So guys I was told by my colleague about this aakash tablet which is around 1200rs. I googled about it a bit and found the general consensus that ubslate/aakash2 is much better than aakash. So I'm just looking for what kinda problems there are in the ubislate tablet.
My requirements from it are:
1. I don't have an android phone. Personally I believe that putting 15-20k in a mobile is a bit too much expensive as they loose their resale value like crazy. But at the same time I want an android phone. Ubislate solves this issue very well as it is cheap (3000rs) and has an android platform so I'd finally be able to have the android experience.
2. I like to read novels, but the new, good stuff isn't easily available and when it is, it's costly. So I do plan to do a fair bit of reading on this thing.
3. I'm a BIG movie buff. All my hard drive space is filled up by movies/tv series. I also plan to do a good bit of movie watching on it.
4. Since I'm buying this tablet for the android experience, I plan on running a good bit of games/applications on it. I hope multitasking isn't too bad on it.
These are the reasons that I'm interested in buying the tab.
Going by my needs do you recommend it to me?
Does it hangs up frequently? How's the battery backup while watching movies? How long can it run while reading ebooks?
How does it get charged? I mean is it like a laptop that when using hook it to a power outlet and it gets charged while being used or do we have to take the battery out and charge it like in case of digicams?
Will I be able to access maps on it like the way my friends do it on their android phones?
What about internet usage charges? Will I have to be in contact to a wifi terminal to access internet or can I put in a sim and use the net off that like the way I do in my nokia 5130?
Anything else that you might want me to know?
