Chinese tablet or Sumvision Cyclone Voyager 2? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Considering a tablet, I've seen tablets like the Pipo M9, Onda, Cube, and others. But this is available locally and for similar price. And being UK supplied I have 12 month warranty plus able to return it free of charge.

Spec wise it looks near identical to the Pipo M9.
Opinions on this tablet? Worth going for this or chinese tablet?

G2 mini pricing

Do you have any information about G2 Mini pricing or availability in Europe ? Lg didn't announce anything about it's price and i'm pretty curious.
Right now the bigger G2 sells for 400 euros here and it's my number 1 choice so far, so around 300 euros for the Mini should be right, i guess
I think that 300 euros is too much. It will be sth around 200-240 euros. Dont forget that oponent for g2m willl be moto g (quite similar specs, prop better screen). If g2m will cost 300 euros like u said then Moto G will be way better choice (and much cheaper) and in price of 300 euros u can find better phones.
I also find it too much, but look at S4 mini which is selling also for 300euros and with same specs. AT launch was even more.
release dates?
does anyone know when and where it will be released world wide? I called a few isp's from rsa and they don't know jack.:silly:
lg l90
In Germany you can currently preorder it for around 320€ in most online shops.
What i wonder about, is that you can already by the lg l90 for 220€, wich is the exactly same phone by all specs,
the only differences are the housing, the battery (wich has even a bigger capacity) and the name...
if the price of the g2 mini will stay, this is just ridiculous!
Pre order issues
I've read that some companies are over pricing in case they under price the device. so in case you preorder it at 199 but lg says its 250 type thing.
Still wanna know when is lg actually releasing this phone.

Contacted LG from my country, they could only confirm that we will receive the device in May, no date or price as yet.
I just bought an LG G2 Mini in Russia it was around 200GBP when converted from Russian Roubles. I am very pleased with it but disappointed it has no LED Notification.
Same here - notification led was a blessing in my Desire S. How's about photo quality? I think it's pretty poor for device of this class...
I bought it for 229 euros, which is a good price in Europe.
From an italian website, glistockisti...i don't know if it delivers abroad (i don't think so).
Other european websites are making a price like 250-300 euros.
I bought mine for 295€.
Compare it to MotoG isn't correct.
G2mini is between MotoG and MotoX.
I chose it for its battery life and i'm not disapointed.
How about performance ? I chose not to buy this G2 Mini and i got a Nexus 4 instead and i''m very happy with this choice.

[Q] will Ebay tablets work inUSA?

I am seeing z2s on ebay and amazon from the UK and Hong Kong. Are they genuine? Will they work in the US in regards to power and ROMs and such? No US speced model listed on Sony site as of yet so im cautious to by one intended for another market. What would need to be done to use it in the US?
There are 3 different models of z2 tablets, wifi only 16gb, 32gb, and wifi+lte 16gb and they all are worldwide as far as i know
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
From what I have read Sony has, wifi only and wifi+LTE model.
From the research I did the wifi+lte model has pretty much every band in it. So it will work in the US on Att and T-mobile.
I received a reply from one of the UK vendors and he said that the charger is 3 prong style not 2 prong and woulld need an adapter. I am assuming the actual tablet electronics would be the same though. Can anybody confirm? Also, is there any reason you could not recieve US updates if is has a UK rom or is it the same thiing. Just worried because my TF201 tablet had different ROMs for each world wide market.
The charger plug is an issue, although minor in my opinion. Bigger issue is warranty.

