iBall Slide 3G 9728

Hi All,nthis is my first tab purchase (from another online store) but third android device. My main motive to buy this was browsing and e-book reading and hence the review is directed towards it.noverall, this tablet has all the features of a 3g calling device. the processor as given by device info app is mt6577. but for some unknown reason the display shows as 7 inches.nBuild: plasticky that feels good in hand but the sd card and sim card cover feels flimsy. i had ordered white but i guess for iball white means grey!, has a pre-installed screen cover and mine had 2 air bubbles.nScreen: the colors are muted and not vibrant. the fonts in pdf are not ebook friendly. not yet tried with dedicarted ebook reader. it feels like it may need contrast changesnsoftware: 4.1.2 version, has auto brightness but does not satisfy me in terms of auto set, touch response is quite good, has few apps installed which i disabled like for e.g facebook. anyway first run free ram is around 575MB. the softkeys and notification panel takes up one cm strip of screen space. HD files plays without issues. mplayer is preinstallednsensors: has compass, gps, and other standard sensors.ncamera: not upto the mark. all pics come out as reddish indoors.n2g and 3g: browsing speeds are quite ok, tethering works fine, Bluetooth file transfer was tested.nspeaker: volume is quite loud and has dual speak holes, headset is average and call clarity is quite good. reception is good toonFM: does not work without the headset connected as advertisednoverall a worthy buy for 13900/-

Got this tab from Flipkart on 27 Oct 2013 lightning fast delivery as usual. My first 24 hours with this tab are just sheer bliss...yes the tech savvy folk may find this lacking in some manner but i dont...in any way.nPros :- Great battery life ( The initial charge is still going on after reasonable usage)nXGA Display...very decent and clear. nCamera is good in daylight but average in night situations.nExcellent internal memory and expandable external memory.nSlim sleek design.nA carrying case , required connecting cables and a lovely cleaning cloth included in the boxnPacked with pre loaded appsnComes with an already installed screen protector guard.nAbsolutely no noticeable lag to my knowledgenCompatible with G PlayStore so go get more appsnStereo Speakers and decent volume compared to many other tabsnCalling facility with GSM sim slot and 3G support by sim nThe list of pros is almost endless. All in all a very good buy considering the price you pay.This is my 3 rd tab after two other brands which came as defective pieces.and i must admit i was hesitant about i Ball until i was left with no option but to select this tab and TO ANYONE WHO IS THINKING OF PURCHASING A TABLET i Ball Slide 3G 9728 is the way to go.I would highly recommend it. Kudos i Ball...very well constructed and well built Tab. nCons :- Cant think of any with regards to the piece i received. ye sit does get a bit warm with long hours of usage but in my opinion that s excusable.Did nt burn my hands!!!nn Addendum:- Almost a month and a half later...I have to say this is what i had been looking for ...never hangs and i never yet had the need to reset it. i Ball rocks and so does Flipkart..
