I happened to catch this today and looked at the specs and the price. I couldn't help but compare it to the Archos 101.
http://www.buy.com/prod/superpad-10.../q/loc/111/listingid/135638472/220692978.html
Anyone know more about it? Other than being OS 2.1, it seems to have some nice extras over the 101 like built in GPS and an Ethernet jack.
Features
Display: 10.2" TFT Touch Screen (1024 x 600 resolution)
OS: Android 2.1 Processor: ARM11 1Ghz - RAM: 256MB DDR2
Internal Hard Drive: 2GB Flash with 2 TF slots for expansion (supports MicroSD 32GB max)
Ports: 2 x USB 2.0, 2 x MicroSD Slots, Mini HDMI, DC Jack, 3.5mm
Headphone/Line-Out, RJ45 Ethernet
GPS Antenna and Stylus Included
is it captive touchscreen? i would guess not because if it was you wouldn't need a stylus.
Haven't seen this particular tablet before, but seen hundreds like it.
There's no way they can provide all those specs without cutting corners, which means the overall experience won't be great. Also, looking at the images, looks like they've stuck a custom launcher on top.
This is probably one of the reasons Google have withheld the Honeycomb source code. If they released it now, any fly-by-night startup can churn out poor quality, cheap tablets running HC. People pick these up based on the "great price" and then find out they're a PITA to use, with none of the smoothness, flair or ease of use that you'd get with a Xoom, Transformer or (say it quietly) an iPad. The opinion they then come to? "Android is rubbish."

Hello,
Just got one.
This one only has 1 Micro Slot.
Positive:
Wifi, thouch screen and GPS function well.
Easy to install from the market.
I love the size because it's so much easier to use than an android phone.
It's an external GPS receiver
The display is fine.
Stylus is usefull because some web buttons are soooooooooooo small
Negative:
Power cable connection broke within 24 hours
USB is not activated/blocked for PC connection
Two hardware buttons sank in frame (still can use them)
Helen
its a tft, that means resistive touch...
My wife has one:
- speed is (much) less than the Archos
- battery life is down to 20 minute max (!) after some months
Did anyone bought Kingsing W8? I got it few days ago.
This is seams to be cheapest Windows 8.1 tablet.
Basic info:
CPU Intel Baytrail-T Quad Core 1.8GHz
GPU Intel HD Graphic(Gen7)
System Windows 8.1
RAM 1GB DDR3L
Capacity 16GB
Screen 8 inch IPS Capacitive Touch Screen
Resolution 1280*800
It has great hardware for that price. Some would say that 1Gb is not enough but I have this tablet and I can say it is. Tablet is a fast, fluid. 1Gb ram on this optimized OS is enough for a tablet. Google Chrome and Internet Explorer can without any problem show all sites, games can also run smoothly. (Despicable me is working great)
All sites tell that this CPU can run on 1.8ghz but Intel Atom processor Z3735G for me works at 1.33 GHz. Is there any way to enable "turbo" or what?
Video: youtube.com/watch?v=f3BMy2DrLEY
This is my first Windows tablet and it is even faster than Android which I bought for same price- 116$.
I am glad that Windows tablet are becoming cheaper and cheaper and Kingsing W8 is working great for me.
Are there any more users here?

yes, i see gizchina has reported that this is the cheapest windows 8.1 quad core smartphone at $100, i guess it's official price, not for reseller, and also know good news that Kingsing s2 and Kingsing W8 has a giveaway activity from 1949deal. See here: h ttp://goo.gl/RttCym , i guess it has no ram 2gb version now. Maybe in the near future.
This looks like a better deal, not sure if it is a scam, though. At least it is from aliexpress, so you should get your money back.

Best, cheap 8-inch Windows Tablet's the TW801. Hands down.
I picked up the TW801 from MicroCenter open Box for $118. Best $118 I ever spent. It's got a reliable HDMI-out, a Full-sized USB 3.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, and a miniUSB for charging (and you can also use it for data, I tried).
I run Fedora 17 (I'm in a Linux 101 course at my community college) using VMware while running Chrome and Amazon Kindle all at the same time while taking notes in Chrome--and I use a Motorola Lapdock for a second screen. This thing runs absolutely brilliantly. Only downside is the pathetic battery life. But for about $120, it blows the Dell Venue 8 Pro, Lenovo Miix2 8-inch and the rest of the 8-inch tablets (for me) way out of the water. I've been able to play 1080p videos on a 60hz TV with minimal stutter at the beginning and smooth sailing from then on (using YouTube). I'm sure I wouldn't have a problem watching anything else, either. If the Venue 8 Pro can handle games, this one probably can too, though the only thing I tried on it was Second Life, haha, and that ran decent.
If you're in the market for a cheap 8-inch with HDMI AND a full-sized USB 3.0 slot, nothing quite touches this little guy. Here's some specs.

