@DukesBigFan i dont think that the eken m001 i s an good device. the screen is so freakin' bad. you cant scroll at all, its slow and it have low batery life. Samsung galaxy tab is an android device. and i think that is litle bit bether then the ipad.
@jdstyl3s Yes, indeed, but you will get many free apps and trash. No idea why. Somehow it gets blocked fro some sort of Apps; if i go to a website and choose a download from the market, it says it is not available.
Otherwise you must take care about the Specs, there seem to be several M001 out there with different Processor and DRAM configuraions. I have one with 128 MB RAM and 533 MHz CPU and it is slow as hell; Flash only at the lowest quality, bad response, slow WIFI.
@supremeAFA Actually he is correct. There is a tonne you can do more on the iPad. Why would you even consider getting a tablet this small? Might as well just get a phone. It has EXACTLY the same interface as an android phone. It's not a tablet. it's an oversized phone without the phone part and 3G
Be aware of that company, they are cheating their customers, I've paid for devices last year and so far no money and devices, be careful!!!! Typical Chinese fraud. That is EKEN's idea of making money!!!!
@29bubloo So far you can get 2.0 from the Eken website and all you need to upgrade is and SD card. There also are a few custom firmwares on slatedroid.c om.
And it has an accelerometer so I'm pretty shure it can do motion gaming but keep in mind that the cpu isn't very powerful to do games.
@armagedo0 How would you update the firmware, I have the firmware on a sd card and i'm stuck there, i'm all new to android and tablets so all the help I can get is great.
I got one of these from amazon, anyone have any idea how i can get youtube on it, ive tried downloding from the app store but when i load it up it just crashes the whole android system.
showing the ports, mp3 features and the pictures doesnt really review the device... what about the serious things... contacts... emails browsers maps umtc ???
the eken m001 is a crappy model i had it and i dont recommend it to anyone ! But i was lucky and my girlfriend found this "EPAD discount Android Tablet" at ebay and gave it to me as a present for my birthday
im think im going to buy it but no flash support is a mayor issue. What about m.youtube.com and other mobile sides? My 2 year old cell phone suppords youtube mobile and stuff like that? What about this Eken device? Most sides also have mobile counterparts.
WARNING!! Guys dont buy this thing! It's battery last maximum 60minutes!
It is slow! Can't really play video! it plays video files very ugly! It can't play youtube videos at all! i had this trash and i was really ungry!!!
I sold it on ebay and bought the techpad , it is really high performance tablet and has quality ! It even can take usb flash memory sticks , has tv and its battery lasts 5 hours at least!
@chris4videos you're right its battery is its worst problem besides it can't play video nicely, also i couldnt make it play youtube. IT can play yuko videos but no youtube i dont know why! epad discount android tablet was better, thats my opinion maybe i am wrong ....
This product obviously fills a niche...it doesn't excel at normal computing functions.
I find it very useful docked (to any iPad station) playing music....or to get news from by the bed where it acts as an alarm clock. Additionally you can load PDF work-documents (or eBooks) that you need to read and easily walk about the house. I rarely focus on them longer than 3 hours and I doubt most do.
This is a unique device that won't be useful unless you understand what it's targeted for.
Yes, it will not play youtube videos or any other flash videos. Only Android 2.2 will play flash videos (but I've read that most of the applications are targeted toward 1.x and there are fewer apps that are compatible with Android 2.x because most of the devices out there have 1.x).
Hey, I see it too. - EKEN M001 Mini APad Notebook 7 Inch WiFi Gravity Sensor White
there is this one?!? -EKEN M001 Mini Notebook 7 Inch WiFi Gravity Sensor White
Dude what is the difference? I am thinking about buying the $70 but I want whats shown in the video.. It has the same model # but is worded differently! I Don't want to be ripped off!
