It also comes with GooglePlay preinstalled [although the official website states they are still searching for Google approval], and GetJar.

I liked a lot the 4:3 form factor, and also I liked that once connected to the computer I could see its memory as a disk drive, as opposed to Asus tf300t where you can navigate only through Windows Explorer. Skype, eReaders, video streaming, games, etc. worked excelent.

The only reason I didn't keep this tablet was that its display's fidelity was not quite great, otherwise it think it has the best cost-benefit ratio on the market.

Anyone compared comic reading on 16:10 and 4:3 tablets?

Used to have an asus transformer, but I always read comics in landscape because I find the 10 inch 16:10 screen to be to narrow.

Add Karbonn Smart Tab 8 to the list too.

I reup this thread because i'm looking for a 4:3 tablet, and in these days are going out the Acer Iconia A1 7,9" 4:3 (interesting device imho)
[Android General] aniym:
I recentlY bought the Lenovo S2109 refurbished from the Lenovo outlet (US) for 160USD plus tax. It's a fantastic price, even though the specs are decidedly 2011 at best. It's running 4.0 and the ROM community is basically non existent, but I love it. OMAP 4430 isn't the fastest , but I generally only do web browsing and PDF a magazine reading and it performs those tasks very well. Unlike the 16:10 A2109 model, this product has more or less been discontinued by Lenovo and won't see further updates. I doubt it'll be on the market for much longer.

I really hope there will be another 4:3 tablet (Android or x86 Windows) sometime soon. After using a 16:10 tablet for so long, and comparing it to a 4:3, I completely understand Apple's decision To go with the former.
[Android General] dark_mirage:
If your resolution is significantly higher in one direction than the other, your tablet is not 4:3, so 90% of these suggestions are false.
[Android General] aniym:
Not sure what you mean. Figuring out whether a tablet is 4:3 or not isn't rocket science , it's literally the division of the pixel height by the pixel width. The most common 4:3 resolutions on tablets are 1024x768 and 2048x1536. I don't think ive seen any tablets in this thread that aren't 4:3.

Does anyone know the release date of the Acer A1-810 7.9 inch tablet here in the USA? I know its out just about everywhere but here....
[Android General] aniym:
This has been available in the US and Canada for about a month, as far as I can tell. Reviews are available as well. Performance is OK, screen isn't great (contrast/viewing angles), battery life is average, so maybe 5-6 hours.

I'm hoping a mod community will spring up around it soon, but since it's priced at $199 and not $169 as initially thought, it will struggle against the Nexus 7, which is a FAR better tablet in every respect except for screen size and aspect ratio.
[Android General] rumatt:
I have the new Nexus 7 and I find myself desperately wanting a 4x3 tablet. 16x10 just doesn't work for me.

Do you guys think the Acer Iconia A1-810 is the best option for non-apple 4x3? Or go for one of the generic ebay models? Wait for something coming down the pipe?

I'm not particularly impressed by the Acer's specs but wondering whether it's worth a shot just to have something with an aspect ratio that doesn't drive me nuts.
[Android General] Brodrost:
I bought the A1-810 a couple of weeks ago.

The screen isnt anything to write home about, but its an excellent "couch tablet".

The screen size and ratio is a BIG step up from the nexus 7. I mainly use it for comics and reading, so I dont know how it delivers on games and other intensive tasks. The wifi is 5-10 megabits faster in downstream compared to my old Nexus 7. Better button placement, "power" on top and "volume" on the right. Feels snappy. Battery is fine. Micro SD and hdmi is nice.

I have no idea how Acer delivers on updates, but it comes with stock (almost, an extra "touch to wake up" feature) android 4.2 and there was an OTA update waiting when I started using it.

I would have preferred a really high end 4:3 android tablet, but this is the best one to my knowledge.

295$ here in Sweden.

HP appears to be coming out with a Tegra 4-based 4:3 8 inch tablet, with a resolution of 1600x1200. Hopefully more details will be out soon, but so far all that's available are some benchmarks and the name: Slate 8 Pro. Sounds like a Windows tablet, but will almost certainly be Android, like the Slate 7 was.
[Android General] frazefast:
I have the GoClever R83.3 8" Android tablet. I do love the 4.3 ratio but I wish I knew a way to change it to 16.9 when streaming video to my TV via HDMI so as to get rid of those black borders.

