Samsung n8000 64gb tablets China. Chinese tablets – Samsung n8000

All sorts of people walk around train stations and offer expensive tablets for cheap.

The owner of this tablet was sold it just like that. There is internet, it says Samsung Samsung Galaxy note N8000, but in fact far from it samsung samsung.

Looking ahead, I’ll say that it’s better to take it for yourself normal And good working tablet on the Internet, rather than having to worry about restoring the functionality of this fake. For example, this one. It will work perfectly without any glitches.

So, to the question of fake - this is what it looks like from the outside, in the case, and it even has a keyboard :)

When you turn it on, they assure you that it is Samsung. But we don't believe it.

Even on back cover written by Samsung, but we are still tormented by doubts :)

Just because the original Galaxy note N8000 model looks different, Samsung camera front in the center at least, and about five more significant differences can be found. Here's another option for you with the Samsung Galaxy Note N7000.

And when we open it we see the now quite popular Allwinner A13 chip

The actual problem was that it couldn’t boot. The Samsung logo appears, then Android, with a spinning arrow, and at one point the arrow freezes and the loading stops, the tablet freezes.

Thanks to the 4pda.ru forum, the firmware for this device was found from Jelly_Bean in this forum thread, it was flashed without problems, it works in full functionality. If you have the same model as I have in the photos, you need the firmware MaPan_MX913_DC_Jelly_Bean_4.2_Os_Root_Firmware_J20131101.img

Everything works, both cameras, wi-fi, volume buttons, everything is as it should.

We saved on the battery. The battery capacity is not enough for long-term operation of the device, only 2300 mAh (8.55 W)

The keyboard, by the way, also works and is fully functional, only for Russian letters you will need to install a third-party application.

Due to the numerous number of people asking about what third party application there is a speech - I answer. Russian Keyboard.

So, download the “Russian keyboard” program from the market. Go to “settings”, then “language and input”. Click "Default" and select "Russian keyboard" in the window that opens. Below the “Default” window, we also put a checkmark in front of “Russian keyboard”, and on the right we see a small icon (like a mixer, regulator) Click on it. Go to "hardware keyboard". Click "select layout", select "External Keyboard RU". We go to “switching layouts” and there we select the appropriate mode for switching the language on the keyboard (space is a space bar). Everything is ready! Exit the settings menu and go to any search engine. Click on the small keyboard icon on the panel and select "Russian keyboard". We try to print - everything should work. If the keyboard still prints in Latin letters, restart the tablet.

The key combination works the same way as in Windows - Alt+tab :)

After flashing the firmware, we should see this picture in the settings.

Unexpectedly, I recently came across a powerful 64Gb Samsung tablet from the Galaxy Note N8000 series, or to be more precise, I came across a counterfeit of this model.

About a week ago the phone rang. A friend called me and told me that they were offering to buy him new tablet for only 250 dollars. At that time he was interested real cost Samsung tablet Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000 64Gb 3G, to which I answered him with data obtained from Yandex Market - the price of a new tablet varies from 7.9 to 9.5 million Belarusian rubles ($800 - $970).

Out of curiosity, I looked at the characteristics of this model.

Characteristics of the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 64Gb tablet

• 4 nuclear processor at 1400 MHz
• 2 Gigabytes RAM
• 64 GB of internal memory
• 10.1 inch screen
• High screen resolution - 1280 by 800 pixels
• 2 cameras
• Case with separate keyboard
• Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and other gadgets

According to my friend, this The tablet was purchased at the beginning of the month in Moscow, but now the owner needs money and so he sells it. A friend told me that this tablet even has warranty card and receipt from the store with the Euroet stamp, which in principle eliminates the possibility of counterfeiting.

Omitting details, he bought this tablet for $150, and he received such a discount after he said that he needed to connect it to the computer and check everything. Neither one nor the other had time, so they agreed on this.

A little later, a friend of mine brought this tablet to me for testing, but at that time I had work to do and I still had to go to training. In the end, I was able to start checking the tablet only late in the evening and that’s where all the fun began.

How to check the tablet?

I connected it via USB to my computer, the charging indicator lit up on the screen and then I was able to start the device for the first time.

Cool - everything works, I opened applications, clicked settings, connected the tablet to WiFi, used the Internet and even played some games installed by the previous owner. During such work, the tablet turned off several times by itself, and the battery charge level constantly jumped in an incomprehensible way - this alarmed me somewhat. Later, I attributed all the problems to a dead battery, turned off the tablet and left it to charge.

When my friend returned for the tablet, he asked me to send him a couple of movies and imagine my surprise when, instead of 64 gigabytes, my computer recognized only 2.

