POLL:WHAT'S THE BEST ANDROID TABLET FOR THE MONEY??????? A BIT MORE ABOUT THE ACCIDENT......: I forget to make mention of one VERY IMPORTANT thing: ALL THREE of the times that I dropped my DROID were when the DROID was actually IN MY JACKET'S SIDE POCKET AND NOT IN MY HANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds somewhat paradoxical huh? well....what has been happening is due to the fact that — up to this point — tablets/i-pads are made from shiny plastic.......So,if for one reason or another you move your jacket and the angle of it's pocket is reversed/inverted,either by physically holding your jacket under your arm or — as I was— answering the call of nature(!!!) the tablet in your jacket pocket — INVARIABLY! — comes FLYING OUT AND SMASHES ONTO SOLID CONCRETE GROUND!!!!! MUCH TO IT'S OWNER'S CHAGRIN!!!!!!!!! *****SOLUTION? First-off, I advise buying a seven-inch model — IDEAL SIZE FOLKS!!!.SECONDLY,I advise buying trekking-trousers with large,neat side pockets to hold your tablet IN!!! I PROMISE,IT WONT FALL OUT!!!!! THIRDLY,if you MUST place your tablet in one of your jacket pockets use the INSIDE pocket and sew a piece of VELCRO at the top of it so that you will be able to safely LOCK your tablet IN the pocket and thus,avoid DESTROYING what,in your case,may be an expensive piece of gadgetry.....***** |

Have the Nexus 7, vut picked up a cheap generic tablet as a gift for 60 USD during the holidays. 1.2 GHz Rockchip processor and ICS (4.0.4) Root it and got JB 4.1.1 running on it. You will find even cheaper ones with dual core for 35 bucks on aliexpress.com Sweet deal, if you ask me ![]() |

An interesting answer from a friend, to an old thread that I posted about having dropped my Droid!!! Thanks for the info, dude! Yeah, it's nice to be "tech savvy", and to be able to carry out "improvements" to cheap, yet "well-endowed" gadgets—tablets being a very nice example these days, aswell. I am AMAZED at the prices you're giving me too, dude! You make it sound like ANYONE can go from "zero-to-hero" on just a paltry budget...hmmmmn...well, what can I say?...If it's THAT easy to modify/improve a cheapo tablet, then why spend TONS more dosh, when you can do it yourself...? CAUTION!: I'm not doing his to annoy the guy who posted today, but, you REALLY REALLY REALLY need to take into consideraion the quality of the battery that operates the tablet you intend on "improving"...MANY cheaply-manufactured tablets are fitted with ASTOUNDINGLY-AWFUL batteries, so-much-so that you're better-off avoiding them COMPLETELY—regardless of how little the tablet sells at! I know...I bought such a tablet back in early 2011!... Yeah, I became somewhat of an internet sensation using it (remember my "Lieutenant Colonel S.C." thread about the "GIANTS/UFOs INVASION"? It got 43,000 HITS, man!!!), but, after just a few weeks using the Droid, I noticed that its battery lifetime went from a *decent* 2½ hours, to a pathetic ½ an hour! Suffice-to-say: I just got too frustrated wih the *chap* to bother myself with it any longer...! ANOTHER drawback that the cheapo tablets have, is the fact that many of them use EXTREMELY inferior materials for their screen. You'll find that screen quality will become SERIOUSLY affected by wear-and-tear in a VERY short space of time! Yeah, you CAN circumvent this annoyance, simply by buying a thin sheet of "screensaver" plastic to protect the tablet's screen, but check out how the screen is attached to the tablet, though: SOME models are PRONE to the complaint that I have termed as: "screen peel". This means that the tablet's screen LITERALLY peels OFF—all by itself! YEP! Another VERY annoying defect!!! I still say that the old adage applies: Spend a bit more, and save a LOT more!!! You decide... |
