    I just ordered a Pipo M9 from aliexpress
    $304 USD inc DHL shipping

    Although the Cube stats seem better, I prefer the lower res screen on the Pipo for increased battery life

      Cube seems a lot cheaper than Pipo. $300 is a bit high for china tablet :(
      Do you know when it'll be delivered, AFAIK it's still pre-sale?

        $300 was pushing it I agree. But from extensive research I felt the Cube build quality was lacking in previous models compared to the Pipo equivalent. Also things like one speaker as opposed to dual speakers on the Pipo.

        First batch of M9's are out, I can imagine they will drop to around $250 in March when they go into full production…

        So I'm expecting bugs to begin with, but to be ironed out with the release 4.2 update in March

        Also they will ship after their new year, so I'm expecting delivery around 26th Feb

          hmm, thanks for your opinion n info. ill wait til price drop then. :-)

    Beware, all these tablets in this vein seem to lack Bluetooth, which means no Bluetooth keyboards, etc. - a major oversight IMHO

    • hesokay on 16/02/2013 - 13:27

      Confirmed with Pipo directly via email the M9 has BT 2.1…
      I'll just see when I get it though, as they tend to lie.
