ibex released the Flytouch 5 over 2 MONTHS ago. Specs: Android 2.3, 10.2", cortex a8 cpu. Which makes them the original releaser of this tablet. iBex released the official tablet over 2 months ago. Now, that some clone factories come around, rogue chinese sellers are saying their clone tablets are Flytouch 3 when they are not. Boxes clearly say they are Superpad III.
iBex released the FT5 when they received the shipment from the factory that they buy them from...in exactly the same way as every other Chinese seller.
This specific thread exist because there are so many different clone factories.
including the one iBex uses
What makes something a clone? if it copies the original bit for bit (or tries).
the many on-line dictonaries have better definitions
Nice thing to know is the the ibex tablets use upgraded components:
Important Flytouch 3 Buying Information - Blogs - aPad.TV The home of the aPad. Forums
This was confirmed when Tim6a custom rom was released, clone sellers like LITB models' wifi stopped working when Tim6a was flashed onto clone units; iBex Units' wifi stopped working.
This is not proof of upgraded components, it is proof that different factories assembled these tablets using different modules (whatever they had to hand) not necessarily better, not necessarily worse.... just different. Where is your proof that all iBex FT3 tablets wifi use upgraded components? You don't have any because it is not true.
People on this thread who do not own this tablet and have never seen the Flytouch 5 / Superpad V2.2 tablet so they should be careful trying to act like experts.
You posted yesterday that you were still waiting for your FT5 so how does that make you an expert? Even when you receive it, how can you compere it with a FT6 as you don't have one?
Point of the story, take everything on here with a grain of salt.
Some people may call me an iBex Fanboi - so what?
So it explains why you keep spamming this forum with your overly biased posts. Feel free to post them on apad.tv where they will be applauded.
I'm proud of it too. Maybe you clone boi's should start having some pride instead of insulting people on these threads.
I am not a 'bois' of any description, I will, and do, advise people to check all sellers, including the one you love so dearly, before making a purchase. I also would prefer to make my own mind up on things without all your biased advertising posts. If you have a link that may be of interest to people post it....ONCE.
No-one is being insulted here.
Another note: non-ibex clone sellers also bombard these threads trying to push their personal agendas (pushing the zenithink z102 or clone ft6).
There are sellers on here, yes. Do they bombard every thread with adverts?....No.....unlike you and the other iBex advertisers.
Lastly, ibex release the latest tablets months before everyone else does, release custom ROMs, Tim6a, FunnyComb Honeycomb rom, and had tablets that are AS described.
Proof?..ibex/chinagrabber did not write the firmware for any of the flytouches, they do not own it, they cannot release any tablet until the firmware owners release it to the masses and you cannot prove when every other seller released their offerings. Tim & FF release updated firmware that work in all FT3's, not just the iBex one. They are based at apad.tv for whatever reason but they do not work for them (AFAIK)
Chinagrabber cant seem to make up their minds whether the FT5 has a hump where the RJ45 is or not. They also seem to be in a bit of a quandary as to whether there is one or two OTG USB ports.....so NOT AS DESCRIBED! (I know it is only a small point but you seem to want to insist that they supply items 'as described')
If knock-off sellers would just say they are selling superpad III then that would be fine. These tablets are NOT all the same.
quote me ONE tangible difference.
Conclusion, I say we all enjoy our Christmas and try to troubleshoot these tablets instead of finger pointing.
Merry Xmas!
Thats a bit rich coming from you. Show me ONE post where you have actually helped someone without posting a link to iBex saying something along the lines of 'send it back and buy a proper one.'
