Is it just me or does the screen respons seem a littlebit off in the video ??
I also notice a little lag when he swipes and when he played templerun

or is it my imagination??

unboxing out here at

 

[janesh]

I am not impressed.

I want to see the androbench for this tablet before I jump on it. I like my Cube Pea 2 but it's never 100 percent lag free because of the slow emmc storage. With better soc and 2gb of ram, the bottle neck for these tablet is storage speed. With a decent emmc storage, these babies will be iPad smooth.

OK. I just watched the video and saw the following:
-lag when trying to switch screens with UI
-weak WiFi signal
-very slow at loading web page + PlayStore (b/c of weak WiFi???)
-also required multiple touches to screen to work which is another issue

Maybe some lag with Temple Run too??? Saw a little pausing on that game and do not think that is normal.

Not your imagination. Specs look great on paper but this tablet appears to have a few visible problems - lag + weak WiFi.

I would avoid this tablet based off seeing that unboxing video.

Im glad im not the only one who saw this

.

And indeed on paper it looks verry promising .
But as many chinese tablets it just does not seem to work all that great .
Chinese Tablets are just in a league of their one .You cannot compare them to the ipads and Nexuses .

They all seem to be missing that littlebit of xtras sometimes its batterylife or lag or just sheer power.

To bad .

That was a very unimpressive unboxing video. Took 4 minutes until the tablet was turned on, which actually was good because the performance was pretty poor. I almost fell asleep waiting for the first webpage to load(which he had to touch several times to even start loading) . Still waiting for an rk3188 tablet to make me say, wow that looks good!

Still, I want find out for myself.

 

[max1001]

Got to be a firmware issue. I mean even actions tablet are faster than that.

yeah, not sure how much value these unboxing videos are. I will hold off judgement until I hear from some SD users, that's how you get the straight dope.

Hmm, well there does seem to be a little lag, however that might also be due to the user's ability to know how to swipe effectively. The section demonstrating the internet browsing capabilities is a bit shocking. It's almost so bad that I'm inclined to think that this was a router issue rather than the tablet hardware. Who tries to demo a tablet when you've got almost no wireless signal? Maybe they were using a really crowded Wifi channel? Also, the back of the iFive seems to be plastic, which in general bodes well for good Wifi signal as plastic vs. metal greatly reduces the chances of Wifi interference.

I agree with JohnnyBlades though, these Chinese vendors are pitiful when it comes to accurately reviewing their products. Waiting for a SD review is really the only way to go.

It could very well be firmware problem. It could also be some hardware issue(s). No way to know for sure which one. In addition, who knows when or if the firmware will get fixed to work well.

I wouldn't spend the money for a badly working tablet. It would be too frustrating to use.

Lots of Chinese tablets out there and only a few seem to work very well!!!

all this complaining about performance is due to the Firmware guys. iFive has released new Firmware for it http://www.ifive.com.cn/service/downloads/ifive X2/index.html

 

[AC Slater]

Ah! I will try that as soon as I get it in.

So you've tried this firmware with the tablet and it's better?

no i don't have the Tablet but it's very possible it's just Firmware

Well, buyers want to be sure they get a good tablet and not junk. Too many Chinese tablets with 1 problem or another to deal with.

It will be interesting to see a SD review with the new firmware. Hopefully it fixes the lagging UI though bad WiFi signal is going to be unfixable by just firmware upgrade because hardware related issue.

PS,
I think it was stupid of iFive to send out their tablet with bad firmware. That gave buyers a bad impression of this brand.

 

[vildkatt]

I bought one a couple days ago on aliexpress. I had asked they ship asap, but the vendor claimed that they were waiting on some new and better firmware. I don't know which one that is, but I expect the current firmware must be pretty bad if they don't want to ship out.

In any event, I like the hardware specs. Nice smaller package compared to the average 10' tablet. It seems it's powered via a normal USB as well and not the usual 2,5mm jack.

I also like the front facing dual speakers. I just hope the hardware, including the WIFI are decent. Crossing my fingers.

If it's not the best tablet, I will give it to the kids.

 

[AC Slater]

Exactly. The specs and thought that went into this tablet are really nice.

The only thing I'm anxious for now is how the tablet will actually be in practice.
So I went and ordered one at the official Tmall-store with a bunch of freebie goodies and I'll just undertake this experiment.
I'm not much of a white tablets fan anyways, so it's more just taking a look at what 8.9" 1920x1200 would be like and seeying how the FNF brand does things.
There's a lot of community at http://www.5fans.com.cn/forum.php , so I don't think they would just ignore any feedback.

If with the new firmware it still doesn't feel up to my standard and I can't get used to a white tablet, then I'll find something to whom such a tablet will be good enough.
I think that's the best mindset with this one.

Mine should arrive somewhere next week I'd say, so I will know soon enough.

Wait? You used a firmware for one tablet on another?

I think you're in the wrong topic, m8.

N90FHD is over here: http://www.slatedroid.com/forum/674-97rq-n90fhd/ .
