    Are the "Ordered for collection" reservations likely to be fulfilled? I have reservation code, pickup Dec 1-3.


  • Registered Users Posts: 716 ✭✭✭sue97


    Would love a code for Dublin if anyone has one to spare. Thanks,


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 96 ✭✭vagazzled


    Ditto for Dublin , I'm sorry it won't reserve for me. Looks like it would be a great e-reader.
    I tried several times to 'reserve it in store for pickup 30th- 2nd Dec' but it kept going round in hoops, at the end f the process saying No order was made etc. Ah well, i'm sure there will be some good 'Black Friday' deals around on tablets if these are sold out.
    @procrastinator - wouldn't give me a code! Good luck!

    thanks OP, i just ordered one.

    I hesitated at first, because pre-kitkat (4.4), the webview used to render apps on Android tablets was based on Webkit, so app performance was unpredictable because of the quirks in Webkit.
    From kitkat onwards, apps are rendered using a webview based on Chromium (chrome) so they perform much better.
    But while the webview under kitkat is based on Chromium(32 or so), under Lollipop(5.0) the webview is updated from the Play Store every 6 weeks along with chrome on the desktop. So there is typically a big difference in app performance between pre-kitkat and post-lollipop. This tablet is based on pre-kitkat.

    However, according to this page, it will get updated to kitkat.

    I am of course assuming the code is A8-50 A5500 , as according to this page, the
      -Lenovo A5500-F - Wi-Fi only (Mediatek MT8121)
      -Lenovo A5500-H - Wi-Fi + 3G (Data only)
      -Lenovo A5500-HV - Wi-Fi + 3G (Voice)

    has the same specs as the one from Argos, unless I'm mistaken.

    In any case, I shall be installing this custom ROM for lollipop.
