User opinion
I'm using zuk z1 from last couple of days and I feel there is no problem of heating like you say. It's a perfect phone with the best options. In just loving it. The quality and built is really fantastic with features like finger print sensor..
Camera is good not great but still it's above average.. Low light vision is little ofa concern otherwise it's a good phone.
battery is amazing. By far the best I have seen. I am heavy user and end a day of 15-16 hrs with 15-20% left on my phone.
Heating, I experience from time to time, not that severe, and not something I didnt have on Sony.

The ZUK Z1 is supposed to be an "out of the box" device, at least outside of Lenovo's usual box. Lenovo will soon move its mobile division under the storied Motorola brand for better name recognition in the West, while backing the ZUK startup.
The Z1 doesn't live up to the outsider status, phones with 5.5" 1080p screens and a mid-range price are the most popular category these days. Its two advanced features - fingerprint reader and optical image stabilization - are rare, but can still be found in similar devices. The 8MP selfie camera is great, but not unique either.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4-Inch Tablet full review

6:40:00 AM

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4-Inch Tablet full review



fiest thing is the CASE
The Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is ten percent taller, four percent narrower, and maybe a smidge thinner than the Apple mini-iPad Retina. The two are almost exactly the same weight. The Tab Pro 8.4 has a pleasing simulated-leather back, which is very realistic in look and feel, including stitching. The mini-iPad retina has a metal back.

O/S, RAM & STORAGE
The Tab Pro 8.4 runs on Android 4.4.2 (Kit Kat) which is the latest released version of Android -- seems to be a very stable and a well executed O/S. I have yet to run into anything funny or alarming with it. One thing I like very much about Kit Kat is that the O/S manages your memory for you -- you no longer have to worry about where things go. And it has a massive memory/storage capability -- 2 GB RAM, plus 16 GB of fast internal storage, plus up to 64 GB external micoSDXC storage, for a whopping 80 GB of very fast combined on-board storage capability.

In comparison, the Apple min-iPad Retina does not have a user-accessible external storage, so once you purchase your mini-iPad, you can't add more storage later. Apple does offer sub-models with more internal storage, but at a greatly increased price, for example at 64GB, nearly $600. Compare that to an 80GB Tab Pro 8.4 at $400 ($350 for the 16 GB Tab Pro + $50 for the 64GB microSDXC card.).


CONNECTIVITY
-- WiFi & Bluetooth
The Tab Pro 8.4 has the latest versions of Bluetooth (version 4.0), and WiFi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac),.

-- Infra Red Blaster
Infra Red Blaster provides an all-device remote control.

-- HDMI
The tab Pro 8.4 does NOT have a dedicated HDMI port, though it does support a USB to HDMI adapter, which you can purchase at many outlets, including Amazon.com.

-- WiFi Direct
WiFi Direct allows you to connect wirelessly with multiple devices (that also have WiFi Direct capability) and share information and files. WiFi Direct may not be immediately useful to you, but it is a feature you would probably want in all your future devices.

-- USB to PC
Normally, when you connect a handheld device to a PC by USB cable, the device becomes just an external storage device to your PC (or Mac), and no other features of the device can be used while so connected. If you do this on the Tab Pro 8.4, you will see two new storage devices on your PC: "Card" and "Tablet." "Tablet" is the internal storage (16 GB) that comes with the device - don't mess with it. "Card" is the external microSD card that you can install, and add files to from your PC. If you go about changing folder and file names you didn't add, you can screw up your device. When you are connected to a PC by USB, the Tab Pro 8.4's battery will not be charged. So you should have the Tab Pro 8.4 fully charged before attaching it to a PC by USB cable.

-- Kies
Samsung Kies is software to install on your PC or Mac which enables you to connect safely using a USB cable to update firmware, synchronize files, and transfer data much faster that Bluetooth. You can also synch with your PC's Windows Media Player (but forget synching with Apple iTunes - Apple just won't cooperate with Samsung or Google in any way.)

