Ok,
I know the question is beaten to death, but the reason is clear there is so much confusion specs gimmickry in Chinese tablet market that I am totally baffled and unable to decide which tablet to choose.
Budget is a concern but of a secondary importance, since I want to get a reliably futureproof and reasonably built tablet.
My preference and wanna haves (kinda) are as follows :
1. A mobile SIM options so it can be used like a mobile phone for calling. 3G is optional.
2. 16:9 screen ration (suggestions for other ration are also welcome)
3. A relatively newer model from 2012-2013
4. Screen Size perferably 7-9 inch
5. IPS HD screen preferred, but anything perceptibly better can be equally welcome.
6. microSD expansion
7. HDMI out
8. USB charging preferred
9. GPS
10. At least the basic sensors like Gyrpscope, 3D Axis, Accelerometer, Light Sersor.
11. Option of having some standardized accessories available, like keyboard folio cover, stands etc
12. Good community and developer following to let me try new Kernels/ROMS (maybe from the XDAdevelopers or other places, please recommend the website where relevant downloads for chinese tablets can be found).
After reading reviews and articles here and there, I have shortlisted the following companies, I know some generic OEM made tablets are also available under these brand names.
In no preferred order, I am thinking of anything from, but your suggestions can be for any other brand based your experiences.
1. Pipo
2. Onda
3 Ramos
4. Icoo
5. CUBE
I know i could dive in Galaxy Tab/Tab 2-3/Note series, but I want to explore the equally good or better Chinese options first.
Your replies and suggestion would be thanked for and appreciated.
Thanks.