In the tablet settings it was displayed and internal memory and another 64 gigs, but for some reason not all of them worked.

I decided that N8000 tablet lacks drivers. In the device manager there was indeed an unrecognized device labeled “Android”.

I climbed on Samsung official website, chose required device, downloaded and installed the Samsung Kies 3 program with drivers on my computer and immediately encountered a new riddle. The thing is that the device was not recognized by the program at all, at the moment when my samsung smartphone The Galaxy S 2 was perfectly detectable.

I’m sitting at a dead end - I don’t understand what this tablet needs, what it lacks. In general, I fiddled with it for about 2-3 more hours before I began to think that it might actually turn out to be a banal fake.

I visited the legendary portal about mobile devices 4pda.ru, in search useful information, I tried to update operating system tablet, tried to reflash it and eventually even did ( full reset), but still didn't get any results.

The next day I called another friend who is also involved in computer equipment and tried to find out if he had encountered a similar problem. It turned out that it stacked and directed me in the right direction. He said it was fake.

How to distinguish a real tablet from a fake?

1. For the original tablet, the camera is in the center– on the fake it is moved to the corner.
2. A real Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 tablet screen resolution 1280x800– the resolution of a fake is much lower. In my case, it was 960 by 600 - in other words, shortcuts and application icons were simply huge.
3. Fake tablet models do not have GPS. Try turning it on, and everything will immediately fall into place.
4. Original smartphones and Samsung tablets in “naked” mode equipped with special applications like Samsung Apps, ChatON, Group Cast, etc. at a time when the functionality of fake versions is significantly reduced.
5. IMEI code Of course, this is not an indicator, however, in new and real devices it is always present, and in fakes it is usually written “unknown” instead.
6. Fake Samsung tablets are not recognized in the original Samsung program Kies.

A little from myself and photos

Okay, here my friend bought a tablet directly from his hands on the street, but it turns out that there have been cases when such models were easily sold to clients in fairly reputable stores like Svyaznoy. Where is the world heading?

And yes, by the way, after realizing and accepting the fact that the purchased Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 64Gb tablet turned out to be a fake, I again asked my friend to show me the warranty card and the receipt from the store.

In fact, this is what the tablet itself looked like.

Considering that today it was difficult for me to find at least some information about counterfeits of this nature on the Internet, I hope that few people fell for the scammers and did not get away with it.

In general, this is how things are. Good luck everyone and be careful.

If you were offered to buy a fake or, God forbid, you became a victim of these scammers and swindlers, tell your friends about it. Warn and protect your loved ones!

Law enforcement agencies are not interested in solving such problems, and judging by how actively the discussion is going on, it has already gained enormous momentum.

Let everyone know about this chaos - this is quite logical and correct.

Note N8000. Despite the fact that this model has been on the market for more than 2 years, it continues to sell successfully. It is its parameters and characteristics that will be discussed in this review.

CPU

The heart of this tablet PC is the Exynos CPU model 4412. This is Samsung's own design. It includes four revision A9 cores operating at a frequency of 1.3 GHz. It is the combination of these characteristics that allows the Note N8000 to cope with any task without any problems. Again, all the features implemented in the AWS architecture function successfully in this silicon crystal. This includes disabling unused cores and lowering clock frequency unused module. All this allows you to significantly save battery life. Overall, an excellent combination of performance and energy efficiency, which is the hallmark of all devices built on this architecture.

Graphics subsystem

To perform graphic functions, the Mali-400 MP4 adapter is integrated into this device. Of course, at the time the tablet was released, it made it possible to solve all problems without exception. But now its computing power is no longer enough for demanding applications. The screen resolution is 1280 pixels by 800 pixels. Moreover, its diagonal is 10.1 inches. This is enough for normal and comfortable work, but a certain graininess of the picture will be present. Another disadvantage is the glossy finish of the screen. All finger touches will be imprinted on it.

A definite plus is the presence of a capacitive sensor, which is highly sensitive. Another advantage is support for up to five touches simultaneously. But now cheaper devices can boast of this feature. Despite the presence of certain comments, the graphics system of the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 is well balanced, and its capabilities will be sufficient for the needs of most users.

Memory

The memory subsystem of the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 is simply excellent. Reviews from satisfied owners of this gadget are further confirmation of this. It has 2 GB of RAM. Now, 2 years later, not every tablet or smartphone is equipped with that much RAM. The built-in memory is 16 GB - this volume is enough to store several films or a library of books. In addition, there is a slot for installing a MicroSD card up to 32 GB in size. You can also use an OTJ cable to connect an external regular flash drive with a capacity of up to 16 GB. In general, the memory system subsystem in this case scores five points out of five possible. It can also be quickly increased without problems by connecting an additional memory card or flash drive.

