Design

designs like the spitting image of iPad mini. On the front we find 7.9 “display covered by Gorilla Glass glass, the same size as the aforementioned model even with the same resolution – 1024 x 768 pixels. Above the display is a 2 megapixel camera for video calling and a sensor for brightness control. Below the display not find anything as tablet runs on Android, so all the control buttons software. The sides of the tablet is a solid aluminum frame and back are made of plastic. As for the quality of processing, that is good, nothing did not creak and everything fits pretty well.

Display

display, as I mentioned, has a diagonal of 7.9 inches with a resolution of 1024 x 768 This is an IPS panel and the viewing angles are very good, colors are true, nor are they somehow dimmed as it is in the cheap chew. Visibility in the sun but not the best, but still it can be. Multitouch here still works, but only for five fingers and not always is flawless.

Performance

enough

of sufficient power to old quad-core processor Rockchip RK3188 clocked at a frequency of 1.8 GHz. The processor is based on cores Cortex A9, which is made 28nm technology. As the graphics chip is used older proven Mali 400 MP4, which was used for example in the Samsung Galaxy S2 and even today provides plenty of power for all new games. RAM offers impressive capacity of 2 gigabytes Internal memory is 16 GB and can be extended microSD memory cards up to 32 GB. The hardware ensures fast and error-free operation of the system, but at a more advanced use of the device on top of the heat.

Tablet unfortunately does not offer GPS, 3G and GSM network or Bluetooth, so the keyboard and headphones via Bluetooth, you can forget it. Wi-Fi and of course it was integrated 802.11 b / g / nas its signal reception was not a problem. There is also a motion sensor, gyroscope, and support for USB On-The-Go, enabling seamlessly connect to an external disk, flash memory, keyboard, or mouse. As a benchmark, so the test AnTuTu obtain tablets 17,457 points.


Battery

battery offers a capacity of 4000 mAh and the battery life is good, in normal use, the patches Wi-Fi tablet lasts about 5 hours with medium brightness, free Wi-Fi and lasts a maximum of seven hours. The battery is integrated in the body of the tablet and is not removable. Charging takes a relatively long time – almost four hours, but it can be expected due to the capacity.


Software

The tablet is pure Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean without any extensions, but has only a few applications in Chinese. Android here uses their tablet interface and I think the system as such, do not somehow more closer. The only modifications are given in settings where added two new items – HDMI and ScreenshotSetting. The first line sets the HDMI output to a maximum resolution of 1280 x 720 and the second set fourth button on the bottom toolbar to capture screen. As I mentioned earlier, and the response speed of the system is very good, the tablet is just nezadýchá and multitasking also works perfectly.

problem may be the Chinese keyboard, which is written badly, but fortunately that can be replaced by another from the store Play. Another problem that I encountered is when using the tablet forgets lock rotation, a few times I also itself suspended in the default music player or removing the headphones, the music stops, but played on a loudspeaker. These errors are fortunately only software and reportedly has come out Android 4.2 tablet that could correct these errors.

As I mentioned, there are a few Chinese preinstalled applications and games. Unfortunately, they are completely in Chinese and I can not Chinese, so they will not offer description. What I did not understand some by content, there is a kind of RSS reader and alternative application store. Incidentally, the manufacturer has prepared for us and a new widget with the weather.

Camera

camera in this device is an absolute disaster, although reportedly has a 5 megapixel with autofocus and all fuzzy and photos of him are awful. Mostly you have the problem of knowing what is in the photo at all. Only if you shoot macro picture is a little sharper, but the colors are washed out and unrealistic. Camera manufacturer did not change the environment and we find the default Android. The camcorder is doing just as bad, perhaps even worse than the camera. Recorded videos have a resolution of only 640 × 480, are out of focus and the sound of them is too much poverty. There is also a creation of panoramas. I think it would be better if the camera manufacturer forgiven completely, because this is useless, however, judge of the test photos and videos themselves.

Conclusion

Cube U30GT Mini 2 is the average Chinese tablet, which pleased with its performance and display, but disappointed with unnecessary software errors even lack a lot of features that can be competitive with other tablet manufacturers offer.
