The concepts of woman and technology have long become inseparable. How often do we see a lady in a cafe, in the subway, at a trolleybus stop, who is enthusiastically working on her gadget. The choice of the latter is simply huge - phones, smartphones, communicators, PDAs, e-readers, tablets, netbooks, etc. Our article today will be devoted to the Chinese analogue of the Apple iPad, which had the imprudence to fall into our hands.
Apple Ipad is a good, beautiful, but very expensive thing. And since every second person dreams of it, the Chinese, without thinking twice and not particularly worrying about patents, decided to release Chinese analogues of the Apple Ipad. Their charm is that in terms of functional content they are not inferior to iPads, but they are several times (5-6 times) cheaper than those. By the way, the correct Chinese copy of Apple Ipad is called China Apad. Testing will be carried out on the basis of the MID FS-805T tablet (Chinese article S-WMC-0168).
Here are the main declared characteristics of the Chinese copy.
MID FS-805T is based on Freescale A8 ARM processor, d 1GMHZ, DDR 512MB memory and 4GB NAND FLASH hard drive. To increase disk space, you can buy a TF card (aka micro SD) up to 16 GB, according to other sources up to 32 GB. The tested machine has an 8 GB card. FS-805T has on board WiFi: 802.11b / g., G-sensor, supports external 3g modem via adapter, external USB keyboard via adapter, external USB mouse.
Equipped with an 8″ touchpad TFT-screen with a resolution of 800x600. The tablet is preinstalled with Android OS version 2.2, software for reading books, playing music, movies, and a browser. Lithium battery 2800-4000 mAh. The dimensions of the device are 215x162x10 mm and the weight is 387 g. It supports many languages, but more on that later.

Overview of Chinese tablets
Now let's see a photo of what was eventually sent to us, designating the package as a Chinese copy of the Apple Ipad. Delivery took 3 weeks, the parcel was brought home. Packed securely, soundly, not wrinkled. All parts and wires are in place.
For those who have never held an Android device in their hands, i.e. It took us some time to learn how to manage it. First of all, we changed the screensaver to a more girly one and started to drive the battery, testing the installed programs and installing new ones. The battery during the trip kept 7-8 hours in normal operation, i.e. read something, check email (the rest of the time Wi-Fi is off), listen to music or watch a movie.
In the free Android market of programs for every taste, if you don’t mind paying, you will also get access to paid applications.
The impressions are the most positive: “for such a price such stuffing” - he goes to the Internet, reads books, puts games, puts cards, music and films (not everyone, unfortunately, has not yet figured out what the difference is) loses. This is an ordinary Android, in principle, you can put any program under this OS.
The only negative so far is that it has not been possible to raise an external 3g modem, it refuses to save APN. The external keyboard did not work with the installed input program, they installed it from the Market - it worked.
Here is also a short video review. We are waiting for your comments and questions.

About Chinese tablets, the reviews I heard are not bad.
Quite a budget option, it comes completely Russified, with a plug for our outlet, etc. The Chinese have realized that the poor Russians and Ukrainians are their niche, and they are doing business on this.
We also bought a Chinese gps navigator: an excellent menu, reads docks, texts, shows videos, photos and plays music. The screen is 4.3 inches. True, the cards are not enough, but you can deliver them simply by copying them to a folder. And only 65 dollars.

I bought it for a child, I use it for a month, I’m happy. There are practically no glitches, if you just run a bunch of applications. The only thing is that I can’t turn off the search for networks to save battery. , turned off everything that is possible and the same thing. Please tell me if anyone has come across this. Thank you.

I also have a MID FS-805T
Alexander, as far as I could understand - it is impossible to turn off the search for networks.
Android is written for a mobile phone and sharpened for it.
Even when I turn off the device, it asks "turn off the phone?" It will always show 60-70% of the charge goes to searching for a network, but as practice shows, the charge is not really spent on this, and in tablets this means the charge to maintain a working system

we bought MID FS-805T, we are happy, like elephants,
we are thinking of buying a second one, it is painfully inconvenient to share for two with my husband.
The Android was first seen in the eye, so it took a long time to figure it out, but now everything is fast. Which is very convenient - I went to the Market, installed the desired program in 2-3 clicks.

cool! I also watch tablets from Sanskaya, I think now I’ll definitely order it after reading the comments! Thank you! that's just a question, they write that the keyboard software letters are Latin, can it somehow be changed to our native Cyrillic? If so, tell me where they took it, until I understand what a market is. 🙂

Alina, in the settings of the tablet itself, you can add a Russian keyboard, and it will work.
Settings - languages \u200b\u200b- Russian. There will be problems - I'll take a screenshot.

My husband gave me a tablet for reading e-books and games from ainol. Maybe non-names are good, but I advise you to take official companies, as there are firmware and updates.

And I have ainol novo 7 ... they took it right in Moscow, paid after receiving the tablet. Perhaps vplanshete has something interesting.

Text review is good.
No video review.
It is not clear what was shown there and to whom. How long does the battery last?

The battery holds 7-9 hours in book reading mode.

Made myself a gift for the new year.
Decent toy! To be honest, now I don’t understand why people buy iPads and overpay a lot of money. There is even a comparison test on YouTube where you can see.
that this tablet is in no way inferior to the iPad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47oJd48kf7A

bought MID VIA 8250, two months of happiness - relative. I couldn’t connect the modem (although they say it’s real), and when I accessed the Internet via wi-fi on the android market website, I couldn’t download a single program, it says: the device is not defined. I would like to know if other Chinese owners have similar problems, and whether they can be solved. Maybe there is a bug in my firmware?

Hello!
For a long time I have been looking at Chinese tablets, but I just can’t risk ordering.
If it's not difficult to write who ordered where, on which site.
Thank you all!

Hello. I have a question, maybe this happened to you too. My Flytouch 6 tablet does not respond to touch at all. I can’t do a calibration - that target runs all the time. What can be wrong? Thank you

Problems can be
a) with the firmware, you need to reflash
b) hardware - the touch screen needs to be changed or just the cable has disappeared.
touch screen costs about 20 dollars
