Another useless irrelevant post? For R400, there's tons of uses, GPS for the car, extra screen for casting etc.

A naked fact about Windows. And Windows 10 has upped minimum configuration requirements, it doesn't simply fit.
BTW, this model has no GPS, but 3G. A nice toy for kids, but sold out.

Decent tab for the price. Paid 1200 for mine a year ago or two :cry:

Gooi Windows 10 if you do buy it. Much better at touch screen than Win8

Hi,
Can you give us more details about this tab?, Does it have GPS?, Does it have a usb port as I see one can buy a keyboard, or is this Bluetooth only?
Plus whats the battery like?
Wish I could do research on the tab somewhere.

Hi,
It seems like Windows 10 will work, Windows 10 requirements are as follows :
CPU : 1 gigahertz (GHz)
RAM:1 gigabyte (GB) for 32-bit or 2 GB for 64-bit
Hard disk space: 16 GB for 32-bit OS 20 GB for 64-bit OS
Display: 800x600

Tabs Specs
CPU ??
Ram : 1GB Ram
Hard drive : 16GB, + SD slot
Disnpay : 1024 x 600

I'm just not sure what CPU the tab has, but besides that everything should work. Just hope we receive this before next week Friday, otherwise the Windows 10 upgrade expires :(

And i don't think anyone paying R400 for a tab is expecting a lot. One could have simply bought this to save R500 on a Office licence and get a free tab in the process. Doesn't matter how you look at it, this was really a good deal.

Edit, CPU : Quad core 1.83GHz with integrated Intel HD graphics (Intel® Atom™ Processor Z3735G), not to shabby for R400

It was before the third official pre-beta release (July 2016).

I don't lie to you when saying "Depreciation of Windows". Now it will require 2GB RAM for 32-bit system. It is why you get it so cheap. http://mybroadband.co.za/news/software/166042-windows-10-ram-requirements-increased.html

The Windows 10 Anniversary update is only coming out in August after the "Free upgrade" expires. So it will only require 2GB ram in August for new installations.
Which still gives us time to still upgrade ours. (Hopefully)

You will be stuck with buggy 11/2015 version which do not even work with built in 3G modem. This is why I am saying "Depreciation of Windows".

Do this modem use RAS interface? I mean modem is installed on virtual COM ports? If it is RAS interface, then it is not going to work properly on Windows 10. Drivers are installed, but connection is unstable and Windows is constantly losing access to drivers. This is Windows 10 feature, so please post Device Manager expanded tree.
