Force is a Polish brand tablet Plug, belonging to the Krakow’s Systrade. It is not a big player on the Polish scene of such appliances, but slowly becoming more and more recognizable brand. The current output of the company is only a few models, but the Plug Impact 2 earned favor with many users of the presence of GPS and the 3G model (according to the UMTS 900 MHz – so working with the cards Aero 2). Force is another model that is likely to become popular.
dimensions, the screen
gabarytowo Plug Force is the size of the iPad, and has a very similar parameters. Screen size of 9.7 inches and a resolution of 2048×1536 makes a very impressive – but more on that later. One thing is certain – it is not as mobile as equipment 7 inch models. It is much bigger and heavier. But to fully compensate for the convenience of reading, writing, or consuming other multimedia content. 4:3 screen has its advantages and disadvantages. It is certainly a very convenient when you read the internet, and playing a variety of games. Slightly worse when playing movies – because almost all new productions are panoramic movies. For movies, played by MX Player does not have any problem at the bottom and at the top were black belts, but for example, TVP Player, the picture is somewhat unnatural scaled. But not nearly enough for it could not be pleasant to watch. Something for something, for me, what counts convenience of using the internet :)
IPS screen is a matrix, a pretty good color reproduction. Its maximum brightness is not equal is true that we offer genuine Apple products, but it is satisfactory and sufficient for working outdoors. The panel supports multitouch – up to 10 points. As for the sense of touch I have no objections – each dab your finger is very well detected by the screen.
Specification
Specification Plug Force is as follows:
SOC Allwinner A31 system is mainly valued for its energy efficiency. Processor performance, despite the fact that no fewer than four cores deviates somewhat from the RK3188 in benchmarks. In contrast, however, has dual channel memory controller – which allows him to catch some games with really complex grafiik?. 16 GB of flash memory is a little, but the tablet is equipped with a micro SDHC card reader – and the memory can be upgraded cheaply by another 32 GB if one is necessary. I personally do not need to install so many applications and games. 2 GB of RAM is a lot, really hard I tried to slow down tablet – adding dozens of widgets for 7 desktops – and I could not bend FORCE.
No GPS module in the device of this size is acceptable, because the tablet of this size is unlikely we will be using in the car.
Perhaps a bit more lacking 3G, but it is possible to connect to a 3G USB modem. Huawei E3131 card Aero 2 darted without any problems as soon as you connect to the device. OTG port also supports USB HUBs. So you can connect a mouse, keyboard, modem, 3G and still is a place for pendrive if we HUB czteroportowego. I worked on this tablet versus laptop a few times, and its performance is quite satisfactory. Working on Android, however, is somewhat different than under Windows. It takes some getting used to, patience, openness to new things. However, due to quad-core processor and plenty of RAM there are no major zacinek when viewing the internet with music in the background, and several instant messaging services such as Skype, ICQ and Facebook Messenger.
Officially
Force Plug is sold with Android 4.1 – but the company has already released a plug on his Facebook profile “beta” Android 4.2. From which, moreover, with undisguised joy I use, and do not fully understand why the manufacturer calls it a beta version. It works much more comfortable than the factory version 4.1 – and there’s virtually no software failures.
Initially
lot appek reported incompatibility with the device, but with the Roma based on the Android 4.2, this problem disappeared. It is expected in the very near future edition of “official” Android 4.2 tablet for this, but I do not think there are any radical change – because what already is definitely encouraging.
Build quality
The quality of the tablet
Plug Force is really very good. Matching items are perfect, there are no sharp edges or protruding or separating the panes.
unit is fully equipped with a front camera with a resolution of 2 Megapixels for conferencing on Skype. This works quite well, and the image is comparable to the typical laptop webcams.
plecki FORCE are made of aluminum – with a matte texture. It’s hard to scratch it, I find it still did not work.
The device installed one speaker, it is quite decent quality – but it could play a little louder. For movies with quieter sound track can have little difficulty hearing the dialogue. Especially those whispered.