I've bought this tablet since 2 weeks ago and it was great... But now it won’t turn on anymore. I guess it happened after some auto updates installed. Do you have any idea....? Thanks.

Lucky you. In europe you can't buy that tablet i found it on internet. And was like woow i want. But imposible to buy here. Yes for like 220euro way to overpriced.
But yeah realy nice tablet for that price witg full usb 3.0
The 5-Point Multi-Touch is a weak point of this tablet.
Well after an interminable wait, largely due to US customs sitting on it for 8 days, the W8 finally arrived last week. After 6 days of using it I am more than impressed. Very responsive, and certainly fast enough for the sort of things you do on tablets. The cameras aren't too impressive but that isn't a priority for me. Using a full windows desktop on an 8" widescreen is a bit of an interesting experience but you can do it. I think I'll pick up stylus as my fingers ain't all that dainty! Battery life isn't stellar but it is no worse than my nook HD+, and the display is a whole lot better than the nook's. Overall worth the $116 and quite pleased with my purchase.
W8 Windows version?
Does anyone know the exact Windows version that these tablets use?
I have one that has a standard Win 8 install but the touch is not operational.
The touch is working as it operates when I did the recovery process, so I am assuming that it just doesnt have the correct version installed
Any ideas?
Hello everyone!
First of all thanks to those who read and / or respond and sorry for my English.
I'm thinking of building a build with a budget around €450\€500.
The use that I will make of this pc is relatively basic, casual game without big pretensions, surfing the web, streaming, watching videos, music, modding with the phone and the like, but I would like a good pc, which at least as long as my current one, 14 years old, (that's why it's time to retire that acer intel 2 duo).
Let's get down to business, the configuration I thought of (after hours of research and pricing) is this.
{For the moment without a dedicated video card because otherwise I have to sell a kidney ...}
MOBO:
ASUS TUF GAMING B560M-PLUS WIFI LGA 1200;
CPU:
IINTEL i3 10320 or 10100;
RAM:
G.SKILL RIPJAWS V DDR4 3200 MHZ 8GB (2X4GB) CL16;
SSD:
SAMSUNG 980 M.2 250 GB PCI EXPRESS 3.0 V-NAND NVME;
PSU:
EVGA 450 80+ BRONZE 450W
CASE:
AEROCOOL BIONIC -G-BK-V2;
in addition I also have 4 hhd sata, 320gb, 250gb, 160gb and 120gb, which I will replace later with a 500gb or 1tb hdd or ssd.
This is my starting point while staying in a budget of 480 €, which I would later like to enrich with a new hdd \ ssd, dedicated video card, and maybe 2 more ram banks. I chose this motherboard because I trust asus and then in a more distant future I can replace the cpu with an 11th generation one.
What do you think?
Advice?
some advice
for cpu: i have no comment/advice. assuming you already know the 10100 have integrated gpu and also comes with cooler
for mobo: do you have router/modem installed in your house (direct lan connection pc to router). if you do have, you dont need extra wifi module for your mobo, go for non wifi version instead or asus prime b560m (if its cheaper)
for ram/case: if you're fine with second hand ram/case, try looking that instead (ram with 2x8GB), it might be cheaper buying second hand ram/case than buying brand new.
for psu: dont cheap out your psu, if you're planning for upgrade adding gpu later its best to have good quality psu first. do your research, if you dont have money still, you can search for second hand good quality PSU atleast 500w 80+ bronze is minimum for rtx 30 /rx 6000 (evga br/bq, corsair, coolermaster, be quiet, fractal)
storage: samsung 980 is good ssd, but 256gb is not enough. i dont recommend you buying second hand ssd, there is still cheap but good ssd 2.5 inch sata
for the laptop itself: upgrading ram, upgrading to 2.5inch ssd, and install linux just for fun might a good idea, or just be a backup in case there is trouble with your new pc
hope it help you
edit: added be quiet, fractal brand
@Animalizers hi!
Thanks for reading and replying and for the good advice.
For the cpu I'm opting for the 10320 because I find it almost at the same price as the 10100, it seems a minimum more performing.
Yes, I know that it has the integrated gpu, so for the moment I can use the pc without having to take a dedicated graphics.
For the mobo I have seen that with b560m (prime or others) without wifi it costs less, however, having a router a bit far from where I will mainly go to put the pc (I will use a smart TV as a monitor) the cable connection would be cumbersome for daily use, is the reason why the wifi module is more convenient.
For the ram \ case \ psu I prefer the new one because I find the ram at 43 € \ + -50 $, the case at the same price as the ram and the psu the same.
I don't know how much I could save with the used one, but at that price it is definitely better to have a 2 or more year warranty.
Always for the ram I am undecided on the frequency, because I have read that the 10100 \ 10320 supports a maximum of 2666mhz and perhaps with the xmp profiles I can not make them work at 3200mhz, even if in anticipation of a cpu upgrade it is better to have them already at 3200 too if for the moment they will work without.
For the psu and the ssd you are right, in anticipation of a future upgrade, it is better to have a 500 \ 550w psu and a minimum of 500gb ssd, even if I intend to install only the so and some programs, then for the rest of the data use the other hhd's and keep the ssd as clean as possible.
For the laptop I have already increased the ram (recycled from another broken one) to 4gb, but the system can only manage 3 and 1 for the hardware, only that many programs I use do not run with linux so I am forced to use it with that boulder of win10 (I really care, it was my first pc ) in fact I thought I would immediately take an SSD to then transfer to the new one, I will definitely keep it as a spare, as I keep another desktop assembled by me with recycled pieces from other computers but he too is very obsolete mounts an amd athton 64x2, also 3gb ram and with linux it is pretty good.
now I would really like to have something of the new generation, as I said before I have been standing still for 14 years with my Acer but now it is very tried, look at these photos
I bought optiplex 990 renewed version from Amazon at just 180 pounds. It has i7 processor, 16gb ram, 250gb ssd + 1tb HDD, Windows 10 pro OEM installed.
Only down side is, it has only integrated intel graphics 2000HD. But if you purchase Nvida gt1030 low profile grafics card for another 80 pounds, will easily fit in to the rig...
@manurahim hi!
hi! I have seen the refurbished of amazon and for those prices they are apeatable offers.
However, as I said before, my maximum budget is 500 euros which would be more or less 428 pounds or 580 dollars, my intent is to assemble a pc with a penultimate or last generation configuration, therefore trying to avoid pre-assembled or reconditioned \ regenerated.
In those I have seen on Amazon are mounted i5 \ i7 second, third or maximum fourth generation, this means that they are cpu of 2011 \ 2012 and are almost the age of my acer.
Note that an i7 2xxx or 3xxx has the same features as an i3 10xxx, only it is a newer (2020) cpu and is on the win11 compatible cpu list.
I would like to assemble it myself because I like to do it and then with a good research and a little patience you can save something compared to a pre-assembled configuration
Oh. Ok.

