For all the budget tablet / smartphone fans out there: BudgetAndroidForum.com

Interesting website, thanks for sharing.

People might prefer the name BudgetAndroidForum over CHINAndroidForum because I think we have a slightly negative stigma about Chinese products, despite the fact that every phone and tablet is made there.

I’ll do a review of the OnePlus One there. I hope it’s considered as a Chinese Android phone, haha.

Sweet, thanks very much Ryan! I’d love to see a review of your OnePlus One.

Also, I took your suggestion and bought BudgetAndroidForum.com, should start working soon.

I tried to create an account on CHINAndroidforum.com...

but was unable to do so. :_(

I don't know if it matters, but I was using Google Chrome.


EDIT: I figured it out. No spaces are allowed in a username. ;)

Hey, that’s amazing! Nice to see the redirect. :slight_smile:

Glad you made it!

:wink: It’s just a duplicate domain at this point. I’ll probably set up a redirect at some point tomorrow, not sure which will become the default domain yet.

Any chance we can have the site placed on the “Related Sites” list?

I’ll have to ask the administrator about that… :wink: :bigsmile: I’d be glad to do so, but I don’t want to be obnoxious about promoting my own site either.

If we're not happy about anything you do we'll mark it as spam anyway so all's good. Advertise away.

:wink:

Looks like you are using Discourse. I am using it on Discourse.Powercartel.com. I don’t have any compatibility problems, because no one has tried to sign up yet :slight_smile:

I just did. :slight_smile: Seems to work fine.

Yep, Discourse is a pretty nice piece of software isn’t it?

Just registered, thanks! I’m looking forward to watching the community grow.

Great, thanks a lot! I also hope it’ll turn into a nice community. It’ll take some time, but hopefully it’ll get there.

This is a great idea. There’s a lot of curiosity out there but very little real info.

Just got an Onda V989 tablet, will check out the site :slight_smile:

That’s my impression too. And of course at this point in time, information is fairly limited on the new site too. But as soon as my units arrive (should be another 30 days at the very least) I hope to become a lot more informed on the topic.

Ha, interesting! Which came first? Your purchase or my site?

Huh ? How is that even possible ? Do you have more details ?

Even from the topic title I thought it was again another chinese bot spamming links about very suspicious stores. :stuck_out_tongue:

I have a 9.7" tablet, but I just use it for Kindle, so I can have a bigger screen and bigger fonts. My wife's is coming this week. It's an Onda 989 Octa core with the retina screen. She too will probably only use it for Kindle, but if she gets hooked, look out.

I think, from playing with my tablet for a few months now, it's just like Chinese lights, some come out good and others come out bad. Mine locks up all the time and there's nowhere to get any fixes for it. No updates and it's not like a PC where you can just change the software version. Android is too locked down to do much modding. I still think they are more for toys than real laptops. Great for simple games and simple programs, but the processors are slow and they have very little memory. Plus they can't be easily upgraded... but they are fairly cheap. Well, some of them are. Without help from dealers, I couldn't ever have gotten one, for sure.
