Deal Extreme offering 50% off a huge selection of items!!

There's Quad Core Tablets (under $100)
http://dx.com/p/freelander-pd30-quad-core-8-ips-capacitive-s…

Exynos 7" tab for $88
http://dx.com/p/freelander-pd10hd-7-ips-exynos4412-quad-core…

THL W8 Quad Core phone ($116)
http://dx.com/p/thl-w8-android-4-1-quad-core-bar-phone-w-5-0…

Update:

http://dx.com/mayhalfprice?utm_source=dx&utm_medium=cdn&utm_…

According to this, they will be rotating the deals throughout the day (800 SKUs with total quantity of 40,000) to cover a bunch of other products too. Check back whenever you can to see if theres anything new!

Update 2:

http://dx.com/mayhalfprice/Default/ShoppingList

They have pushed out another list of more items! It does verify the theory that the initial page was for DX AU deliveries whilst this is the International 50% off section. Please be aware that there will be longer delivery times for this since it needs to be shipped directly from China as opposed to the DX AU (which apparently has warehouse in Perth).

Update 3:
Offer is pretty much officially "Ozbargained" with the only remaining stock to be either very specialist products (Spare battery for product x), Seasonal products (Christmas), or stuff that not many people want. The only thing I am hoping for is that they can fulfill all orders so everyone is happy.

DX has subtly stated however, (Broken English) "If the customers who participate in this activity are more than expected which results in lack of product supply, we have to process refund for the oversold items, please kindly understand." which may account for some people's Paypals reported refunded against.

Update 4:

Have to apologise in advance to anyone who doesnt get the stock for this deal. Despite being the OP and putting the order through before others, I have now received a cancellation against my two orders (W8 and PD10). It is seemingly like a lottery to get stock. Very very disappointed. :(

Update 5:

After a disappointing weekend, DX has now come back to affected customers with a voucher that's worth 15% of the original total order. So, if your order was $200, then they will give you back $30 worth as a rebate in compensation to be used in DX. Apparently the stock is still available - but not it has changed to a different SKU but they are offering 15% off the original price. This is pretty beneficial if your original order was expensive (and hence you can get back a higher rebate value) - but typically most would only have done a $200 order with $30 rebated.

The new link is here: http://dx.com/l/au-direct/2013-02/special-items.aspx

As you can see, the deal is nowhere near as good as before. However, it is up to you as an individual to see if it is still good value enough to continue making the purchases.

      Does anyone know what are the available free TV channels on this Android stick such as mk808 or Ditter V12?

      My wife like to watch Korean/Asian Drama, just curious if those are also avail on this stick.

      Last year I was interested to buy ROKU but then I cancelled because it seems only a few free TV channels available if ROKU is used in Oz.

      Many thanks.

        Didn't watch reviews, but I did read through XDA forums for feedback. I'm more impressed that people say that the battery lasts for more than a day. My SGS2 doesn't last that long. There are some problems with the phone though — some say that the headset volume is either too loud or soft, but that's probably fixable with ROM updates.

    I'm a bit concerned regarding warranty.
    "Customer has to cover shipping cost both way".
    So there is a risk, and if any of the product stop working in a week, then guess what… prepare to bear the shipping cost. So, cheap price vs warranty cost risk…

          im on optus 3g as well @_@
          does this mean it wont work?

        • bamzero on 15/05/2013 - 03:55
          +1

          You won't be able to get 3G unless your in an area with 2100mhz 3g. For the suburbs you'll likely be stuck on 2G speeds, unless the chipset supports 900 and you are able to enable it somehow. Guessing though that being a chinese phone if it supported it, it would be enabled already.

        • MagicTsukai on 15/05/2013 - 03:59

          ah, i live in melbourne city so it should work hopefully =]

        • MagicTsukai on 15/05/2013 - 04:01

          the phone has Frequency GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz, WCDMA 850/2100
          isnt optus using GSM, though?

        • dmc900 on 15/05/2013 - 04:40

          GSM is like 2G no data. WCDMA is like 3G DATA :)
          Well I assume that's the answer! It's late and I'm tired so I could be wrong.

        • ESEMCE on 15/05/2013 - 14:04

    • scrimshaw on 15/05/2013 - 03:10
      +2

      Freelander is not a very popular tablet model (unlike Cube, Ainol, Ramos etc) so there is very little community support in terms of custom ROMS, root methods and such.

      I'm also tempted to upgrade from my Cube U30GT to the Freelander PD80s but I couldn't find any ROMS for it. No instructions on rooting either.

      • Smart not Cheap on 15/05/2013 - 03:13

        Thats another one of my concerns as I pretty much run custom roms on all of my devices (phone, tablets, android head unit for my car).
        But the FREELANDER PD80-HD has some pretty impressive specs and is cheaper than the other one I mentioned. Very tempted…

      • bamzero on 15/05/2013 - 03:46
        +2

        Nothing really, except its more portable and good for casual games (touch screen and tilt controls etc). Good for sitting on the couch and using the internet or playing a game. I don't think it can replace a laptop though.

      • Smart not Cheap on 15/05/2013 - 03:51

        If money is not an issue, I would grab a convertible laptop to suit both needs but they only run Windows 8.

        In my experience, the best OS is Android when it comes to tablets. A tablet however, will not do everything your laptop can do and they serve different purposes. They are more portable (however my ultrabook is extremely portable for what it is), and can serve general needs.

          Thanks for the replies. I've just bought one. It's only $100, and I'm sure I'll find some use for it. My current laptop is 17", so this is definitely more portable.

          Im sure you wont be disapointed, they are great for movies, reading doc's, surfing and extremly portable, i have a few and rarely use my laptop unless im doing serious work… definatly not a replacement, but more for casual use.

      Thinking about those tabs too.. Does the non-HD one have a better processor?

      • Smart not Cheap on 15/05/2013 - 04:00

        I'm not too sure, but I don't think the processor is the decider here.

        The non-HD has bluetooth, the HD does not.

        At the moment, thats the only thing stopping me buying it. Do I really need bluetooth? Other than possibly connecting a bluetooth keyboard, I can't think of anything else??

        • bamzero on 15/05/2013 - 04:54

          I was just about to pull the trigger on the HD one and just noticed that also..

          I've got another tab with bluetooth. I connected a keyboard once to try it out, but not really something I use.

          I did buy bluetooth headphones to watch shows on XBMC over wifi, but trying to use bluetooth headphones at the same time as wifi causes the wifi signal to become basically unusable for some reason. So the one thing I would use bluetooth for I can't. I don't know how many other tabs have this problem but a search did turn up a lot of people complaining about the same problem with various tabs.

          Not sure from the photos if the HD has a full size USB port or thats the HDMI. Wonder if could use one of those compact bluetooth dongles.