Why not just do the core i5 10400, or 10400f ? I mean there's a maybe $60 difference, and performance is right nice for the price. Same with mobo, go a z490 or z590 and give some future upgrades. I just ordered a msi z590A pro and a 10600k for $399

i looked and with that extra $ 60 i go over budget, surely the performance with that cpu and motherboard is better, but with 390 $ I get the b560 (with wifi which for me is very useful even if I lose some features with a less expensive chipset) the 10320 and the ram

Way back in 2014 my son and I built this PC with parts we purchased locally in Mumbai.
The idea was to build a PC on which my son could play games.
This was and still is the configuration....
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4440 CPU @ 3.10GHz
Memory 16 GB DDR
Hard Disk: 1 TB
Monitor : 24 in Acer
Graphic Card : Asus nvidia GTX 750ti
Monitor Resolution 1920x1080 pixels
Cabinet : Circle Gaming Cabinet CC 821
SMPS: Corsair VS Series VS550 - 550 Watt SMPS
Keyboard: RedGear
After my son moved on to a PC with better specs, I got my hands on it and have been using this device for the last 3 years. My use has been restricted to Office work. The only high performance task I do is the occasional building of a custom ROM. That required the 16 GB of RAM. It also takes about 3-4 hours. Off late have stopped building ROM's and stick to browse, email, chat all office related stuff. Occasionally use GIMP to edit photos for social media posts. That justifies the RAM.
Have added the following two hardware components.
Audio : Use bOAT Aavante Bar 1130 60 W 2.0 channel soundbar connected to the speaker socket
Printer: HP DeskJet 2332
The OS for the past 4 years has been Ubuntu and the current version running is 20.04.4 LTS...waiting for the 22.04 LTS to be released.
With the old proverb 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' at the back of my mind, thinking of upgrading the PC before it collapses and leaves me stranded.... Looking for some tips on this forum.
I wouldn't bother upgrading it, save perhaps for installing a SATA SSD drive if your 1TB drive is the traditional kind, or better yet a PCI-E M.2 drive adapter if you have a spare PCI slot.
I'd maybe re-apply thermal paste to the CPU and give the heatsink and filters a good clean but otherwise it just isn't worth the bother.
If you are going from traditional HDD to an SSD you will appreciate the boost.
for a few bucks you can get a win 7 pro license and use it to install windows 10. A sata SSD would be a nice addition. Nvme might not work without some bios modding to add nvme driver to it.
Hi everyone,
Currently, I am using ASUS K53SD laptop for video editing and photoshop but now my computer is showing slowness, and now don't have enough money to buy a new computer so I hope you guys can give me some advice. some suggestions to upgrade the hardware are that the price is most reasonable.
Specification
CPU: Intel Core i5 - 2450M
RAM: 8GB
HDD: 1TB
VGA: Intel HD Graphic 3000 + Nvidia Geforce 610M
WLAN: Atheros AR5B195
Thank you!
I believe your first, best, and maybe only option is to replace the old HDD with a new SSD of similar capacity depending on your budget/needs. The speed increase of the SSD should be quite noticeable from the time it takes your computer to boot to the read/write times of your editing. I would start there.

