[Q] Looking for a chinese android phone recommendation? - General Questions and Answers

Hi I am looking for a recommendation on a CHINESE android phone.
I have been looking at the NEO N003 Premium but I have read on here it has loads of problems and it only lets you use 2gb to install apps.
I am looking for a 32gb (to install apps on) quad core phone with 2gb of ram and long battery life. Also a 1080p 5 inch screen. I want it to support MHL HD out and OTG. I want this phone to play games and watch movies and listen to music (good quality speaker and headphone jack) Any one point me towards the best phone I should buy that is a good build, strong glass screen and good camera with a flash. I dont want a one with ghost touching problems. I just want to root this phone to play free games and emulators. and download torrents. Also I am on the 3 network so one that supports 3G in the uk. Im looking to spend £200 to £300 on this CHINESE phone so could someone please recommend a good phone which wont break down after a month . I bought the feiteng H9500+ last time from CHINAand it broke down and stopped charging and cant get it fixed in the UK

cheap 7" android tablets

uk buyer looking for an inexpensive entry to the world of tablets.
am looking for a device primarily for web browsing, media with dlna, & ebooks. i've no need for gps, bluetooth or 3g connectivity.
so, thinking i would just wait for the kindle fire to get a uk release & then hack a fresh rom into it, i'm seeing many alternatives appearing in the same sub £200 bracket & welcome suggestions for essentially a solid wi-fi enabled tablet with a half decent resolution & the technical capability & support to take a custom rom.
been looking at the TABTRONICS - A10 M009SC http://tinyurl.com/83mfk62 & NATPC M009S http://tinyurl.com/7v9hgl7 which both appear no-thrills solutions but are they capable?
i see xoom's are down in price but i really cannot justify a big spend on a device i'm certainly wanting but can't say i need. hehe, don't we all say that
any suggestions welcomed
Hi, I played with a NATPC M009S today, my housemate just bought one as a gift. I was impressed for the price that is for sure, the screen and interface were quite fast, although not perfect. The browser seemed fine, although I didn't try any flash videos. Angry birds played smoothly, but fruit ninja felt a little slow.
As far as custom ROMs go I wouldnt hold your breath, I cant find any other mention of the device on here besides this post. Same goes for any kind of support in general really. The box it came in had a logo of a company called GPAD, more info might be available searching for that.
The device has:
Android 2.3.4
Power socket from a plug
mini B usb port (can charge over this too)
"TF" card slot, not worked this out yet, presumably SD will work
Mini HDMI out (not tested)
Any other questions feel free to ask me
Nookcolor, you can install cm7 on it, for $200 its one hell of a tablet, there's a lot of support here for the nookcolor, check out some you tube vedios or look at cyanogenmod website

Any progress on this?
I am looking for a £100 ish tablet.
Based in UK so Nook colour doesnt seem to be available here.
Looking for one that can be rooted and upgraded with ROMS etc.
Any advice?
There's this touchBox thing I've had... Can't post a link though. Still trying to get 10 posts in order to post updates about ICS on Galaxy. :/
I cant seem to find anything on this touchbox?
Any other info you can give?

When you buy a Tablet.
Don’t buy the cheapest but the best
If you are willing to wait for a UK release of the Kindle Fire, then I would do it. First of all, stock isn't bad, but there is a fully functioning build of CM7 for the Fire, as well as MIUI, and best of all, there is a build of ICS, that only has a few issues left to be resolved before it is fully functioning, and it is good enough that most people use it daily now, including my self. Plus, if you just want to stay on the stock interface, it is very easy to root and install the market, to open it up a little. Also, TWRP2 is a an awesome recovery, and works really well. This is a great device for the money, and the development/support for it is fantastic.
Take a look on this ubislate.com. ubislate 7+ model. I bet its worlds cheapest. 3200 inr. Which is 65 us $!!!!
700mhz, usb storage/host. Resistive 7 inch, 2.3.7 ,2gb internal, wifi,bluetooth.. no 3g( well u can plugin a 3g modem/usb 3g stick. Made in india. Heavy rating. Only prebooking for march is available. Stocks went out like wind. Well u cant get an ipod nano for that price. Can u???