Ok so this is pretty impressive, a good substitute to the ipad. But does it have the same functions, it only has 2gb internal memory that isnt much! Also if I wanted an eBook on it, how do i get the book on to it?
Be warned ive read a lot of reviews and was cosidering getting one. But it turns out it is nnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooooo iPad it is described by some as garbage others say it kind of ok for a kid with no computer it is cool but it has no real good use ,and ive heard it is made vvvvveeeeerrrryyyyy cheaply I would recomend the android archos 7 its twice as mhuch but it is made well and not to pricy. the batery life is 2 hours on this eken thing and 7 hours for archos. I would do a lot of research first
@Magazinonow If you visit SlateDroid you can find some third party apps there and also an app that will allow you to play YouTube videos on your M001.
@LoonyJuggalo cant make it play youtube videos and ofcourse i slatedroid isn online.
I have downloaded from torrent the slatedroid rom for the m001 it works fine and really fast the browser has really good performance i never expected something better. But if it could play youtube videos it could be very cool.
I tested the tudou and youku videos and are working fine so why the youtube dont work??
Hello. Can you test that it works YouTube direct web browser? I do not mean that the YouTube application works, but I mean that it works the same way as the browser on your computer. Does the Flash Player, if so, what version supports? Obeys touch with Flash? Can you make a video web browser, the browser that you use YouTube? How long does the battery last?
I just receive on of these in the mail last night and i'm already returning it due to it 1 hour battery life after 4-6 hours of charging. I dont recommend buying this at all. The price was $129.00 , just spend a little more and get the Archos 7 for $199.00 from Amazon.
I love how they fast forward through the painfully slow load times on these things.. it's a 300Mhz processor overclocked to 600Mhz.. Should last about a month of intense use.. it'll either cook itself or you'll throw it up against the wall and smash it.. (like those little winCE notebooks that float around at the same price..) Cute, but fairly useless compared to an ipod touch refurb at the apple store $149. Thanks for posting the video though extremely informative.
Hey do you know how to re calibrate the screen or hard reset this device.. Got it and I can press anything or go into the settings cause I can't click anything since it's not calibrated and if u can just hard reset to factory without going into the settings.. Please let me know! Thanks
Where can I buy an authentic Eken M001 just like the one in the video. Many folks are complaining of getting fake ones from different sites. Shanzaidotcom, please post information if you have on best site to get authentic Eken M001 Tablet PC.
Did I miss it? I don't think he mentioned how long this lasts on battery. If it lasts more than 5 hours maybe 7 like the Archos 7, I'd be very interested.
@fire1202 I visit Dealextreme website and one poster reported a clock speed of 175mhz for the system. There was no Eken logo on the product also. I was just about to purchase one from that site and so glad I read the posts on the website.
i got one of these but it came with a different app market and i cant download anything from the android market. can any one give me any advice on what to do or how to be able to download form the android market
really nice but I see no point in using it as a picture frame since it has 3h battery life... and the touch capabilities are sluggish... maybe when the price drops I will consider getting this
Is the processor speed really 600mhz? I'm hearing rumors that it's 350 mhz.. Also, could I open a 50-200mb pdf file in this thing? I'd like to read my ebooks, but, don't want to buy this if it's going to crash when i load it cause it's too big for the memory..
@PhobosRC1 I actually saw it @99 US dollars inculding shipping... and was hoping it will drop from there :P , I just dont think it is worth it if it doesnt have a regular usb port... I am not too keen on having to carry a usb aatdaptor all the time
