB owners got "cheated" more..
anyway its those kind of risks we took when buying an electronics product, just that this time it happened a bit too fast..
Got my nexus 7, 25$ play store credit and 10$ wallet credit. I'm perfectly fine

So stupid for people to feel cheated when technology has an extremely short life cycle now-a-days.
Im from eu. And i dont have 25$ credit. Simply i get the tablet after that promotion anyway i wouldnt put my credit card number to a private vpn to set it up. So ye i feel cheated since n7 16gb costs here 230eur..its 300$ ..now i could get 32 for that prize and even first month didnt pass after it started selling in my country.
You dont get if you think its about technology..adding a cheap flash memory is a technological progress? Kidding right?

So true! I don't understand how people feel cheated...they made a decision based on the information at hand and found the 8 GB to be a good product and bought it. In the light of the recent HW upgrade and price drop, it would seem it was a bad decision....suck it up...I understand it feels unfair, but who said life is fair? Myself, I decided that 8 GB was not enough, and the 16 GB lacked 3G so I didn't want either of the options available....I investigated, and found the rumor about a 32 GB and a 3G version, and decided to wait. I'd rather wait for a while and get a product I'm 100% happy with, than settle for the next best thing, just because I wanna be "first"....
you're missing the point. Storage, while useful, is not that important, as long as the otg cables work. The HSPA+ though, is the most annoying omission. I would have paid $50 more for that if it had only been available. Somebody else said around here and I agree: I'd rather use up the tablet battery for 3G, and not my phone.
Also, didn't get $25 credit because I'm from the EU.

Problem for some of us was that waiting was not an option. I bought my 16GB during a trip to the US, because to get it here would have cost me $400. I could have waited for the next better version, but by that logic I'd never have a phone - there's always something better out next year. Turned out ok though, because this way I don't get to swim with the sharks in Jersey. (would post URL, not allowed).
Is this tab a good deal for $279? Its the 16gb version norm price is $379. I just wanna make sure everything works well. Any problems with this tab? I have the Lenovo Ideapad K1 and the biggest problem I have with it, is its has horrible WiFi signal and I haven't seen any WiFi issues with this tab. But I did notice that this tab doesn't have gorilla glass. So I also want to make sure the glass doesn't get to scratched easily and that its sensitive enough.
Thanks, Dev

Good luck actually getting one, but I think it sounds like a good deal. Remember this does have expandable memory, so really internal storage isn't a huge problem. I had the transformer prime for a while, loved it, but couldn't justify the expense so I returned it. This thing is the exact same device with a plastic back and slightly lower res screen If this sale is going on cyber Monday too I'm certainly snagging one.

It sounds like a good deal to me. I'd run with it. I have the 32 GB version, with another 32 GB micro SD card. I paid $297 for mine on the no tax weekend at Micro Center in St. Louis. These were on clearance. I've had 4 tablets already, the Acer Iconia 500, the iPad 2, the Galaxy Tab 2, and this one. I've enjoyed this one more than all the others.
Today, a boss of mine, that I see once a year, came in, and noticed he had an iPad with him. I really wanted to say to him, "So, you got a pretentious hunk of junk, huh?" But I figured that would hurt his feelings.

Same here...sure would like the link so could pick it up at Bestbuy and not hassle with Black Friday crowds! Like the $299 OfficeDepot price for the 32GB but w/sd card don't think I need the add'l 16GB. Other than production apps that can't use SD storage, any major benefit for getting the 32Gb model?
Also (and new thread likely best, but...) this'll be my first tablet. Mostly for multimedia, browsing, e-books, & general game playing - considering Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 too. Though Galaxy might(?) have a better multimedia experience (not so much into the Galaxy's "extra" GUI), but TF300T seems to have better multimedia & overall performance. Am I losing much if any on graphics & sound in going for the better performance? Sorry, I know it's been discussed some elsewhere, but need some additional thoughts to help me know I'm not making the wrong choice!

My advice is to make sure you can return it just in case you're not happy with it. I/O issue plagues most of current Asus pads so in the end, lower price may not justify the frustration. Again you might be ok with it but just in case.

Good point - just checked with Office Depot and they do give 14 days to return it for a full refund. So that shouldn't be a problem...
As for the I/O issue, how prevalent is it? I did a quick search and did find some references. This has me greatly concerned and if it's that big problem of a problem, then about only alternative is the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. But being a dual core, was worried it'd be noticeably slow in running apps, browsing/viewing multimedia, etc. Did like some aspects of the Galaxy, but was really leaning towards the TF300T.
Just came across one XDA thread from August discussing ASUS working on fixing this and the OTA 4.0.4 greatly helped the benchmarks. Is it possible a new kernel or update has corrected the issues at this point? Another in September mentioned using a custom ROM...I plan on rooting it, though just as with my EVO3D thought I'd stay with the stock rooted ROM. I'd figure this an option to help correct the problem if I do encounter it (and if necessary, run a different ROM)?
Lastly, how difficult is it to root?
Thanks much for the insights!!
Can you get the Black version only at BB? I would love to get that one but online for $279..