The best advice one can give.
If you buy a small, underpowered tablet, you will quickly realize the shortcomings and will end up spending more on a better tablet.
This rule applies to just about anything from pocket knives to laptops.
I have just purchased the "NATPC M009S 8GB Capacitive Android 4.0 (ICE CREAM SANDWICH) , 7" , 1.6 GHz Super Slim Android Tablet PC with Responsive Capacitive Screen" for £110 on Amazon. Put that title in.
The device is amazing for the money. Full custom ROM set (Seby) and the amazon discussion has lots of help.
HDMI out works perfectly and the screen is super smooth.
I got a nook color and a nook simple touch at USD149.00.
BTW, there are tablets sold at amazing low price in China. Of course you can not hope any support from the seller. That's why I didn't choose one like that....
Eagle Eye Tablet
There is a new release of cheap tablet here in UAE from a Canadian company (Eagle Eye). The tablet was of course made in China. Specs as follows: 7" LCD capacitive multi-touch screen, 1.2Ghz Single Core processor based on Cortex A8 with Mali 400 GPU, 512MB RAM, 8GB built in flash memory (expandable up to 32GB microSD card), 1.3MP webcam for video chat like Skype (front only), Android 4.0.3 ICS OS, HDMI out, mini USB with OTG cable included (PC connection and charging also), USB 2.0 host, Wifi 802.11 b/g/n, some pre-installed apps like Google Play store (full access), Super HD player that plays most video format up to 2160p, file manager, browser (HTML and full flash support), music player (I changed mine with PowerAmp and working perfectly) but no bluetooth (external 3G not mentioned if supported and I haven't tested also). The price is only 399AED or US$108.

Yes it does seem a good buy given the reviews. Latest has double the memory at 16gb for £5 more, hence me buying one!

I think its best to wait slightly. SmartQ T15, T19, T20 are the first dual core china tablets. Its getting favorable attention at Slatedroid
I bought a 16GB NATPC M009S for £70 on Amazon. It was "Used - Good Condition" from the seller of the new tablets. I got her assurance that this would mean just minor scratches, so I thought "What the hell, worth a go!". I must say that I'm very impressed. After I ordered it I thought "What have I done!", but it's brilliant (when I can get my hands on it - the kids like it a bit too much).
It's running ICS 4.0.3, came pre-rooted (which I wasn't expecting) and handles most things well. The HDMI out works well and the videos run smoothly. It's got expandable micro SD memory, 1GB RAM and on the whole works smoothly. Not as smooth as a much more expensive branded tablet, I dare say, but then this was a sacrifice I was willing to make rather than have no tablet at all.
The internet seems a bit slow, I use Dolphin by choice, but I've heard that there's a tablet version of Dolphin, so will see if that improves things!
It was such a positive purchase that a couple of weeks after I purchased a similar but slightly lower spec tablet (8GB 512MB RAM and no HDMI out - also Used Good Condition from the same seller) for the staggeringly low price of £30. I can't believe it, in some ways it is better than the original one (running ICS 4.0.4).
I used to think that you had no chance of getting anything even half decent in the tablet market for that kind of money, but here I am with two perfectly good devices for £100 for the pair!
I'm interested to see what ROM's are available. If I'm right it's anything that is for a MID tablet?
Anyway, happy hunting!

Best Android Tablet under $200?

Hi everyone,
Looking for best tablet under $200. I guess that price falls under the chinese versions? I don't mind as long as it's proven to work. ***Really not sure why tablets are $600 or so while tablets and laptops are much cheaper (speak of price gouging).
So, please give me your experience with cheaper tablets. I have seen many of them on places like dhgate.com but really it's way too many of them so I can't decide which has a good reputation or not.
Thanks

