Need a 9.7" tablet - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I wanted a 9.7" tablet but not sure what to go for so would appreciate your help. This would be my first ever tablet!
I want something to read books on and play game/surf web/watch youtube etc, budget is $220 USD. I've done some research and have narrowed it down too (prices I got online added next to each tablet):
Ampe A90 $210
(has 1.2Ghz A10 CPU; 1GB DDR3 Ram and 16GB internal storage, plus 7000mAh battery)
ONDA VI40 $220
(has 1.5Ghz A10 CPU; 1GB DDR3 Ram and 16GB internal storage, plus 5000mAh battery)
ICOO D90w $218
(has 1.2Ghz A10 CPU; 1GB DDR3 Ram and 16GB internal storage, plus 5000mAh battery)
Cube u9gt2 $209
(has 1.2Ghz Rockchip CPU; 1GB DDR3 Ram and 8GB internal storage, plus 8000mAh battery)
Ployer Momo11 $200
(has 1.5Ghz A10 CPU; 1GB DDR3 Ram and 16GB internal storage, plus 7800mAh battery)
Given that there prices are so close which would you go for

If you are looking for something with dev support, meaning custom ROMs, you can get an HP Touchpad for this price if you look around online. It has a 1.2ghz Dual Core Snapdragon S3, 1GB of RAM and around a 6000mAh battery.

surely the Chinese tablets would have dev support and are better specs wise?

The Ampe A90 seems better though as it has extra 8GB internal storage but this has a Rock CPU compared to an A10. Not sure if there is a difference as the speeds seem the same.

Anyone else?
Im thinking its either the Onda Vi40 Elite, Cube U9GT2 or the Ampe.
Leaning towards the Onda.

Ended up getting the vi40 for £153 from the UK. Looking forward to it.

Not on your list, but I highly recommend cchecking out the Advent Vega.

i m worried about one thing - battery. 4 hours of usage isn´t much but it is worse if charging is long.

Chrome OS RAM usage

I bought a used Dell 3010 Chromebox. It came with 2gb of RAM. The CPU is the Intel Celeron 2955U (2M Cache, 1.40 GHz) and it had a 16gb SSD.
I had been using an old Dell 1545 laptop with CloudReady loaded. The old laptop had 4gb of ram, an Intel Core 2 Duo T9500 CPU and 120gb SSD drive. After now using a real Chrome OS system on the Chromebox, I can say that the CloudReady experience is very very similar to the genuine Chrome OS system.
In using the Dell Chromebox, there seemed to be some lags between clicking on a link and display of the webpage.
The Chromebox, with 2gb of RAM, seem to hesitate when starting new operations.
I added another 2gb of RAM to the empty second RAM slot. The Chromebox now has 4gb of RAM. The upgraded Chromebox seems much faster and more responsive. I would recommend upping any Chrome OS system that is upgradeable to at least 4gb of RAM.
I have also upgraded the 16gb M.2 SSD to 32gb just to have more local storage for a documents and music.
Yesterday I learned about a Chrome utility called "SYSTEM". I loaded it from the Chrome store.
The SYSTEM utility shows RAM usage.
When I open several tabs (2 to 4), the Chrome OS system is using 3gb to 3.5gb with available RAM at 1gb or 0.5gb.
So it appears that a Chromebook/Chromebox needs more than 2gb of RAM or will use more than 2gb of RAM for simple tasks.
I have ordered a 4gb SODIMM and will see if the RAM usage goes up with 6gb of available RAM (with a 2gb SODIMM and a 4gb SODIMM lnstalled).
Finally I ran Octane 2.0 on the Dell 3010 Chromebox (Intel Celeron 2955U CPU. 4gb RAM and 32gb M.2 SSD). It's connected through an HDMI connection to a Dell E2414H monitor. Resolution 1600x900. I'm running this resolution to get larger fonts on menus. 1920x1080 is just too small for me.
The Octane score is 12436.
After installing a 4gb SODIMM alongside the 2gb SODIMM, for a total of 6gb of ram, the SYSTEM app reports that the Dell Chromebox is pretty consistently using 2.5gb to 3.5 gb of memory.
Two good Chrome apps that let you monitor memory usage are the apps "System" and "Cog".
The Chromebox uses...
**RAM: 2gb, 4gb or 8gb in any combination up to a total of 16gb.
DDR3L PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz non-ECC Unbuffered CL11 204-Pin SoDimm 1.35V Low Voltage.
**SSD Card: 16gb, 32gb, 64gb or 128gb
42mm SATA III (6G) M.2 2242 NGFF SSD
**Wifi:
My Dell Chromebox 3010 uses AC wifi. The wifi card is a dual band Intel AC-7260 with Bluetooth 4.0. This AC wifi card would also probably be supported in the Asus Chromebox, which ships with N wifi.
Thanks for the info, I'm in the market for my first Chromebook and was wondering about this. Most of the filters are for either 4, 8, or 16GB; so would you recommend 8 at this point?

How to remove the fake specification from the tablet?

Hello friends!
Recently I bought a chinese tablet Fugn C-30. At the first inspection, I found out that there is much less battery. Then after trying a bunch of utilities from google play, SD Insignt showed that instead of 64GB ROM there is a Toshiba 016G94 16GB memory card. And it seems there instead of 4 GB of RAM there is only 1GB. A pair of other utilities claims that there is a quad-core CPU instead of an octa core... :crying:
And I had a question. How can I get to the actual specifications? How to make the system display truthful information?
I would really appreciate your help. :angel:

Mecool KM8 P 1gb/8gb ram upgrade?

Hello,
The box i'm talking about, has 1gb of ram, which i'd like to expand. On the internet, i could get hands on a 2gb ddr3 ram chip, similar to the ram chips on the board. On the board are 2 chips ddr3 each 512Mb. About 200Mb is used for the gpu i think. This leaves 800Mb for the os. Now i have a chinese heatgun with small nozzle. It can go to 1000degrees celsius(the display shows this). Now my question is how do i install the extra ram chip without destroying the board?
Grtz,
Mark-1978