You download Kies to your PC from Samsung's website. There may be more than one version -- You use the latest version For the Tab Pro 8.4. After you install Kies, it will ask you to download a Samsung Kies USB driver that will increase the speed of the connection.

When you use Samsung's Kies software to connect your PC by USB cable to the Tab Pro 8.4, you won't see the Internal and external storage drives. Kies will perform firmware upgrades, and while doing so, you can't use the device for anything else. However, if you are just transmitting folder and file, or synching, you can simultaneously use the Tab Pro 8.4 features and apps. Using Kies makes transfers safe, and it knows where to put your music, pictures, and videos. For those files and folders, Kies will give you a choice whether to store on the internal storage or external microSD card.



PROCESSOR
A Snapdragon 800 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Processor (with 2GB RAM), and on-board GPU powers the Tab Pro 8.4, which is the most advanced and fastest processor used in Android devices.

The mini-iPad, by contrast, uses a Apple A7 CPU, which is no slouch, but only 1 GB of RAM on board. In throughput test comparisons, the edge goes to the Tab Pro 8.4.

DISPLAY
The Tab Pro 8.4 has a 5% larger screen area than the min-iPad Retina.

The Tab Pro 8.4's also has a higher pixel density -- display resolution is WQXGA (2560 x 1600 pixels) at 359 pixels per inch. That is better than Apple's retina display (2048 x 1536 pixels) at 326 pixels per inch.

The aspect ratio of the Tab Pro 8.4's screen is 16:10, which is the same as my computer monitor - so everything I see on my PC screen can be shown in even higher resolution on the Tab Pro 8.4.

A 16:10 aspect ratio is nearly the same as the HDTV aspect ratio of 16:9. Contrast that to mini-iPad's aspect ratio of 4:3, which causes HDTV content to either be truncated on the sides, or the HDTV image to be very small on the screen.

Samsung's default screen settings are a little too dim for my tastes. The Tab Pro 8.4 really shines with blazing, vivid colors at slightly higher brightness levels. The downside to increasing the brightness level is that the screen (which is the primary culprit in battery usage) depletes the battery faster.

White is the color with the highest battery drain (white requires all color pixels to be on). So the use of white backgrounds should be eliminated or minimized. I created a wallpaper that is just a totally black rectangle (stored as a .jpg file). The black wallpaper allows images on the screen to stand out better, even at reduced brightness levels. I also set my Kindle app to "white type on black background" for the same effect. Finally, I created a lock-screen which has my logo on it on a black background.

Clearly, the Tab Pro 8.4 is positioned to compete aggressively (both feature and price wise) with the Apple Retina mini-iPad. Excellent, very sharp images on the display (depending on the resolution of the image itself). This is the type of display that you only want high-definition images on.

MULTI-TASKING / MULTI-VIEWING

All Android devices can multi-task, but you can normally only view one screen at a time for any running app. The Tab Pro 8.4 allows up to four multi-tasking apps to be displayed simultaneously, and you can pair any two so they always show up together. This is a great feature for comparing two documents side by side, organizing files into different folders, or displaying a graphic in a separate window while browsing a document. It is a big step that brings much of the power of the PC display to the Android Tablet.

BATTERY
Here the edge clearly goes to the mini-iPad Retina with a 6,470 mAh battery to the Tab Pro 8.4's 4,800 mAh battery. That translates to roughly 10+ hours for the mini-iPad Retina versus 8 hours for the Tab Pro 8.4. Of course, user time will vary greatly - depending on screen brightness, sound volume, and the number of apps open. If you need more time between charges, consider purchasing a mobile battery extender, and/or invest in a car charger.

BATTERY CHARGER (wall mount)
The supplied Samsung USB Battery charger is rated at 2 amps, which is designed to rapidly recharge the device. Don't use any battery charger with less than a 2-amp capacity (which would include most cell phone charges) - they won't charge rapidly, if at all.

