Reason for editing: Added rubricator firmware

MaksonPro @ 11/29/2015, 09:53

will the game support only for tegra k1 (/ x1) out of the box?

MaksonPro @ 11/29/2015, 09:53

And how about Shadowplay?

That is unlikely. The device is the first thing Google’s, Nvidia pushing its services on this tablet makes absolutely no sense

[Maksonpro]

Fatal1ty18RUS,ShadowPlay is really unlikely. But the games originally made under Shield I think will be supported. At least, what's the point in such a powerful processor (besides sharpened for games) in without these same games. At the moment, k1 is enough for non-exclusives. Well, support for OpenGL.

I think Google decided not to just put X1 instead of some Snapdragon 810, and considering the purpose of this device and rumors about the "merging" of Android and ChromeOS - it is logical to assume that to implement such an idea you will need more computing power

[timelord-sergey]

Fatal1ty18RUS,
This is a rumor.

[Fatal1ty18RUS]

[email protected], 21:04

there will be no merger

Not literally. Google seems to have said, they say, this will be the 3rd party project, and Bucket and Chrome will continue to live their lives

[Maksonpro]

No more information about him? If not, at least roughly know when it will be? P.S. I just choose a tablet and while I consider Pixel as an option, but it is expensive and not all the information about it. The choice is mainly between him and the Nexus 9.

[Serge_VB]

MaksonPro @ 12/05/2015, 21:04

December 8 (at least in the Netherlands)

[Maksonpro]

Serge_VB,Is it normal that the price is 500/600 and 169 for the EURO keyboard? : ohmy: It is strange, considering that the price was immediately called, with the same one, only in dollars. This is how much it will cost in rubles ...: sorry:

[SHERDES]

MaksonPro,
This is normal. Many manufacturers for Europe and the United States put the same price, but change the currency symbol of $ 499 for the United States and € 499 for Europe. Also with chromecast $ 35 US and 35 € in Europe. We have a price in Europe and plus cheat.

Everyone likes the tablet, except for one thing - they scold the software. Very much scolded.

[5 [Strogino]]

What can be briefly summarized from these reviews

Minuses:
- They scold software in the aspect that it is not optimized / fitted for tablets. What does this situation continue from the announcement of the Motorola Xoom (2011) to the present day
- There are four microphones in the tablet, and voice command support is available only when the tablet is turned on.
- Again, changed the control buttons: Back and Home - in the lower left corner, Menu (Overview) - in the lower right.
- No split screen mode
- Arstechnica had problems with touchscreen in review
- In Engadget, the battery life in the review is the lowest compared to its competitors (8:15 vs. 9:11 Surface 3 and more than 10 hours for iPads)
- At The Verge in the review mentions the interface brakes (refer to non-optimized firmware that can not properly use the power of the NVidia chipset)

Pros:
+ High resolution screen
+ Metal case
+ Capacious battery
+ Keyboard performance

Specifications:
Main camera - 8 MP
Battery capacity: 9000 mAh

Google laid out factory images with Android 6.0.1 for Pixel C

https://dl.google.com/...j-factory-0abf3abe.tgz- build MXB48J

https://dl.google.com/...k-factory-8ff1217a.tgz- build MXB48K

The device code name is Ryu

[Maksonpro]

https://youtu.be/PyyWWVVkkQTest this device in AnTuTu. 92k strange result. The Nexus 9 with Tegra K1 is gaining over 100k ... Considering everything that has been said about Tegra x1, this is really very strange, even considering the resolution.

Created a poll in the header:What keeps you from buying this tablet?
If you have your own answers, please unsubscribe in the subject.

From myself, I note that I consider buying this tablet. I need a branded tablet from 10 "on Android. At the same time, Samsung does not want, Tablet Z4 is already outdated, Lenovo (Yoga Tab 3 Pro) is unreasonably expensive.
And after reading the reviews, I was confused by the lack of GPS and support for SD-cards.
The lack of a slot for SIM cards (and therefore the mobile Internet) is (for me) not such a big minus.
The price is quite normal (in comparison with competitors). Even it would seem that the high price for the keyboard is discouraged by the fact that there is a small battery there.
The fact that the software is not optimized for tablets is an old Google problem, so this minus (for me personally) can be neglected.

In the review of stuff.tvIt is written that you can play Half Life 2 and Portal via the Nvidia Tegrazone App

Lenovo (Yoga Tab 3 Pro) is unreasonably expensive.

Almost the same price Yoga Tab 3 Pro in the EU (550evro) plus there is a projector and there is a battery 10000mah

There is a desire to change the note 10 to something more modern with a better screen, but you want to buy the next droid less and less - the reason is simple - there is no normal software and there will be no Google software with a naked droid in more than 40 cr (64 GB version) - for 25 kr it is already possible to buy sams tab c2 T810, but there is still worse - the old percents and the 32-bit droid with the prospect of release of the 6th and this will probably be the finish - a normal screw tablet with fullhd and with a fresh core type m and RAM 4 GB with a screw of 64 GB brand (Dell, Asus, MS) is insane for these times money (60-100 cr.), there are Chinese types of onda for 25 cr, but there hemorrhoid is provided - you have to try to finish it up to a sane state - on the tablet market as everything became very sad IMHO

On the pixel in the drivers, opengl 4.5 is mentioned, but does the xs work, on the nexus 9 only 4.3 without the chance to shake Google

Almost the same price Yoga Tab 3 Pro in the EU (550evro) plus there is a projector and there is a battery 10000mah

So he also has disadvantages:
2 GB RAM
Android 5.1 (and not the fact that there will be something higher)
Intel processor (conditional minus in the support of various specific applications that most people may not need)
Judging by the theme of the Yoga Tablet 2 Pro (predecessor) - the pro-version with its price scored a total of 13 pages of posts in the topic Discussion (and this despite the fact that there is no separate topic firmware). Those. its popularity is very small. Although you have to make a discount here, the Pro model was with a 13.3 "screen, which scared many away.
