just received G4 via post from a Hong Kong retailer. Tested it and here's my review :
- i guessing $4 or more goes to the packaging? FULL details on the boxing itself. And first time i see a product got qr code and facebook support page ( or maybe that's just me haha). packaging is enough to confirm that this player is not your average china-made ones. Took the trouble to print those details and a presentable box.
- boot up is twice faster than a china android player (bought for fun, $70 only) i bought 2 months back
- wifi stronger too. WEP/WPA no problemo.
- used it to download some apps and games. smooth, no lag. tried playing some movies with my ext hdd. Movie size up to 1gb+ no problem. but failed when playing 20GB The avengers. downloaded different players that support mkv, can play, but super jerky. Maybe if play from SD card will be faster? not sure. dun have micro SD card. Appreciate if some1 can assist on this issue.
- more access to google store. Apparently i compared my 2 android players, g4 have more category pages and really could find my apps under SEARCH function.
- need another help here. dunno how to change from their interface to the standard android one. i prefer having my own background pic and theme. Their's is a very simple one. Good but not for me haha.
- 2 hours in, than i realise i forgot to close previous programs. click bottom left, and found out i was running with 20 apps !! 6 video apps on the 20gb avengers, 5 games, google store, not sure settings counts as one or not, browser, explorer, email, facebook, spiderman 3d wallpaper, forgot what else.
- lastly, heard that droidmate and airplaydmr can work with g4, haven try yet cuz i only got iphone, no android phones. cannot test.
Hope got more reviews coming in. Would like to exchange experience on G4, provided i got time haha.