All ports and buttons are deployed on one edge of the device. As for the buttons you will find here the switch and hardware back button. The buttons are easily perceptible click, and pressing the button never in doubt when the button has been pressed or not. It is worth noting that the headphone jack is integrated in such a way – that does not hinder the use of the tablet in “portrait”.
built-in camera
integrated in the tablet camera has a resolution of 5 Mpix. Of course, it should not be treated as a DSLR, but rather as an average smartphone camera. Sample pictures which I managed to do it (in one of them I added effects – the tablet is installed by default, allows to add many interesting effects). And in all that is good is adding effects – many supporters iPads appreciate the extras, and also not everyone knows that everyone tablecik Android can be equipped with this option.
quality audio output
listened to this tablet has a lot of music, including lossless formats for inexpensive but decent quality headphones Superlux HD-681. Although it does not like the headphones so as colleague David – but definitely confirm his conclusions on this model. The analog output is satisfactory – there are no glitches at pog?a?nianiu or ?ciszaniu. The bass is quite nicely underlined and virtually inaudible noise electronics.
performance in real applications
Due to the recently revealed scandal Antutu and not entirely reliable results phones Samsung decided that it will no benchmark results. They do not reflect by. usefulness me the tablet to a variety of applications, and are very susceptible to manipulation equipment manufacturers. I will show how the tablet performs in everyday use and a number of popular and interesting games for me.
prepared for the occasion, some videos as picture show perhaps best reflects the performance of the tablet. apologize in advance for the quality of the movies, but I do not have a camera – but only with a digital camera.
fluidity of the interface
Web browsing and enlarged photos
game Worms 2: Armageddon
game Angry Birds: Space
game Carmageddon
game Need for Speed: Most Wanted
VOD service Ipla
As you can see fluidity of the interface and the Internet is satisfactory. Slight lag when loading a page is not the fault of the tablet, only actions Neostrada (with regards to the Orange). Picture enlarged board is very detailed, and very well illustrated the advantages of the screen with such high resolution. I have no objections to the speed of the game, even Need for Speed: Most Wanted which requires a very sophisticated tablet PCs to run smoothly (I’m talking about the version for Android) works quite well. Titles such as Carmageddon and Worms 2: Armageddon for this tablet is a piece of cake.
Summary
tablet already using 1.5 months, and I think that is a sufficient period of time to get to know its advantages and disadvantages. Definitely nicer than I remember it when I installed Android 4.2 on it – and because it is already available on your Facebook profile Plug write their findings on the basis of the latest ROM. ROM that even though it is in beta, provides a much smoother and faster performance than the previous 4.1. I have never seen the non-working application on the tablet, which sometimes took place in the previous ROM. As you can see in the attached filmikach both tablet interface and internet browsing smoothly – and without annoying jams. Despite the high resolution screen layout it would do – it may not give you the aisles between the windows of 60 frames per second, but it certainly does not jump. Also games, even the more demanding work – though perhaps not as stunning as the iPad.
If we look at how much the iPad with Retina screen, or even the Nexus 10 quickly come to the conclusion that the tablet Plug Force is after all better value for options. Tablet recently you could buy on sale for 799 z? (took advantage of it), now costs 899 z?. This is more than a toy stores, and more than the average seven or even 10 meter rule – but in this case we have a huge screen resolution and aspect ratio of 4:3. It makes a significant difference especially when viewing photos, but also internet browsing much more comfortable than a typical device with a resolution of 1024 x 768 Much better look or letters, really hard to make out individual pixels.
Cons? From a certain type of defects wymieni?bym bit too quiet speaker, and the lack of a hardware volume control. You have to do it on the taskbar (next 3 Androidowych are two additional buttons). This is the first manufacturer is likely to be further improved in the final release of Android 4.2 for this model, and the latter probably already I have to just accept it. However, this will not change my good opinion about this tablet. Probably some of you called Plug Force ridiculous fake iPad, for me, however, is a solid device with a very good ratio price / quality. The parameters will not accidentally coincide with the parameters of the iPad – but is that so wrong? If you have already copied is good practice – and certainly the iPad is so much that I just priced unreasonably.
A few weeks ago there was an unofficial information allegedly intended to introduce Apple’s new iPhone models 10 September during a special conference. Has not denied these reports, or there were no conflicting information from these plans. It can therefore be assumed that the premiere will take place in two weeks. Recently in the media circulated the rumor about the release of the new iPad, which would appear later. Bloomberg’s report says, however, is different.
