Augen Gentech 7-inch Android Tablet Hands-On

[GigofRAM]

Whatever this is a killer tablet. People don't really understand the technology inside and what it can do. People act like they want a tablet to run freaking crysis 2 or some shit

[poosana67]

Does the AUGEN GENTOUCH78 7" ANDROID V2.1 TABLET have a camera or webcam built into it by any chance because there is a app for skype?

[poosana67]

This was a great video !

[thewisper1]

this is bullshit!!!!! this tablet sucks ass i bought it and kept it for about 2 or 3 days and took it back to Kmart, it DOESNT even have certified android it has its own market with only some apps and a poor interface plus the touch screen is terrible, i bought it didnt have youtube, it didnt have the actual android market, and it didnt have the stock android notification bar or the signal bars it said no network found!

Talk to the company you have to do better research,and if your a writer this all you need on the move, some people also are on fixed income making$ 300.00-$500.00 a week , they may not have cable or computer access ,obviously your from an educated background but do not have problems wiuth income so you have a naive perspective, your n=magazine should have had someone else do this type of review and hopefully you bought that item ,if you received it free makes it worse

[juza369]

you pretty much said "my fat ass fingers cant use it cuz my nails are to long, but it has really neat apps and a sweet case" so my belief is that sense i know what a stylus is and dont have edward scisor hand style finger nails it would work great

[juza369]

thumbs up if you knew what the video was gonna be at 35 seconds

[defnyung]

It's $115 on woot.com. Why are people trippin about how the review was filmed and edited. WTFC!  She pointed out the pro's and cons.

Anyway, thanks for the review.

[angelschina]

do I have to pay for any service with this???? Other then just having my wireless home internet?

[bl4ck0ut5k4ter]

im pretty sure if u cutt ur effen nails itll work fine

[Blorguehad]

Of course you'll learn the buttons after 5 minutes of use...

[do20061]

ok well i just recieved mine today and i have gone through all the updates and to me its pretty damn good for a 145 bucks better than most i have seen and im in the army which is good to carry and go i would totally recommend it to ppl i know and my friends all have ordered there's as well so i'm sorry to burst your reviewing bubble but lady you are completely off

[positivoshow]

wrong way of doing a review.

[MrBenson3436]

It doesnt register your taps because YOU HAVE INCH LONG FINGERNAILS

[wireman1990]

Your review and video were poorly done. Too much background noise and too many jump cuts

[golfstud22ful]

there are TONS OF UPDATES TO MAKE IT BETER!

if you need to know what ones i'm talking about go to my channel and ask wat website to get them on.

[bombaysessions]

sorry girl but u got the ugliest hands i have ever seen crappy review FAIL

[wondell7]

You sexy, Holla at me

[OfficialSneakeoneuc]

Beware do not buy major POS times 10

[seethransom]

I must say I was impressed to see that she made proper use of the word "myriad" in her suicide note. -Heathers.

[livingenzyme]

laptopmag, here is what you sound like in this review.

"I knew I wouldn't like it, and here it is I just confirmed my own preconceived notion. See? It sux..."

You admit in video that you don't know anything about it. Simply have it in your hands doesn't mean you know anything about it. You win the least-helpful-review award?

I don't know your website, yet, but I have a feeling it sucks. Here, let me check. Yup, it sucks. Just what I thought. See? I can play this game, too.

[dodgerfreak0834]

This pad is not as bad as they make it out to be. It can be and ebook, maybe store music and you can surf the web with it. The nook and others alike are wiich I believe is at the same price are only ebook readers.

[BuffaloWarrior7]

Don't worry the fix is coming soon!

In August. HAHA

Don't buy Electronics from a clothes store!

Android is designed for capacitive screens not resistive. Might as well give a deaf man a seeing eye dog.

[Zeethr]

150 in today's market isn't such a big waste of money. i think that you can afford to be either happy or disappointed by this kind of product at that price. i'd like to try it out, tho i think that since apple has set the bar for responsiveness on touch screens that nothing can come close to that.

