[Q] 8-inch phablet? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Has anyone seen the 64gb 3G version of Samsung Tab 10.1 anywhere?

Has anyone seen the 64gb 3G version of Samsung Tab 10.1 anywhere?
Seems suspiciously missing from the market all over, wondering if I should just settle for the 32gb version if Samsung is not going to release any 64gb versions.
In the UK, the intro of the 32GB and 64GB 3G models have been delayed twice. I know because I'm waiting for a 32GB that I already paid for to be shipped. The current dates are early October for the 32GB and mid-October for the 64GB. There are definately no 64GB anywhere in the world and the only 32GB I've found is in South Africa.
ok, if it helps you .. the 3G version, 32GB was just released in Singapore (Asia) this weekend ..

Hi perrchk, you are refering to the 64GB version?
Still no news from anywhere .. going to wait till mid Oct, before i give up and get the 32GB model

Yupp.. In indonesia 32GB 3G was just out last week
the 8.9" 16GB 3G is coming out launching this weekend
HI VouSDru, actually the question is on the 64GB version rather then the 32 GB version.
i'm starting to think, with all the resources at Samsung focusing on pumping out the 8.9" and 7" inches, they might not even release the 10.1 tab with 64 GB ! .. unfortunately, Samsung is refusing to comment or update on the availability of the 64Gb.

I know bro its about 64GB .. What I am trying to say is that its just a matter of time for 64GB to appear .. since the 32GB took 2 months to appear since 16GB 3G lauching
I think Samsung is less worry about the existence of 64GB .. I am guessing all the resources is focusing in fixing more serious problems of NR/Watermark issues before releasing more products
Resellers in the UK started receiving stock for the 32GB 3G model today. The 64GB is supposed to be available mid-October. I'll have my 32GB next week and I'll post differences between it and the U.S. Wi-Fi version.
I hope they will be also available in germany asap...

Last week in the Czech republic it became available. Only a few were sent to some stores and already sold out.

unfortuntely, there were scratches or dust UNDER the screen, and i had to return it .. now waiting for the replacement unit.

Want to buys tab 10.1, need some advice

Hi there I am looking to buy Samsung tab 10.1
now I see the price and got confused.
1: Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 32GB WiFi White - HD Screen Display, Adobe Flash Support, Honeycomb 3.1, Two Cameras, 1GHz Dual Core Processor.
Cost AU $549.95
2. Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P7510 32GB, Wi-Fi, 10.1in -Gray bluetooth Dual Core
Cost AU $722.10
now there is huge difference in price. the only different I see in both version is GT-P7510. I don't know what its mean. if its worth to pay that much money only for GT-P7510.
Please help me guys and suggest me.
thanks
help much appreciated.
They are both the same thing. Some retailers have more markup than others. Buy the cheapest one you can.
You can get them from Expansys for about $500 with shipping.
Take a survey of the prices in other stores and take the most affordable deal based on the specifications you have in mind.

[Q] Which S3? e210 s L K or i9305??

Hi folks,
i am based in Beijing China and a grey market Korean S3 E210 is actually cheaper then a CHina version (and the mighty Partys love for Google/Play) S3.
But.... which S3? the Korean comes in 3 flavours e210 with S L or K and i really need to be able to use the phone in English (not necessarily the Queens, i m ok with simplified US English too ) and i heard the SLK versions differ in that stuff.
Also, i am at this stage not using 4G LTE as i am waiting for which Band they ll decide in China. so i would for now, run it in 3G mode.
Any idea which one is better suited? If i wanna run JB on it asap since its soo more fluid?
Heard the EU gets their own LTE version with Quad and 2GB hence, o9305 in my line. But that will be around 4600RMB so more then 1200RMB above the Korean version.
Please suggestions... im getting a xiaomi mi2 too end of october but i like the sammis big screen and that somehow the e210 seems to be useble even with MIUI and so on.
I don't know which one, but buy the one without Exynos.

I would imagine that the dev support will be much greater for the i9305, if you care about running custom. But if you don't care about that so much make sure you look at the freq the e210 models use. Each one is different! I made a thread about it because so many people kept asking. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31941726
Well if you want it Abit thicker get the Korean iit also has a dmb which slides out and looks ugly . But if you want exact same look as international then get the i9305

well i9305 is much more expensive in china then the e210. is it really a different form factor? i know the e210 is thicker and rounder cause of the additional LTE chip, is the i9305 same ff as the i9300?
and... i ll be using it with China Unicom in 3G for now and they run a GSM network unlike China Telecom/Mobile so all 3 versions shall work.
how s the english UI in the korean version? dialer and so on?
heard of some issues with sms

the reason its thivker is because of the DMB antenna like i said not the LTE chip, Theres an antenna that slides out of the top of the phone and doesnt look good when its out.
the I9305 is exaclty the same size and look as the I9300 which is why even if its more expensive i will buy this one,
Hi, I'm also in the market for the s3 and just found the korean version online and must cheaper (with the 2gb of RAM - I hate that the Chinese versions are all 1gb).
Did you find out the differences in slk versions.
I guess that you can just install the standard samsung rom to get an english version if necessary no?
You can change language to English. You can't install custom roms/kernels for I9300 on them. Though some devs seem to be working on it.
Sent from SHW-M440S
ok then i wait till i9305 is available in HongKong and the price settles a bit under 4600RMB
otherwise i ll opt for the xiaomi mi2
somehow feel an S3 with 1GB is not up do date in terms of expandibility. Wonder when news on the new Google phone surface and the new HTC X5

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
Arobase40 said:
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... ^^

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...

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... ^^

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..

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.

Where to buy the Galaxy A80

Hello, this is the thread for discussing where to buy this phone and other important info like that
Get the galaxy a80
You will be able to get the galaxy a80 from 29th of May Globally and you may opt for any of the e-commerce platform or any store if it is being sold in your country.
Haven't seen it on showing up as available soon on Clove or the other usual suspects, I'm hopeful that will change soon.
Does it have an exynos version?
Does anyone know if this phone will have an exynos version? Or it's just Snapdragon
There are some NL shops that has stock now. The EAN code on the box is 8801643970666.