The same goes for the included Samsung USB cable - it is designed to handle a 2-amp load on recharging. Other USB cables may not be able to handle a 2-amp current..

CAMERA
Two Cameras -- 8MP Rear + 2MP Front. That is better than the mini-iPad Retina's cameras (5MP rear + 1.2MP front.) Not the highest resolution for professional photographers, but very good for the price range, and excellent for the amateur. The higher camera resolution allows a wider utility for the digital zoom without undue pixalation. And the Tab Pro 8.4's rear camera has flash, which the mini-iPad Retina doesn't. Both have auto-focus. Neither have an optical zoom.

GPS
The Tab Pro 8.4 has a fully functional on-board GPS. And it is fully compatible with Google Maps and Google Earth. The Apple mini-iPad Retina does not have GPS.

SOUND
The Tab Pro 8.4 has stereo speakers on the bottom (same as the min-iPad Retina.) Surprisingly good sound comes out these tiny speakers - no deep bass, but good enough to listen to movies and music without earphones. Put on some HiFi earphones for the best sound, or plug into some quality big speakers with a woofer for that big bass component.

MUSIC PLAYER

At first glance, the included Samsung music player (simply labled "Music") appears to be just a plain, simple, featureless music player. But it is actually a very understated, but feature rich, player. I mention it here because it would be all too easy to prematurely dismiss it.

You access the features from the Music screen by tapping on the small "Options" icon (three vertical dots) in the upper right corner of the screen, and then tap "Settings," and then "Player." It would have been better (and much more noticeable and convenient) to have these in tabbed folders directly from the player screen, but it is what it is.

The options under "Settings > Player" are:

- - Sound Alive
This is a multi-feature that has "Basic" and "Advanced" tabs.

Under the "Basic" tab is a graphic square layout that allows you to choose a setting between "Instrument" and "Vocal" (Karaoke effect) in five levels on the horizontal; scale, and simultaneously a setting between "Treble" and Bass" in five levels on the vertical scale. Some of the setting possibilities are labeled, such as: Classic, Normal, Pop, Rock, and Jazz.

Under the "Advanced" tab is a seven-band equalizer, and three special effects choices for "3D," "Bass," and "Clarity."

Available under either "Basic" or "Advanced" is a "Tube Amp Effect" that puts a little reverb in the sound. The "Tube Amp Effect" is only available with the earphones plugged in.

-- Adapt Sound
It is either on or off. I'm not sure what it does, but it only works with the earphones plugged in.

- - Play Speed
You can slow the music down, or speed it up -- by quite a bit - using a bar scale.

- - Music Auto Off.
Turns the Music player off after a time interval you choose.

- - Lyrics
Provides song lyrics. It is an on/off switch, and I presume you have to be subscribed to Google Music, or some lyrics service, to use it.

- - Smart Volume
It is an on/off switch that adjusts the sound level of all music tracks to level 13.


- - SAMSUNG
The included Samsung apps for the Tab Pro 8.4 are in a folder named "Samsung" while the Samsung App Store icon is now named "Galaxy Apps." That is a little confusing, so I thought I would mention it, because the "Samsung" folder icon looks just like an app icon rather than a folder. When you tap on the "Samsung" icon, a window opens up with the included apps displayed (Alarm, Calculator, Downloads, Help, KNOX, S Voice, Side Sync, World Clock.)

- - KNOX
Think of Knox as in Fort Knox - a place of high security. Knox is the secure (encrypted) part of your Tab Pro 8.4 - password protected. When you tap on the Knox icon, it prompts you to create a password and creates a secure folder for all your Knox-secured applications and files. It then opens a table of secure (KNOX) versions of applications, some of which are free, and some you might have to pay for.

In addition to the included apps, Samsung includes a $25 voucher for your choice of apps to purchase (from the Samsung App Store, not Google Play.) Some very powerful business apps in the Samsung store may be free, such as the Hancom Office set (HOffice, Hword, Hcell, Hshow, etc.) which will give you all the power to read, modify, and create Microsoft Office compatible documents.