[1ceECo1d]

i think id rather just get an ipod touch lol

[eereviews]

i cannt stand her fucking voice

[DJMOOMA]

For $150.00 what are you people expecting?

[iGFXDesigner]

lol, You do not have to press the letters a bit too hard... It's because your finger nails are bigger! Cut your nails! =/

[spikey911usa]

I understand all the cons...But look at the price..Its only $150...

The real question is are you getting $150 worth of technology..

[GavinSpenceR18]

id get this if it had a capacitive screen

[sean1256]

Android is the whore of the gadget community. That bitch will hop on any electronic. Android = Windows 2010 (SHIT PRODUCT)

[verafly6]

@sean1256 yeah if this was running MacOS it would be 800 bucks, apple is a fucking monopoly

[sean1256]

@verafly6 Do you know what a monopoly is? I suggest you look it up. Apple isn't the ONLY operating system available in the world. If it was, then YES, it would be called a monopoly. You get what you pay for with everything buddy. And if you think Apple would release a product as shitty as this, you're insane.

[verafly6]

@sean1256 HA! yes its the ONLY type of computer brand that runs MacOS, making it a monopoly. i can buy a HP or dell laptop for 400 bucks that runs just as fast, if not faster than a MBpro. sure people will badger me because its a laptop that doesnt have an apple on it, but thats whats jobs does, takes the knowingless population of no techsavy people and entices them into buying a WAY overpriced piece of plastic and screws. when u buy ANYTHING apple, you are paying for the name, not performance

[sean1256]

@verafly6 You just proved yourself wrong. You wanted a computer and you bought a Dell/HP. If Apple were a monopoly, you'd HAVE TO BUY APPLE because they would control the whole computer market. A monopoly is a company that controls a entire market, making it unfair to consumers in that there is no competition. I'm not going to get into the whole Mac vs. PC war. Specs on one are not the same on the other. My computer is Aluminum and yours is plastic. Mine is fast in 2 years yours is slow.

[verafly6]

@sean1256 THERE ARE NO OTHER COMPUTERS THAT RUN MACOSX!!!!!!!!!! THEREFORE ITS A MONOPOLY! U HAVE TO BUY AN APPLE COMPUTER TO RUN MACOSX!!!! i have had my comp for 4 years, bought it back in 06' with 6gbs ram and a 2.8ghz intel OC'd to 3.2ghz. Never had repairs done on it, all metal casing, bought for $522.86 so suck that twat

[sean1256]

@verafly6 Why the fuck do I argue with morons? I'll explain it one more fucking time. Apple is NOT the only place to buy computers in the whole god damn world. I am fully aware that OSX only runs on Macs, but making your OS native to your platform, does not make you a monopoly! A monopoly is a company that CONTROLS a market, because it is the only option! You need to go back to school, and quit like a fool. Google it you stupid son of a bitch.

[m3phisto666]

@verafly6 Dude, you really are very wrong...

[nick298310]

@m3phisto666

He is wrong about the Monopoly thing, but he is not wrong about how when you buy an Apple product, you pay for the name, not performance. Its true. Examples: I can build a lightning fast custom PC for LESS than the CHEAPEST MAC which is the Macbook at 999.

[N1NJO3]

@verafly6 Im actually typing this from my PC, which is running OSX 10.6.3... If u didnt know about something called HACKINTOSH, then have u been living in a cave?

[nick298310]

@sean1256

please be quiet you stupid elitist homosexual. 

[sean1256]

@nick298310 This thing is a piece of shit, and if you think otherwise, I feel sorry for you. Good luck getting people to take you seriously with that unoriginal diss of yours. Go get some fresh air, your brain needs it.

[nick298310]

@sean1256

Great comeback. Made me laugh. read my first comment again. I didn't mention anything about this Augen product. Not one word. I never dissed you, you were just whining like a little bitch about OSX so i asked you kindly to be quiet. i'm not dissing you, mostly because you're a waste of my time.