Yes, it's a great idea. can you tell me if this machine can get 16GB Ram because I do video editing is quite heavy and can you recommend a wifi card that supports Bluetooth 4.0 because I will use it with AirPods and a wireless mouse?
An increase of RAM would have been my first or next suggestion but a quick Google search of your laptap told me the max RAM your laptop will accept is only 8GB ...As far as the wifi cards, I cannot say but I would suggest an external USB dongle for such things as Bluetooth and wifi in a laptop such as yours. If compatible.

Just because the specs state that the max RAM supported is 8GB doesn't mean it can't use more, especially if the CPU you have has microcoding to support more than the overall system specs stated by the manufacturer. I had a Dell inspiron N5110 laptop that I upgraded the CPU to a hyper threaded quad core and upgraded the RAM to 16GB of Gskill RAM even though the specs said it would only support 8GB, it used the full 16GB with no issue.
Upgrade your RAM to 16GB of RAM that is at least the next step in mhz and install a SSD, the larger it is, the faster it will be.
If your CPU is socketed and can be upgraded, upgrade the CPU as well, if your laptop has a CPU that is soldered to the board, you can't upgrade the CPU, most laptops have soldered CPU.

That uses old i5 cpu ...it is a 47ish watt so got to stay in that realm. ASus should have a compatibility matrix for that series .. Every laptop manufacture used a similar build. Lenovo. Dell and others... I am working on 3 lenovo⁸ to replace broken screens. So I sourcing screens can get a HD from better model and I can even go to an 8th generation i7 6700mx from a i3.. replacing mem so I will have 16gb not 4gm...
Buy part laptops of ebay...40 to 100 buks...or I going to use the phones I have w broken screens into my new kali and steam game machines for niece an nephew..
I can tell say the older laptops like yours may be a socket....look up pics for your motherboard on asus ebay..hell thay may be even listed..Asus runs with Dell.. so look for Dell latitude similar model number..
Cool thing is the laptops were all modular.
ALPHA Netwoks makes both NVma and ePCi.wifi and BT cards.. I think yours is the ePcmcia card....that old credit card size things you could expand your laptop with perifials but it is on a card slot...
Good luck
Hi, friend. Usually with the change from mechanical hard disk to ssd a considerable increase in data access speed is achieved, replacing the ram memories with more current ones with greater speed and capacity we also manage to improve speed. Now, you work with video editing, it's hard for me to understand that you're still taking advantage of that veteran Asus, but I see that you're daring and that you're not going to give up easily and I like that hahaha. Personally I recommend you get an intel i7 2670QM and replace it, update all the firmware (possibly you will have already updated the bios, if you haven't already the time has come but there are more upgradable components, do it with everything you can). On the other hand, working mainly with video applications you should replace the graphics card, with that Nvidia Geforce 610M you can't do big things anymore. I can look for a list of compatible graphics if you're willing to update it, but probably by getting one of at least 2Gb, even if it's the same model, you'll already notice a big difference, especially since when it comes to processing the video you won't need to go as far. assiduously to ram memory.
Of course, let's start at the beginning:
Disassemble that notebook, disassemble fans, processors, chipset and everything you can disassemble to replace the thermal putty and thoroughly clean all the equipment because by forcing it a little more the temperature will also be higher.
If you want to go further, reply to the message, I'm already a computer dinosaur but I'm still as passionate as the first day and I wouldn't mind dedicating a few hours to help you.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions, I'm currently using a ThinkPad X1 Carbon, so I'll give this laptop to my brother in the countryside. Anyway, thank you very much, everyone.