I noticed on the Office Depot Black Friday ad that they have the TF300T 32Gb for $299.99 (advertised as blue so may not be the black you want). Some items are available for sale online tomorrow - Update: turns out have to go to the store on Friday morning to get this deal. I know it's an extra $20 and quite possibly blue, but still a good deal...
And yes, after reading more I feel less wary of the i/o issue. Some had encountered it, others not and seemed that OTA updates (possibly moving from ICS to Jelly Bean) helped. Plus rooting and running a custom ROM is another option or worst case, bring it back...
Looks like another round of learning regarding unlocking the bootloader and rooting. Was reading a bit about being able to do OTA updates if rooted (but not unlocked), and restoring root after. Seems to me on my EVO3D doing OTA's after unlocking & rooting weren't recommended, and that may be the case here too? I do have to go back and do more reading on these topics!
Hi guys/gals,
I can pick up n7 for £179 but is it worth waiting for n8?
I know price will be 300 or thereabouts as screen increase but would the extra cpu and ram and maybe resolution make it worth it for 1" bigger screen?
Thanks
There is no reason for waiting for N8,since it's just a rumour d no official word on it. A new Nexus device probably launch with a new version of android & expect it around June or July. So waiting for N8 may be worthless.
Still Nexus 7 2013 is an awesome device & you will love your new purchase. E179 is an awesome deal & you should definitely grab it

More than the extra inch in screen size, something worth the wait could be the possible change in the aspect ratio if they will move from 16:10 to 3:2. However this change isn't confirmed and so it simply depends on your current needs. July is 5 months away from now. If the market price will be higher than all the previous launch prices for N tablets, the SoC could even be something nice and new like the Snapdragon 805 and so worth the wait.
Yeah SoC upgrade will be worth it.
My only not sure area is as I already have a Asus TF300T (yes it is a slow hog) I can still use it for videos etc while at home fine. I just need something portable for trains so dont want to spend over £200 on that as already have 10" tab. So the fact that the N8 if made wont be same price as N7 at launch I doubt I can spend that much.
Thanks guys
Only thing that would be worth the wait in my opinion is if:
# they add a digitizer for pen input
# possibly a more efficient battery (not necessarily bigger)
# 64 bit chip with the necessary RAM upgrades to see the actual boosts in performance
The Nexus 7 2013 still flies as it is. I doubt there will be pen input and 64 bit tablets at the moment still only see around 2 GB of RAM.
I'd go with the Nexus 7. Just my 2 ¢ents!

£179 for a N7 is good I think. Doubt N8 will drop to that price less then a year of release!
If the next nexus is made by ASUS, I'm not buying it. I'll switch to LG or Samsung. Both my nexus 7s from 2012 and 2013 have had frustrating touch screen issues that eventually make me not want to use them for anything but reading books.

I would imagine that a gently used 32gb Nexus 7 2nd gen would sell for more than $100 even after the Nexus 8 is announced.
But anyways, yes you make a valid point and that is what I was suggesting in my prior post. Very interested to see nexus 8 though. I will probably be content though.
Agreed. After returning N7 fhd in July, got a much better one in Nov. but still interested in the N8 if, indeed, one comes to fruition.

Still just a rumor, but most expect a new N10 and a N8.
I just went out to Currys to try and pick one up instore however it was out of stock. Also out of stock on the online website.
However, its still available on their eBay outlet store for the same price. (£99)
Is this still worth picking up then? Are the going to be discontinuing this model? Are the eBay ones their surplus stock their trying to get rid off?
Do you think the price will drop any further?
Thanks!
Very much doubt the price will drop any further. The £99 price tag is to get rid of surplus stock. I got mine at this price as well.
Thanks for that!
So you reckon its still with a pop? Not much else better I can get for £99 can I?
Performance Per Buck (PPB also know and Bang for Buck BFB) is that good that its not just worth getting its worth ripping it out their hands. I have had one which was faulty but the second one is perfect! just make sure you get the Magnetic cover as well!!!!
For a tablet that can keep up with the modern phones its smashing mate.
Yes I managed to play with one in store and it handled everything I threw at it with ease. I was just a bit concerned that it isn't really as popular as other tablets despite the low price.
I was deciding between this and the Nexus 7 2013, but I'd probably not go for the latter as the chip is ancient in tech world now and Nexus 8 is announced this week...?
Thanks all the same for the help, was just really what I was looking for, a confirmation I am doing the right thing. [emoji3]
I guess I'll place my order in the morning.
Cheers!
This tablet crushes the Nexus 7 2012 and 2013 in benches. A tablet that is not popular is not always a bad sign.
But there is also the down side of the company that has its branding on the Nvidia Tegra Note 7 (tegratab) in our case in the UK its Advent as they have bad rep in the computer side of things how ever with the TegraNote 7 the only thing Advent did was Brand the Device the sold making was down to Nvidia!! hence why Nvidia supplies the OTA's and the EVGA GiGabyte etc are all the same. The only major difference is the partition called LBH which holds the bootanimiation with the company whitelable.

I paid £3.19 for a pack of 6 off Amazon. [emoji51]
Not here till Thursday at the earliest so in the mean time I have to put up with the scratch ridden plastic cover it came with. (Fruit Ninja with Stylus caused it) ?

Best case for Tegra Note is Fintie case for HP Slate 7 Extreme. It is 100% compatible. Also the magnets work like a charm.