@shotta2545 I dont think ebay is the cheapest way to get it as an example: dealextreme, there you can find it for $99 global shipping included... so yeah I don't think I would want to fuck for that since the price will drop as these things will flood the market...(look a the eken - only a proprietary connection) android 1.6 (therefore no flash), crappy mic (no mic jack) and a so-so processor (you can barely run any video on this)... basically this is for tweeting or wardriving... (but no gpslol)
@gizm11 I must admit you are right, but for $100 bucks you can't go wrong and what about the irobot (m9s)? it has 1.2ghz (2 chips) up to 32 gb memory and android 1.5 which i think you can upgrade! I think these things are aimed good market the only gripe I have with these ipad like things is the screens are not as clear/sharp as the ipad.
@shotta2545 I am not sure that it has a 1.2 ghz processor since the sources that i checked state that it has 600/500mhz (so its either a 500mhz overclocked or they are not sure what they have inside :P), the upgrade to 32 gb sounds cool until you look at the price for 32 gb flash/sd/tf cards, I am not sure about the upgrade of android but I think you are right about that, afaik the only non ipad device with 1.2ghz is the Archos 9 (with win7 preinstalled)... cheers
@gizm11 Its a duel core processor and some say its a 1.1Ghz by taking 600mhz from one processor and 500mhz from the other = 1.1Ghz. Of course its not actually 1.1Ghz because it doesn't work like that
@gizm11 Ya i found out it uses the crap VIA processor that doesn't even have duel core at all so like you said its barely 600mhz for the cheap $100 ones. The next step up is the rockchip 2808 it does have duel core 600 + 550 but its still a fail and slow at working the andriod OS. So you can go with the $150 ish rockchip 2808 and have slow one or have the even slower $100 VIA one. Keep away from both and wait for better processor to come down in price.
but then I said the same about iPad. I can't see below 12" screen anywayz.
so unless iPad is US$99 from apple and Eken is US$19, i don't see any good
reason to waste $ on these pads by Apple, by Berry, by any fruits. If any of you manufactures out there produce any screen above 12". Hire me as your market rep, i'll make you and me some real great money in US in the mid of recession.
@AcceleraTube my point was that there will be a price drop eventually and/or better devices will come out (regular usb ports, bt, gps, etc.) ... its only a matter of time and it is the way the world turns -> old tech replaced by new tech and old tech getting cheaper...
I'm pretty impressed. A lot closer to portable desktop than iPad. If I could update to 2.2 with this...I'm sold. Battery life is an issue but just think. This is perfect for Netflix. God knows when Apple will let iPhone/iPod touch users have that app. Android is freedom
Outstanding price point, but the unit is just toooo slow. Processor is abysmal. My Touch is worlds faster, and the battery life kind of kills this deal as well. What's promising is this is the perfect slate to improve upon. First and early adopters always have kinks to be worked out. It can only get better. My second biggest gripe is the shiny screen. Looks cheap. Try matte finish.
interesting, but i'm going to wait for the next gen of android tablets. A bit too much lag here, i'll going to wait for one with a 1ghz + processor and Android 2.1 before i'll be investing. Shame they've out such a large logo on the front and why are the red LEDs always on and so bright. Makes the device quality look very poor!
bought one....but not eken....looks exactly like it though....merimobiles com has it for $120 u.s. dollar....not bad....cant wait to try mine when i get it....
@siditesolar im going to buy one for $99.98 Buy it now (shipping included) so keep searching ive seen plenty, theyre not all eken branded but even with eken, youj ust get what you pay for.
From what I've seen and read there is alot of skepticism on this device. However, from what I've seen in your video it looks really quite solid as an affordable tablet device. Would you recommend it for someone on a budget? Pretty much to use as a web browser and e-book reader when away from home?
If buying a chinese tablet, get Teclast A10. That is a way better.

