Intel Z3735F Quad Core 1.8GHz 2GB RAM 32GB ROM Retina Screen WiFi Dual Camera
probably the best (only?) large tablet available (11.6"!) for the price. Just bought this as it was over £100 on every other site i looked at. Android 4.4 at the moment but due an update to 5 very soon.
Really like the look of the multitasking OS, but roms are available if you prefer a more traditional interface or want to install lollipop. Seems to run everything that is thrown at it, even ran two games at once in a review, and has a full HD screen to boot :)
Main Features:
GPU: HD Graphics Gen7
RAM + ROM: 2GB + 32GB
Other functions: Vibration feedback/Light sensor/G-sensor/OTG etc.
CPU: Intel Z3735F 64-bit 1.8GHz quad core processor has a better performance, 60% power consumption reduction and almost half package areas than the 32-bit processor, delivering plenty of power for multitasking and fueling casual games and movies.
Gravity sensing system: Can fluently and sensitively run various applications.
Bluetooth 4.0: Supports fast transmission of data, pictures and files.
3D Graphics accelerator: Supports 3D effect games.
11.6 inch screen: 1920 x 1080 full-view retina screen offers good experiences for watching videos and browsing the Web.
Remix OS system: An Android-based operating system with more excellent interface, compatibility and running effect.
Multiple windows display: Revolutionary experience on Android system and has a multiple windows display function.
Fold mode + PC mode + Tablet mode: Can be collocated with quality full-size keyboard. （Note: The keyboard in the picture is not included)
HDMI output: You could use a HDMI cable to connect your tablet to output the tablet display onto TV screens, monitors or projectors, creating your personal home theater.
8400mAh battery: Relying on Intel OS power manage system, Cube i7 remix can multimanage the current, power and the temperature and increase the performance dynamically.
Please check before complaining! It says 3-5 days for dispatch not delivery! it takes my orders about 7 - 10 days to arrive from the eu warehouse. Had a few orders from gear best and they have all arrived ok so far.
The only issue I had was that it isn't clear they use yodel as the courier. mind you once I found that out I was able to track all my packages on the yodel site without a problem.
Managed to tweak the remix so it runs nova launcher. Now I get multitasking, a task bar and widgets, best of both worlds :smiley:
Now received my i7. It was the Oneworld, Pump Lane address it was sent from. Took nearly 2 weeks to arrive, poor given it was showing as in stock at the EU warehouse when i ordered and should have taken 3-5 days to arrive.
As for the device itself, pretty impressed so far it has to be said. This is the second Cube tablet i have had, the previous one is still going strong after 2 years, hopefully this one will be the same. Not bad for £65.

I ordered 10 days ago from the EU warehouse. It say 'In transit'... It must be on the back of a donkey!
It was clearly not available in the EU warehouse as they claimed, so it is coming from China, so much for the 3-5 days delivery!!

I'm hoping it will be upgraded, the original info for it said remix 1.5.

For those you you that grabbed one of these, you know it's running Remix OS - a skin on top of Android that allows you to have multiple apps on the Android desktop at the same time? It's very nice, but much improved in the lollipop-based version 2 which is only available on the Remix Mini - see here. It seems unlikely that the Cube i7 will be upgraded to 2.0, unfortunately. That said, Remix is very nice to use, even at version 1.

If you've ever had the experience many people have had with cheaply built non-branded tablets, you'd know why. I'm not convinced that many of them are tested to EU standards neither

Do the dual boot ones come with Windows 10 pre loaded?
faxmax to Gooner77
29 Nov 15#26
Some yes some not. Always check and assume 8.1 won't be upgradeable to 10. Unfortunately upgrade support or ability (Android as well as Windows) on these is generally very poor.

If anyone could help, would this or the cube i6 air be better? Just need something I can watch on rather then using for emails etc

i6 is better browsing and reading, this for watching

Also got a phone for my mum from them a little while back from the eu warehouse, took about a week (ordered it on Sat and posted mid week so potentially quicker it ordered on a weekday?)

What's the speaker like on this one?
lanky78 to keenan316
29 Nov 15#22
There is a demo of the speakers in the youtube review linked the the first comments, bth on the left which is weird but sounds loud enough, plus you have two usbs so it can be powered while using USB peripherals (including USB speakers :smiley:)

sorry predictive text on my phone playing up! Google making a USB boot drive for windows 10. Just need an empty standard USB stick (4 to 8gb minimum?) and the media creation tool from Microsoft's website.
Follow the onscreen directions in the tool to make a USB boot of windows 10, pop it in the tablet and it should be pretty standard from there. did it for 2 PCs, 3 laptops and a tablet so it definitely works!

going from experience with my recent minipc adventures, it might be best to try and recover the old install licence key first.

quite like the idea of a larger screen size, my eyes ain't what they used to be and i'm struggling with my 8inch one, would have like to have seen windows on this to class it as a serious bargain.

i just bought a cube tablet from these jokers, and the windows app store wouldn't load. so i decided to reset the tablet so i could reinstall windows...big mistake. i thought the os would install easy like an iPad/android but no turns out i need a usb boot drive, or whatever that is to reinstall windows 10 and now the tablet is dead as a doornail. Gear best don't respond. Ive filed a paypal claim. Anyone think they'll honour it??
Can put windows 10 on it without me making a boot drive?
i now that none of you probably care but i wanted to say this anyway in case someone knows the answer lol
maddogb to sleepingwonder
29 Nov 15#18
would have been a good idea to see what you needed for the reset before you did it :smile:
if you have access to another win10 pc you should be able to access the required info and files online, obviously there are so many variations it will be difficult to advise without personally knowing the exact model but if you get seriously stuck give me a shout on pm.

Had cube tablet for over year, really well made, very much a iPad inspired design, definitely one of the better Chinese brands.

Apparently if you remix an i7 you get an atom instead, hardly seems worth it.

I`m glad UK consumers are seeing the light regarding online Chinese retailers. Some of these product prices are just too good to believe! Tesco, Amazon , Argos & the like have serious competition coming. Welcome to global trading! :smiley:

Looks great for £82 (that's what PayPal thinks $120 is worth)! Thanks!
better spec than the Asus zenpad for £99 at Curry's which had a sub 150ppi 720p screen and only 16gb rom and also had an Intel chip with 2gb. both will run lollipop only this one has a prerooted multitasking OS... the tab e had a better screen but 1.5gb ram. this is £20 cheaper, bigger and can compete with both
tried the zenpad in store and was under whelmed tbh.

should also mention this is from the eu Waterhouse and not China!
The official keyboard case is worth checking out as a number of reviews said it was amongst the best they had every tried, even compared to big brands like surface and Samsung.

It is £10 more expensive than before, but is still a pretty good price.
