I think the ones with that VIA8650 chip are the worst of the cheap ones out there, and a lot of them reviews need to be taken with a pinch of salt, very easy for sellers to stick a few 'reviews' up on their websites, forums etc. and create a good impression.

There are some apparently decent tablets out there at cheap prices, but there are even more clones of the good ones so it is a bit of a minefield.

Am still waiting on the DX one to ship, so will let ye know if is any use if it gets here before Christmas!!!

lol， the shipping time of DX and focalprice really bores me too much:mad:

eamonnq · 17-09-2011 08:00AM

Yeah, on the cheap stuff I tend to forget about it and then when a package arrives I can't even remember what I ordered, but they have shipped the tablet now so I will be checking the tracking every 5 mins!!!

Fools to buy any item valued at more than a fiver from China, i see the future, and you will regret these tablets

eamonnq · 17-09-2011 08:14AM

Not at all, I have bought plenty of stuff, even a few tablets and was quite happy with them. Once you don't expect an Ipad for the money you pay they are well worth it.

Have a 10in 32gb pad on the way from China also.

Yes, agree with you
when you buy from these sites, you must consider more
can you bear the shipping time or what kind of products you want:)

Shipping time is usually better than I expect, but they can never get here quick enough!!!

and you have to allow for a few days in customs too on the more expensive stuff

That is the truth, if you choose cheap stuffs, you may choose the slow shipping speed and need to wait a long time
if you choose fast shipping, you may spend more
everything has its good point and bad points,it depends:P

frist time drinking in 2 months last nite checked my email this morning and i found that i bought this it was only €65 for everything.

I guess it could be worse could have bought an overpriced HP touchpad on ebay
will do a review when i get it

The only thing on that one is that it has the VIA8650 chip which as far as I know is not the best.

Got my 10in 32gb from China yesterday and am pleasantly suprised with it so far!!

bittihuduga · 22-09-2011 03:50PM

@eamonnq: which one did you go for? any linky?

That's the 7" one, we're interested in this 10" 32gb beastie he mentioned!

eamonnq · 22-09-2011 05:13PM

Jaysus lads, let me play around with it a bit more before I give my final verdict. Don't want to send ye off buying something that packs in after a few days!!

Might be selling my one as I just got my credit card statement, all these little bargains add up!!!

Now in the market we have android 2.3, the version of 2.2will lose its market soon, I prefer this
7" ones

eamonnq · 23-09-2011 09:35AM

Nice one!! now I have another tempting offer instead!!

poochiem · 23-09-2011 11:06AM

Has anyone bought from http://www.myefox.com/ ? Some of the stuff seems to be fairly well spec'd at low prices but I haven't seen reviews so not taking the plunge.

eamonnq · 24-09-2011 07:23AM

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm................some smells a bit fishy to me!!

I would steer well clear!!!

http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/myefoxcom-c449711.html

Now I know every company will end up with complaints and complaints are a lot easier to find than good things being said about a company, but I would not be going near them, especially when there are other companies that supply similar things at similar prices.

A few newbies registering to post about the company also sets off alarm bells!!

ThunbergsAreGo · 25-09-2011 05:21PM

What do people think of this? The Yarvik TAB250

http://www.google.com/search?q=yarvik+tab250&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-ie:IE-SearchBox&ie=&oe=

Looks good for the price but i am no expert on these things. Interested in a lowish budget tablet

ThunbergsAreGo · 26-09-2011 07:50AM

[/QUOTE]
never heard about this one？This is a new brand？or i am out[/QUOTE]

Must be, i cant find any reviews (apart form one very positive one). I think its a Dutch company,

very tempted to take the plunge, if i decide that 7 inch is big enough

10in one is very good, 32gb, with 2 USB slots and a micro sd slot, only issue is wifi range is not great (but there are some tweaks that I have yet to try which are meant to improve it).

Got my 7 inch andriod tab and flashed it with a slick new operating system called Uberoid which I got online. Its a Honeycomb Hybrid. Got the tab for 46 euro on ebay and flashing the rom was easy.

I even have the offical android market app on it. The OS you get a standard is sh*te and the android market app on it is not the legit one but a B*stardised version of it.

These tabs dont support skype tho so be warned. Fring barely works on them for video too but fring is grand for voice chat.

Savage ebook reader and great for watching AVIs. Bat life is ok too tho. Depends on your tech spec.

This is the 10in one that I got, flashed it with a new rom and am fairly happy with it, have not had time to play around with it much, battery life seems decent, wifi is a bit weak but I think that can be tweaked.

EDIT: I did not buy from this ebay seller, and am in no way recommending him as I have had no dealings or connection with him.