INTERNET BROWSERS

Two internet browsers are included. Both are mobile versions, and both will look for a mobile version of the website you are visiting, but both will also provide full internet browsing.

- - Google Chrome Mobile, just labeled "Chrome," will synch itself with your Google account (if you are signed in.) And if you have tabs pinned on your PC version of Chrome, they will also be pinned in the mobile version. What you won't get with the mobile version are the apps and extensions that your PC version of Chrome can have. But word is out that Google is working on adding the apps and extensions to the mobile version, with a target release of late 2014. Chrome will allow you to zoom in and out on the web page.

- - Samsung mobile browser, just labeled "Internet," has a different tactic - you set the "small" print at the level most easily read by your eyes, and the content is sized accordingly. You can still zoom in and out on the web page. I had my doubts about this small print-setting tactic, but after using it, I rather like it.

CONCLUSION
It may be debatable exactly what the best hand-held thing on the market is now, but the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is right up there at the top - feature wise, and price-point.

RECOMMENDATION

I, as a rational engineer, would pick the clearly superior Samsung Tab Pro 8.4 over the Apple Mini-iPad Retina. I bought one for myself. And my wife said she was going to upgrade to the Tab Pro 8.4 and abandon her Apple mini-iPad.

Contixo Q102 10.1" Quad Core Google Android Tablet review

Contixo Q102 10.1" Quad Core Google Android  Tablet review



I chose Contixo Q102 tablet because I wanted a a cheap tablet with a 10" screen, and at least the resolution of my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, which was straining my eyes, and it is much easier on my eyes than the Samsung when reading news or checking Facebook. I wanted at least 1GB of RAM, and a minimum of 8 GB storage, and I got double the storage I wanted. I also needed Bluetooth, because I anticipated that this tablet's speakers wouldn't bring out the audiophile in me, and I would rather use my high quality portable Bluetooth stereo speakers. After I received it, I ran the updates, verified all features worked as described. I loaded up 20GB worth of cartoons, added some games and other apps. Real Racing plays very well, although it is a bit slow to load. Also, after you first get this tablet, you have to let it operate and run its updates, and until it finishes doing that, it is going to be slow. Overall I got an excellent value for the money I paid compared to what I really want, which is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10, which is not in my budget.

I got a case* from the seller Fintie under the search listing of "Fintie Premium PU Leather Case Cover for 10.1'' Android Tablet." The case I chose has no keyboard. It fits perfectly with openings in all of the right places ;-) and functions as a stand. It's vegetarian leather too. *(sold seperately)

I am going to cover pros and cons, and I may mention competing products. For me, competing products are sub ~$100 tablets imported from China, with no recognizable name brands, and with much lower quality builds than a Samsung Galaxy tablet.

Pros:
Mine works
1024*600 screen resolution compared to most competing tablets having 800*480 resolution
1GB RAM compared to most competing have 512MB RAM
16GB storage compared to others only having 4GB or 8GB storage.
Does not have mechanical button on the front of it which means whichever way you orient it, your home button will be in the right place
Android Kit Kat compared to most others being on Jelly Bean or even Ice Cream Sandwich
Bluetooth on this and most others don't
Cameras are not the high end but are better than most competitors
Battery life is adequate for my needs at this price point
Great tablet for a kid who hasn't proven reliable enough taking care of expensive belongings
Great tablet for a person on a slim budget who can forego the TouchWiz interface of Samsung tablets

Cons:
Product not labeled for FCC compliance in the US
No brand name, model number, or serial number on it
No warnings for battery safety and recycling
Not labeled for where it was made
Screen is very cheap plastic and I am very afraid I will scratch it easily
Case is very cheap plastic
Charging connector is not a micro USB connector, so you can't use those interchangeable ones you've come to love
Micro USB host and micro USB jack both feel super cheap - be careful you don't break them by plugging them in upside down
Exterior build quality is comparable to lowest price electronics sold at Kmart or Big Lots