For now, I have to give a nod to the 10" screen Lepan which has been running for $199. at Walmart The issue with this unit is only 512 of ram and Android 2.2. I use it as my portable web access in the house that also has its own built in GPS, so I use it out in the field as my Nav unit. Not a bad unit and it will run like 6 hours of video, if I remember correctly is has a 6000 mah battery. Like I said I use it for the web and for games for my 5 year old. But it all depends on what you want to use the tablet for.
Depends on the size you're looking for. For the 7" platform, I'd personally wait for the Google branded pad to come out. Rumor has it, it'll be an nvidia tegra3 running the latest AndroidOS with common tablet specs, for $199.
Reason I'd hesitate to get a kindle fire is the lack of external sd slot.
Thanks for the input guys.
Sorry, I forgot some main points:
1- It must run Android (One of the latest ones - upgradeable to ICS and Rooting capability is a bonus)
2- It would be really really great if it has at least a front facing camera (front and back would be just perfect).
***Can't wait for Google Pad as I have to buy now.
Thanks
I say you should try the viewsonic g tablet. Not the best screen but when rooted its worth it. you can find then on ebay or craigslist for $150-$200.

Both Viewsonic G Tablet and Le Pan II seems to be great options. But let's focus on cons:
Le Pan II: Apparently has wifi issues (That is no cool). Not rootable yet?!
gTablet: Missing GPS and G-Sensor. Has only 512 MB RAM and runs Android 2.2. Missing Microphone.
But, I am already leaning towards gTablet despite all missing parts. I am hoping I can add a USB microphone to it? (that is also my requirement.)
P.S. I can't seem to find any Le Pan II on the market. Everyone is out. Is it a hot item or was taken off-shelf due to Wifi issues?
Thanks again
Best Android tablet under $200
If you want a 7 inch that will be upgraded to ICS, and has GPS and camera, check out the Lenovo A1. It can be had well under $200

[Q] I need help buying my first tablet

Hi everyone, I made an account to this forum to ask some questions before investing money on to a tablet.
The tablet I've set my eyes on is the "ALL FINE FINE7 Air 16gb", finding any information whatsoever on this tablet is extremely difficult, mostly because of the name I believe. This tablet is around 115 US dollars, and supposedly comes with Jellybean 4.1.
I was wondering if investing money on this thing was a good idea, I'm really worried that I'll buy one and it'll end up with a dead battery, end up being slow, or the screen might be bad, etc.
There's only one video in the entire internet I could find on this tablet too. (just google the name and it'll come up)
It's either this tablet, or save up a little more to get a Nexus 7. Now, most people would ask, "why would you choose a chinese tablet over a Nexus 7?". Well, that's because of two reasons, first of all, this thing has a camera in the front AND in the back, and I need the two of them for video chatting, and second, I am an avid gamer, infact I don't do much of anything else on android devices other then play games, and the Mali400 Mp that this tablet is carrying, is either more powerful then the Nexus 7 GPU, or is better optimized.
And I'm worried that when I get the tablet, it won't be optimized for a lot of games, and I won't be able to play them.
So is it the chinese tablet or the nexus? Thanks!
Allfine? All fine!
I bought an Allfine 7 from Focalprice.com just to see if it is a good and reliable tablet. Mine is a 7 inch quad core.
The tablet came rooted and everything is working properly.
I don't have anyone else to ask, but the battery seems to drain in 4,5-5 hours when on WiFi.
Other than that applications that I am not allowed to install from Play Store, I install from Blackmart Alpha.
So, all fine for Allfine :good:
Cheers from Athens, Greece.

Not sure what to get?

Hey guys, been a while since I've posted anything.
Basically, grabbed myself a beautiful Samsung 42 inch TV and now I want to use more than it's built in USB feature...whilst it is nice, it doesn't support .mkv and .flacs....so I was doing my researches and found this but I am a tad stuck.
What would you guys recommend? Honestly, I want something that will comfortably play 1080p from being streamed from my computer into the device...plus it will be connected to a 120mbit fibre network anyway for when I want to stream movies instead...so, what do I get? Something to start me off? Something reliable, preferably...just anything anyone coculd recommend would be great! Or even making my own!?
Will be great to hear your feedback! Thanks!
If I were you, I'd get the UG008 Android mini PC. It's the evolution of the UG007 and has a couple of nice things over the 007--a physical power button and an external WiFi antenna.
The Minix Neo X5 is probably the best device with a rk3066 chip in it but with rk3166 devices starting to show up it might be worth waiting for the reviews to come in before spend cash on something that might have WiFi and other hardware issues, this is probably why I'll wait for MINIX Neo X7 in a couple of months...