A1-810 will be on sale for blackfriday ~ $99. There is a rooting page in xda but didnt see any success reports. Anyone has luck with flash in this tablet? For the price, you cant beat this.
[Android General] Brodrost:
Thats an awesome price! I would recommend anyone to get it as an extra screen for the kitchen/bedroom or whatever. If I lived in the US I would pick up a few to give as Christmas presents. And maybe one more for me as a wall mounted kitchen tablet. :)

Recently been using mine with Plex and a 3$ stand to watch tv-series when doing the dishes or playing computer games.
[Android General] rumatt:
I just bought one of these today and I have to say I'm impressed! The resolution is kinda crappy and it's on the slow side.... But I LOVE THE 4x3 aspect ratio. I will not buy another tablet unless it is 4x3.

I own a Note 8 and it's going on sale. I will either keep this Acer Iconia, buy the HP slate 8 pro, or even such it up and purchase an ipad mini - but I'm done with 16x10 forever.

Best $99 I've spent in a while.
[Android General] Brodrost:
According to this thread you can:

Havent gotten my thumb out of my ass and tried it yet.

Left mine unplugged when going to work today (wifi off). Still at 100% when turning on the screen 10 hours later. Maybe the reporting is a little bit wonky? But battery is usually pretty good.
[Android General] aniym:
Acer is releasing a followup to the A1-810, called the A1-830:

7.9 inch 1024x768 IPS display (4:3)

Intel Atom processor with 1GB RAM\

Jelly Bean 4.2.1

7 hours battery

Aluminium backing

Estimated price $180

Honestly, the 1GB RAM kills it. Having used 1GB tabs on Tegra 2 and Tegra 3 tablets, and comparing it to tabs with 2GB RAM, the extra 1GB makes a huge difference in reducing lag.
[Android General] episode96:
Personally I could live with that. What I cannot live with is the low res display.
[Android General] aniym:
Many Chinese OEMs like Ramos, Onda, etc. have been putting in 2048x1536 displays in their tablets, but the battery life suffers enormously, and the cheap SoCs they use cause lag when navigating around the hi-res display. One solution is to add a bigger battery, but that increases the cost and weight. These tabs are generally 100-200 grams heavier than comparable tabs from Samsung and Apple already.

[Android General] m7ia:
If you mean 10", then yes, that does seem to be the case. However, there do seem to be some no-name Chinese 10" tabs with 2048x1536 as mentioned in the thread, but it seems they have problems with battery life or lag, etc.
[Android General] lfcd:
Did you actually mean ‘smaller than 9.7”’, or have I missed them?
[Android General] sokito13:
Xiaom Mipad looks really good in 7.9" platform, except it doesnt have 3g built in. Hp 8 pro looks good too. It only has 1g ram, but maybe it's ok. I ended up ordering Cube Talk 9x. The only thing bothering me is it's got mtk soc, but will see if it makes me happy.
[Android General] lfcd:
That is it, thanks!

Thank you very much, that is what I was looking for!

What would the MTK SoC bother you?

I gather eight processor cores will be partially wasted most of the time on a tablet, but then they may be handy now & then.
[Android General] Aqua1ung:
Looks good indeed, though 1G of RAM isn't very exciting.

Geekbuying is a serious outfit: I bought stuff from them many times. They also sell on Amazon as well. And yes, they use PayPal as well.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------

Now why would you need 3G on a tablet? Why don't you just tether it to your phone? Do you go anywhere w/o your phone?
[Android General] sokito13:
That is a good point. Didn't think about it. But won't it drain the phone battery?
[Android General] G0bble:
Look for 3g dongle support in the tab. No point wasting battery on two devices to use one device screen.
[Android General] sokito13:
It seems Mediatek doesn't respect GPL; they don't release their kernel source. This means no support by xda community. There are people who have released modified roms, but only stock kernel.

I think 8 core will be bottle necked by small memory bandwidth, especially with the high resolution retina display.

I ordered it because I needed 9.7" or larger, hoping that it will be probably fine for my use (pdf reading and annotating).

If a smaller was fine I would probably have ordered mipad, acer iconia or hp 8 pro.

I just came across this tablet (from about a year ago) and found that it was not mentioned in this thread: Ceros Revolution, 9.7" tablet at 2048x1536.

http://e-ceros.com/revolution-tablet-16gb/
[Android General] GnatGoSplat:
I actually did buy an Onda V975i. Had it about a month now. It has a beautiful screen (2048x1536 IPS retina display), is small and lightweight, and the matte aluminum back feels good to hold. It was just Jelly Bean 4.2.2, but it feels very quick and responsive. Scores over 30,000 in Antutu. I ended up flashing mine to Windows 8.1 Pro because I can. Windows works great on it too, also fast and responsive. I had an Asus T100 Win8.1 tablet and I sold it because I like the Onda w/Windows much better than it. I'm missing Android and somewhat considering to flash it back, but also considering to put some effort into finding a way to dual boot Windows and Android.

So far no hardware problems. Hopefully it stays that way.

