Their own lower-end APUs are sooo slow (even worse than Samsung) and the bloated stock ROM doesn’t help. The tablet was borderline unusable without limiting background applications (which for some reason reset every time you reebooted the thing), and it’s not like it ever got any updates.
I think the Thinkpad X130e with the AMD E-240 CPU. That processor, really, was the bad part. Every little single thing you wanted to do was absolutely CPU-bound, even when it was contemporary and new (c. 2011-2012). The amount of time I wasted waiting for the fully hammered CPU to do literally anything was too much.
I bought the laptop used because I figured a tiny Linux laptop would be great. And other aspects of it were fine, such as the display, keyboard, trackpad, build quality, etc. But that stupid CPU totally killed the device. Such a regret.
Any device produced by the Transsion company, a company which exists only to scam ppl out of their hard earned money and create e-waste. They’re the owners of the Infinix, Tecno and Itel mobile lineups
if you want a 2gb ram device produced this year that can get so hot and burn the flesh off your palm, get one of these devices, they’re so prevalent in Africa, India and other developing countries
the marketing budget for each lineup outweighs the RnD budget for the three collectively
It kept telling me its storage was full when it was nowhere close, and then because it only allowed over the air factory resets, it couldn’t even erase and reformat itself. It was the top rated Android phone at the time and it’s why I’ve never gone back.