[N1NJO3]

@verafly6 Im actually typing this from my ASUS laptop runing OSX 10.6.3

[BuffaloWarrior7]

@N1NJO3 Screw that man Get Ubuntu 8.04 build for the eeepc 900 Its amazing.

(different versions for the other netbooks)

[SavuhgeNight313]

omg wtf is that no im not taling about the tablet

[Silfverr]

It's not a very good way to review something to in the beginning state that you already had pre-conceived notions about the product and that you wouldn't like it. Fail.

Also, it's a resistive screen...USE A STYLUS!

[zonemad96]

@Silfverr yea it should be used with the the stylus but you still shouldnt need to if it was a good enough touch screen even if it is resistive it would be more responsive

[iplaythisgame]

@zonemad96 I think the biggest problem is the animated wallpaper. Think of it like vista aero when it came out. Even though you could turn it on, you needed a pretty fast cpu to run it effectively.

Other videos show this device (without the condescending pre-notions) without it on and it responds very well.

[nrjize]

@Silfverr Your logic is flawed, the only way her review would've been bad is if she didn't point out its pros vs the cons and I think she did that pretty well. Also, who the @$%^ uses styluses anymore? One thing I will say about this device is that you're getting what you paid for, $150 worth of crummy technology when you could spend twice as much and get something that will be functional.

[RainMan002]

@nrjize His first sentence logic is aptly qualified with words like "not very good way". Any one who has a clue regarding logic knows this is fair as it makes no definitive claim. You use definite words like "only way" for a claim that is unjustified. You have shown a lack of understanding of logic. It seems that logic is above your head and you should stick with arguments of opinion and acknowledge them as arguments of opinion.

[nrjize]

@RainMan002 Who are you the internet police? He was obviously trolling as are most people that end their statements with the word "fail". As for my own logic I would think that any review would DEFINITIVELY include pros and cons. Pros being the good, Cons being the bad. In this case we have a device described by the author as having low quality specs in the context of currently available technology with the offset being cost. I see no problems with my statement in regards to her video.

[zonemad96]

@luthrus1987 btw its not 50 bucks its 150 oh and another con is the android os thats on it is made for a phone so it blows 50% of the battery life trying to get a cell signal so its not bad but its not great ... i cant give a personal experience beacuse they only had a store display none in stock to buy =[ but if you didnt get your rain check for the sale price then the price is like 180 bucks

[zonemad96]

@luthrus1987 theirs alot of cons thats why people mention them for example look at windows vista pros:android 2.1 market place it has a 720 mhz cpu but it only runs at a max of 600 which isnt to bad just for a internet tablet 256 mb of ram which also isnt that bad for web browsing and the main one the price is cheap cons: the touch screen capibilitys are shit you really need to use the stylus speed isnt great lots of bugs that need to be fixed 2.5 mm headphone jack shity battery life

[nmelkon1]

disable the laggest live wallpaper you can have on, galaxy... 2.1 suxs.. this device will be perfect on rooted with 2.2.

[kroneage]

Resistive screens better accuracy w/ incl stylist. Buttons? lol.. no prob for us who know how run em. It's obvious that laptopmag has iHitler controlled iNazis running it. Is CrApple padding your pockets? Isn't even the 1st sub $200 Android Slate. Others are better quality w/ better specs, not available here. CrApple doesn't make or design any of their own parts. Samsung makes over 50% of cost of parts in iFad & iPwn'd & they're not perfect w/em not making any parts themselves either!

[tandersn9]

@DirtyMidgetStudios lol don't worry, that's just sass...

[sslim29205]

Wait for root.

[imbadwrench]

Driven by advertized specs alone Id buy one in a millisecond.... Thanks for the warning, lets just hope the hackers can make something out of it.

[mmartinianoo]

good for entertainment  . . you culd buy three of this comparision to apple ipad 64 gb
