I bought this Tab yesterday & found it very good & value for money. As it is 8" type, I could not locate a case/cover for this. I hope some company will come up with a swivel cover for this....soon.
ReplyDeleteThe Tab came pre-loaded with almost all applications & seamlessly connects to internet via Wi-Fi Or Tata Photon+ 3G USB Dongle. Also, I have connected my USB drive (Pendrive) and it identified as a external storage. I could play music & videos from the USB drive. There is a mini HDMI out port on this tab, from which it can be connected to LED/LCD TV (I have not tested this, yet) For this you need to buy an extra HDMI cable with Mini HDMI on one side, as it is not a standard supply.
The rear camera quality is average from a 3MP camera, but the front camera is good for video chatting. I had installed Skype for Android & could do video chatting very easily. Descent performance in this price range.
Battery drains is OK for normal usage, but drains faster with weaker signals of WiFi, which is well expected. This supports USB charging, so battery discharging is not an issue to worry about.
The g sensor works very well for 3D gaming.
The YouTube was getting closed unexpectedly with the starting of YouTube Videos every time. This could be an application issue. That is the only negative I could figure out so far.
Overall a very good inexpensive tab (INR 6.5k) value for your money spent for general purpose usage.
