So far is good. Did not have any problems, installed tons of applications, everything runs fine.

Surprised that there are no interested Pipo M6 users - where are you, guys?

Not many have the M6 yet. I love this tablet though

Only difficulty i have encountered so far is getting it recognized by adb. Solved that by adding the line 0x2207 to adb_usb.ini and after that it was easy to root

Great screen, looking forward to the next firmware update wherein they should be using the rk3188 sdk 2.0

I found a review of an early beta

I believe this is the latest M6 firmware, it says it has SDK 2.0

I have the tablet coming. Can someone post a link or give instructions that a noob with this device can follow to root and install the rooted firmware? Thanks

Use Rockchipbatch tool V1.7, it should be easy.

Does this firmware make a difference in the performance of the tablet? And thanks for your help.

The most important difference for me is that you get root access.

I have not used the original firmware for long enough to compare, but I am completely

happy with the rooted firmware. I have to say that it is mine nearly first experience with

Android.

So is this truly the best of the retina display Chinese tablets? I was also looking at the voyo a15. Also how do the front speakers sound and where is the best place to get this tablet in a timely manner and fire price? I just returned a nexus 10. I felt like it was too expensive. The screen resolution is high but colors aren't true on the nexus.

I like the display, but the speakers are not so powerful, I use an external audio system.

About the sellers - my advice is to contact them first and make sure they have the product

on stock. I made a mistake and was waiting for nearly a month to get the tablet and still

waiting for additional components I've ordered on May 27. They even do not give me a date

of the supposed delivery.

I have installed the #17 sdk 2.0 version, but I went back to normal resolution rather than HD (1600*1200 rather than 2048*1538). It is more fluid and does wonders for the Antutu score (>16000) and you don't notice any real difference in terms of definition or colours.

Let's hope they will continue to optimize the sdk 2.0 and the mali drivers