Frame

TO strengths The case cannot be attributed to the Samsung Galaxy Note N8000. Reviews only confirm this. There are two options for its design - white (for a female audience) and black (more official). Case material - plastic. It scratches easily, and it is not resistant to impacts. Therefore, it is better to immediately buy a case in the kit that will protect this tablet from damage. The situation is similar with the screen. It is made of ordinary plastic and is also not resistant to cracks. So you need to immediately put on a protective film to prevent it from being scratched or damaged. These measures will significantly extend the operating time of this device.

Battery

The Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 has a mediocre battery. The Chinese version in this case is even worse. The proprietary device uses a 7000 milliampere/hour lithium-ion battery. This capacity is enough for one day of comfortable work. Although, with a not very intense load, its charge can last for two days. But still not enough today. Now there are already batteries with a capacity of 10,000 milliampere/hour, and this is enough for 3 days of active use. But the Chinese copy has even less - 3000 milliamps/hour, which is enough for half a day of work. So before purchasing, you must definitely check the modification of the device. In addition, the rest of the technical specifications in the Chinese version are significantly worse than those of the original.

Software

Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 runs on the Android operating system with outdated version 4.0.4. This is quite enough to run most offers. But still, some programs (for example, the An-Tu-Tu tester) require version 4.1. Most likely, the system software of this Tablet PC will no longer be updated. Therefore, owners will have to work with what is available. This nuance must be taken into account before purchasing.

Communications

The Note N8000 tablet is equipped with a rich set of communications. First of all, these are bluetooth (perfect for connecting other mobile devices), Wi-Fi (provides maximum data exchange speed when connecting to the Internet) and a 4G modem. The last option allows this device function in any mobile networks that exist today. At the same time, the owner of the tablet is not tied to anything, but can exchange data with global web in any corner of the globe where there is mobile communications. Also, do not forget that it is possible to make calls. True, it’s better to talk with headphones. The tablet has a large diagonal, so it is not entirely convenient to use it for these purposes. Among wired communications, there is the ability to connect via a universal serial interface USB. For navigation, transmitters for working with GPS and GLONASS systems are integrated into the gadget. This will allow you to easily determine your location. All this is enough to comfortably fill this device with all the necessary information and navigate around the area.

Results

From the perspective of technical specifications and software The Samsung Galaxy Note N8000 looks flawless. The price is very high. Similar tablets personal computers other manufacturers are much cheaper. For example, Lenovo Yoga can be purchased much cheaper. The device from Samsung costs $450, and Chinese manufacturer such a device is valued at 375. From this side, buying a device from a Korean manufacturer is not entirely justified.

Perhaps the most unpleasant trap that a future tablet user can fall into when purchasing it is a fake. One of the most popular models for copying by scammers recently has become tablet computer Samsung n8000.

Chinese tablet Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 n8000

From a logical point of view, this is quite understandable - the Samsung n8000 has all the characteristics of a modern tablet in the above-average category: good resolution 10.1 inch screen, powerful processor, large amount of memory, etc. Not to mention the fact that the name itself Samsung has long become synonymous with quality and advanced technology in the mobile device market.

Price real Samsung n8000 does not fall below 500 USD At the same time, more and more often messages are appearing on the Internet about identified counterfeits that were purchased second-hand or even in communication shops for mere pennies. As a rule, the user ends up with a device whose capabilities are very limited compared to the original.
For example, the screen resolution of a Chinese counterfeit Samsung n8000 tablet may be significantly lower, the battery may well be old and used, which means it will no longer be able to hold a charge well or will constantly fail. In addition, you should not expect official Samsung applications (such as Samsung Apps) to work normally on such a device; they may not even be there.

How to recognize a Chinese counterfeit Samsung n8000 tablet

• Due to the low screen resolution, icons and other elements in the fake model look unnaturally large. As a rule, by the way, on the box or instructions for the device there is an image of a real tablet with small icons. Just compare them.
• A low-quality battery very often reveals a fake. Pay attention to how the charge indicator behaves, and also, of course, for a while battery life. In the original tablet it should be at least 40 hours in standby mode.
• The camera application may be significantly limited in its functionality, and pictures and videos may be of lower quality. The original tablet has a 5 MP rear camera with 4x zoom and LED flash.
• The real amount of free memory of a fake often does not correspond to what is stated in the documentation. This can be seen, for example, when connecting a tablet to a PC.
• By the way, problems in recognizing the device through the Samsung Kies program may also indicate a fake.