MediaPad X1 - when it come ?

hello
I cannot find infos when it will arrives
specsifications looks great
it can be use by me as a daily smartphone
I cannot wait longer

There is one retailer who sells it on eBay for 279,99 GBP (or about 339,21 EUR).
Beware as this a 3G version and not the 4G/LTE version.
Otherwise you can try to buy one on aliexpress dot com but this is some kind of a jungle there as prices can vary from as much as US $449.98 (even US $759 ^^) to as low as US $154.28... ^^
So you have to check out if this is a 4G/LTE version, a 3G version or ... maybe... a fake... so check it out twice about the reliability of the retailer as most if not all of them don't accept Paypal payment...
I have not buy anything yet from aliexpress so I have no experience with them : I've heard both about very positive and very negative evaluations...
I'm inquiring my banker about what options I have to be sure I can get my money back in case I don't receive the product or if it the product is not as described.
A few days ago I've seen a thread on XDA about a review of this Huawei Honor Mediapad X1 product and about the low prices, but sounds like this thread has been deleted or moved, so I can't retrieve any feedbacks from those who tried to buy it at low cost... ^^

Arobase40 said:
It just depends on your wearing... If you wear regular pants even just as with Docker pants, you can't carry it with you, unless you have a bag with you.
But if you have sport,mountain, fishing pants with large side pockets or a jacket with large pockets it's not a problem...
I've got the first Galaxy Tab 7" from Samsung (GT-P1000) thicker and heavier than the Mediapad X1 and it was very nice.
Then with the Galaxy tab 7.7, I've got to have systematically a small rucksack with me... ^^
That's the reason, I want to buy this Mediapad X1 as Samsung didn't released any good 7" pad anymore. Since the very first GT-P1000/GT-1010, Samsung's 7 inches pads are still with a crappy 1024x600 display resolution...

too expensive it s a joke.
U ll see the price when it ll be launch on US market and eiropeen market => 400 € or more
Arobase40 said:
I thought you would understand the hints in my conversation with cmcc13901753700...
I can't say for sure as I haven't decided yet where and which version to buy, but as most Huawei use more or less the same SOC (Hisilicon Kirin 910) you can have a look here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373814
or other links to other Huawei products... Ask to be sure and maybe cmcc13901753700 can confirm or infirm if this is a reliable source or not... ^^
---------- Post added at 04:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------
At present time, the price on aliexpress or To2c is about US $353.99 or even cheaper for the 3G version so about 256 €, when sciphone sells the same product for 305 € (so about US $ 421 for a 3G version)...
And this is a chinese website retailer, NOT a US or European retailer. So guarantee isn't better than aliexpress or To2c as if we have any problems the product has to be sent to Chine or so... ^^

No ....To2C is ok.....i have made many orders from there for me and my family and is very reliable...im waiting mediapad for my wife now..
i hear that there was a wi-fi only planned by huawei, is there any truth to this?? i would prefer a non phone function but i will take a wi-fi only if its later available.

Thé 4G/LTE version came out officially 2 days ago in China, so you can order it on the web but they'll ship the phones only next week as the first three days of May are off in China !
For your information, the 4G/LTE chinese version should work with the. 4G/LTE networks of your countries
Can't wait to get mine !