Did I miss it? I don't think he mentioned how long this lasts on battery. If it lasts more than 5 hours maybe 7 like the Archos 7, I'd be very interested.

You can purchase this from DealExtreme right now for just $99.

@fire1202 I visit Dealextreme website and one poster reported a clock speed of 175mhz for the system. There was no Eken logo on the product also. I was just about to purchase one from that site and so glad I read the posts on the website.

really nice but I see no point in using it as a picture frame since it has 3h battery life... and the touch capabilities are sluggish... maybe when the price drops I will consider getting this

@gizm11 While you are charging it over night you could use it as a digital alarm clock and picture frame on the table beside your bed!

@shanzaidotcom
Is the processor speed really 600mhz? I'm hearing rumors that it's 350 mhz.. Also, could I open a 50-200mb pdf file in this thing? I'd like to read my ebooks, but, don't want to buy this if it's going to crash when i load it cause it's too big for the memory..

@PhobosRC1 I actually saw it @99 US dollars inculding shipping... and was hoping it will drop from there :P , I just dont think it is worth it if it doesnt have a regular usb port... I am not too keen on having to carry a usb aatdaptor all the time

@gizm11 ''PRICE DROPS'' this is going for $100 - $150 ebay any cheaper than that and your gonna have to fuck to get one!
shotta2545 1 year ago
@shotta2545 I dont think ebay is the cheapest way to get it as an example: dealextreme, there you can find it for $99 global shipping included... so yeah I don't think I would want to fuck for that since the price will drop as these things will flood the market...(look a the eken - only a proprietary connection) android 1.6 (therefore no flash), crappy mic (no mic jack) and a so-so processor (you can barely run any video on this)... basically this is for tweeting or wardriving... (but no gpslol)
gizm11 1 year ago
@gizm11 I must admit you are right, but for $100 bucks you can't go wrong and what about the irobot (m9s)? it has 1.2ghz (2 chips) up to 32 gb memory and android 1.5 which i think you can upgrade! I think these things are aimed good market the only gripe I have with these ipad like things is the screens are not as clear/sharp as the ipad.
shotta2545 1 year ago
@shotta2545 I am not sure that it has a 1.2 ghz processor since the sources that i checked state that it has 600/500mhz (so its either a 500mhz overclocked or they are not sure what they have inside :P), the upgrade to 32 gb sounds cool until you look at the price for 32 gb flash/sd/tf cards, I am not sure about the upgrade of android but I think you are right about that, afaik the only non ipad device with 1.2ghz is the Archos 9 (with win7 preinstalled)... cheers
gizm11 1 year ago
@gizm11 Its a duel core processor and some say its a 1.1Ghz by taking 600mhz from one processor and 500mhz from the other = 1.1Ghz. Of course its not actually 1.1Ghz because it doesn't work like that
drkilleruk 1 year ago
@drkilleruk its not dual core it barely hits the 600mhz mark and its 175 mhz when idling its a fail product and nowhere near 1ghz...
gizm11 1 year ago
@gizm11 Ya i found out it uses the crap VIA processor that doesn't even have duel core at all so like you said its barely 600mhz for the cheap $100 ones. The next step up is the rockchip 2808 it does have duel core 600 + 550 but its still a fail and slow at working the andriod OS. So you can go with the $150 ish rockchip 2808 and have slow one or have the even slower $100 VIA one. Keep away from both and wait for better processor to come down in price.

The price is quite low, it is a serious competition for the Sony E-reader at least. I guess it is under 100$ including postal taxes. (6070 £)

@gizm11
but then I said the same about iPad. I can't see below 12" screen anywayz.
so unless iPad is US$99 from apple and Eken is US$19, i don't see any good
reason to waste $ on these pads by Apple, by Berry, by any fruits. If any of you manufactures out there produce any screen above 12". Hire me as your market rep, i'll make you and me some real great money in US in the mid of recession.

@AcceleraTube my point was that there will be a price drop eventually and/or better devices will come out (regular usb ports, bt, gps, etc.) ... its only a matter of time and it is the way the world turns -> old tech replaced by new tech and old tech getting cheaper...

I'm pretty impressed. A lot closer to portable desktop than iPad. If I could update to 2.2 with this...I'm sold. Battery life is an issue but just think. This is perfect for Netflix. God knows when Apple will let iPhone/iPod touch users have that app. Android is freedom

jdills1196 1 year ago
Outstanding price point, but the unit is just toooo slow. Processor is abysmal. My Touch is worlds faster, and the battery life kind of kills this deal as well. What's promising is this is the perfect slate to improve upon. First and early adopters always have kinks to be worked out. It can only get better. My second biggest gripe is the shiny screen. Looks cheap. Try matte finish.

interesting, but i'm going to wait for the next gen of android tablets. A bit too much lag here, i'll going to wait for one with a 1ghz + processor and Android 2.1 before i'll be investing. Shame they've out such a large logo on the front and why are the red LEDs always on and so bright. Makes the device quality look very poor!

From what I've seen and read there is alot of skepticism on this device. However, from what I've seen in your video it looks really quite solid as an affordable tablet device. Would you recommend it for someone on a budget? Pretty much to use as a web browser and e-book reader when away from home?