I wonder if, when the rumoured Nexus 9 comes with a 4:3, 8.9" screen, it will prompt more android tablet manufactorers to produce something similar.

I'm still looking for a replacement for my ipad 2.

[Android General] Aqua1ung:
Who told you that Nexus 9 will be 4:3? Where did you see that?
[Android General] real_per:
It's a rumour:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/2ifimn/this_is_the_htc_nexus_9/
[Android General] m7ia:
Well the Nexus 9 did turn out to be 4:3, so that is definitely good, though for me even the iPad (3rd gen) 9.7" screen is a bit small for my purposes (mainly PDF reading) so I'm waiting for a 9.7" or larger 4:3 Android tab that seems reliable.

Also, just to add a few more names to look into here:

Teclast X98 Air II (9.7" 2048x1526 KitKat - can also run Windows 8.1) with Intel Bay Trail CPU - definitely interesting. They also have the Air 3G which was the earlier generation of it.

Onda V975i

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chobits:
I notice that on the Windows Phone 7.5 browser IE9, you can only download a specific types of files.

Whenever the file is not common, it will says "Can't download file. Windows Phone doesn't suppor this file type"

Will this happen on the WP8 IE10?

And on the Windows Summit, it's stated that support SDcard + drag n drop

Anyone knows how this will work exactly?

Is it gonna be like Android which i doubt

Or is it gonna be like iOS?

Thanks
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevieBallz:
During the summit they said that it would support SD cards and File Management. They never said anything about Drag and Drop as such. While you could take the SD card out of the phone and put it in a Card Reader allowing arbitrary operations in Windows Explorer that is the only thing we currently know for sure. Given that many devices won't feature an SD card slot it remains to be seen how those will be handled.

According to information from the leaked SDK Apps will be able to register themselves as supporting certain file types. Aside from that not much is known on how IE will handle file downloads either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EVOMIKE025:
Why is it that our phones are under rated. I mean seriously? I see so many reports that the GS3 is the best Android phone of fall 2012, I would disagree. Although it is a great phone, I would not think that it is the best, if anything I would say EVO LTE and GS3 would be tied at that spot. Would anyone disagree? This is really irritating me!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Its not underrated, its more like under the radar. Lets face it the EVO is a small name in the industry when you have a device across all carriers which is selling at record numbers. The EVO is viewed more as the little engine that could.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EVOMIKE025:
So I wonder why they didnt just keep the EVO name across the board rather than come out with the One Series? IMO, I think that the sales for the EVO name aren't gonna stick in the future when they are bringing out same products with different names. Samsung and Apple both market for pretty much one specific phone and run with it, aside from the new Galaxy Notes
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] smallba:
Don't forget the promo for the Galaxy SIII is out of control, almost every other commercial is for Samsung that's another big part of that. It has become the house good name for android.

Does anyone care whether or not our phone gets the publicity? As far as I'm concerned we have the best kept secret in smartphones.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
The constant bashing for the LTE issue is not helping it either. Sprint still has not said officially that they are working on a fix with HTC. This phone had LTE issue in the lab before it launched but Sprint needed the phone to launch otherwise they would risk losing many accounts coming off their 2 year with no new flagship phone to go to. So it was rushed out the gate, and HTC/Sprint have tried to fix the modem twice with an OTA, but have failed both times. My hope that a 3rd round will correct the issue is getting weaker by the day.

I think I'll be taking advantage of the GS3 upgrade on Black Friday and rotating the "EVO Can't do-LTE" to of my other lines that really doesn't care about 4g. Love the EVO's battery life, screen, performance etc, but the LTE issue just hits hard. Kinda like buying a sports car with a nice V8, it looks good, but the manufacturer just hasn't figured out how to get the computer to make all 8 cylinders fire correctly so it's running on 4 cylinders for now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] typhoonikan:
The difference between HTC and Samsung, I believe, is their market approach.

Samsung has it right. They sell one major phone on multiple carriers, advertise it in ways that appeal to their largest audience (probably 15-35). And they have a few other lower end phones too.

HTC doesn't understand this, I suppose. The One series was halfway there. But then the EVO is too exclusive. Then, to dig HTC deeper into their hole, instead of focusing on marketing and updates for the One series line up, they for some reason think they would come out ahead by spending time and money in development for these new One X+ things.

WTF?

Though I am an HTC fanboy, mostly a Sense Fanboy, I don't deny HTC's bad strategies as a company. If I didn't think TouchWiz looked like something from the Dollar General, I might get a GS3. But what it comes down to when a user chooses a phone today, is what User Interface does that person prefer? Sense? TouchWiz? iOS? BlackberryOS? That is the determining factor, I believe.