I have been trying to buy one this week. I cancelled my order when it turned out it was for the 503L Chinese version with TDD LTE only which doesn't work here in the UK. There will be an international version 501L with FDD LTE and TDD LTE available soon which does.
All the models are
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-501
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-501L
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-501g
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-502L
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-503L
Huawei MediaPad X1 7.0 7D-504L
I have not found on the web exactly what the differences are but they are 3g or 4g.
Its also called Honor X1, Glory
Have a nice day,
Looks like the 4G version is available now if: you live in Guangdong Province and want it on a China Unicom contract - so no use to most of us
However, it does look like there's a 'flash' sale of contract free X1s next week for Chinese residents. Again, not much use although you can be sure many scalpers and Taobao and Aliexpress agents will be buying them up to sell on/abroad. At 1,999 RMB ($320USD) it's only $30USD up on the 3G variant, although these are obviously local prices.
I guess it may be a month or two before they are on open sale at least. I've still yet to see the 3G version on open sale on either Huawei's own website or in local phone stores despite it being released (in staggered flash sales) for around a month now.
As for the device itself, the 3G version I got a few weeks back is excellent value. Good feel in the hand, not too heavy, and fantastic build quality. The stock EMUI was a bit laggy in places out-of-the-door but there have been 4 OTA updates already so it's clearly being worked on. I run Nova instead and it is fine. Still, it could do with moving to 4.4 rather than the 4.2 that it is at the moment. Next to my 5s, it's crazy to think this is 30% of the price for what you get. I'd put this up there with the OnePlus One (however impossible it might be to acquire one of those) in terms of bang-for-buck. Reading, movie-watching, browsing and gaming are all great and the battery lasts forever. Just wish I could move the power button but have managed to adjust my grip to avoid accidental depressions.
One thing: the Honor brand is mainly for China. I think it'll be known as MediaPad X1 in foreign markets.
The version of the Huawei Mediapad X1 4G i bought is FDD-LTE so it'll work with the french 4G networks (i'm in France obviously..
Can't wait to get this phablet, from what i've been reading so far on the web, this phone is a killer ! I just hope that some devs will start to bring us some good customs roms ! not just a cyanogen rom...
And for those who already got this phone, what about the external speaker ? it seems great from what i heard (DTS technology built-in), can we make the comparaison with the external speaker of the HTC One ?
Would be great if someone could make a full review of this phone ? I know i will when i'll get it
Really hope this is a hit so they make more. It has everything I want with 7in 1080 screen, large battery and sd card. Only problem I have is the cpu which needs to be updated. Think I'll end up passing on this one unless I could find someone that trade it for my GN2.

[Q] 8-inch phablet?

Hi
I own an Asus Fonepad (7-inch phablet), and wanted to know whether you'd heard about a 8-inch phablet?
I found the Fonepad 8 (http://www.asus.com/Tablets/ASUS_Fonepad_8_FE380CG/), but could not find where to buy it. Moreover it does not sport 4G/LTE.
Are there any other models on the market?
Thanks
I've got the Samsung Galaxy TabPro 8.4 SM-T325 (LTE)
Perhaps that is an option? Another is the Tab S 8.4" LTE.
They are the only two 7-9" phablets on the market with a 2K screen and MicroSD slot. (In Europe, anyway.)

I'm also looking for a link to purchase a fonepad 8 FE8030 cg with 2gb ram. the Samsung Galaxy TabPro 8.4 SM-T325 (LTE) is for me no alternative, because it does not support dual sim.
Thanks for your replies. I am looking for an 8-inch PHablet thus, not a tablet. Meaning I need phone capabilities, as in my Fonepad.
Heard of something on this side?
Thanks

It's available it many countries in asia region, you should be able to find it from local sellers. Since you didn't mention from which part of the world you come from I'll drop a few links.
www .amazon.com/Fonepad-Unlocked-FE380CG-Dual-SIM-Quad-Core/dp/B00PY29DIY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1425308485&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+fonepad+8 (USA)

If you are from one of those regions (Germany, Russia, etc) with 1GB Ram & 8GB storage, you should probably import the device with 2GB/16GB from Asia.
Hope this helps.
P.S: Newbie here, can't post links.

As far as I know, the Mate 10 has the most complete radio available on any 'phone - that is, it covers more bands than any other 'phone that's available today (or possibly ever).
One comment I'd make is to go for the ALP-AL00 and make sure the seller can install the ALP-L29 (international) firmware onto it before sending it to you. I know all of the sellers on AliExpress will do this as a matter of course, but I refuse to deal with Amazon so can't comment on their suppliers. The ALP-AL00 gives you the 6Gb of RAM and 128Gb of internal storage that the Mate 10 Pro has, but also gives you all the benefits of the "standard" Mate 10 (i.e., headphone socket, QHD 16:9 LCD display [no worries about OLED burn-in], front-mounted fingerprint scanner and support for additional storage [up to 256Gb MicroSD]).
