Surprisingly, Yuga doesn’t have any comments and reviews for this gadget… and it’s been a while now since qube released this tablet.
qube doesn’t have any updates for their product either.
Theres a lot of questions that I think need to be answered.
People were asking for quite sometime now If this gadget is capable for a dual-OS boot.
And when do you plan to correct the keyboard errors I mentioned on page 1?
People who bought this tablet who got the same complain like me with regards to the keyboard errors, I think Qube should replace our keyboard.
Also, you should give us an update for other accessories that’ll be available on your stores.
(like screen guards, NEW leather cover and others)

Hi qube.

I just want to know that I already tried the qube tablet in Gilmore last September or October and it was okay. My question is: Is there any way to increase the RAM memory from 1gb to 2 or 4gb? Because I really want a faster speed and proper keyboard functionality when I am on the field and playing games on the tablet.

Hope for your immediate response. Thanks.

Qube · 15 years ago

thereâ€™s no way to upgrade the memory internally.

benjo · 15 years ago

yes i think there is but it will void your warranty because you will need to open the tablet and change your ram chip.

Aldrin · 15 years ago

I just bought one at alabang. With win7 and office installed, memory is almost at the 800MB. Is there a way to upgrade the internal memory to at least 2gb? Low memory make its difficult to print multiple pages as it needed more cache.

Positive: Long battery life to almost 12hrs.

shine · 15 years ago

sir abe sana po post nyo na review nung unit very soon.. can’t wait! :)

Karla · 15 years ago

very interesting… on the top, it says, windows 7 or Android OS.. possible ba mag dual boot to?

geogetski666 · 15 years ago

may tanong lang po is the performance of the tablet the same as n270 and n455 atom notebooks ?
as for the 12hrs nonstop battery life as in naka play ng video nonstop or standby only ?
and is the pssd replaceable with ordinary 2.5inch sata hdd ? i’m thinking of using this primarily as a comics viewer can this unit run comic rack ?
hope to get some answers :) been eyeing this unit but still very few reviews on z670 and the youtube videos i see on youtube most uses 2gb ddr3 ram :)

Qube · 15 years ago

hello sir, We can’t replace the memory and hard drive because it’s sealed like ipad :)

here’s a user review from our Facebook page:

Santiago Perez – I’ve had this for around 3 weeks now and so far, I’m very impressed. It is one of the few tablets out there with Win7 capability and USB ports. It can power an external DVD Drive and 1TB USB HDD. The leather case was icing on top of the cake as its stylish, and more importantly, useful. Anything you can do with a netbook, you can do with the QTouch. As for the PDF support, I have used Acrobat and Foxit without problems. Battery time can reach the advertized 12 hours, although when doing videos, I was able to squeeze around 9-10 hours.

Overall, I’m very pleased with this purchase. Just what I need.

Carlo · 15 years ago

Jann, here’s my facebook album link if you want to see my simple review on my tablet.
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.262907093727827.69702.100000256150390

Qube, Im already a fan of your facebook page.
^_^

jann · 15 years ago

Sir Abe, review naman on this unit please… been waiting. marami-rami na rin kaming nag-aabang. Tnx and more power!

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 15 years ago

@jann – just requested a review unit. should arrive tomorrow and will have review posted in a week or two.

Carlo · 15 years ago

Okay, so I finally bought this wonderful gadget last Aug.24 at Qube Alabang.
I’ve got some reviews with photos on my facebook album.
My overall rating for this would be:
9/10 (tablet itself ONLY)

What annoys me is when you press the [X] button if you want to close individual tabs of your browser (firefox or chrome).
The leather cover is great. Unfortunately, you cannot detach the keyboard from the leather cover. It would impress me if you can separate the keyboard from the cover. Like if you don’t want to use the keyboard but you want to carry the tablet covered with a decent and sophisticated leather cover – (you will love to see yourself like a Company Executive).
Talking about the keyboard functionality, what annoys me more is that you have to press FUNCTION KEY all the time you press M,J,K,L,:,U,I,O,P in order to type properly… Otherwise, you’ll get 0,1,2,3,+,4,5,6,-.
Example, if you want to type “MAHAL KITA”, and you don’t press the FUNCTION KEY, you’ll get:
“0AHA3 25TA”
Leather Cover w/ Keyboard Rating: 4/10

I installed the following apps on my wonderful tablet:
1) Adobe Acrobat 9 (cracked and working great)
2) MS Office 2007 (cracked and working great)
3) WinRAR
4) GOM Player
5) CCleaner
6) Tune Up Utilities 2011
7) USB Disk Security

This tablet, based on Qube’s description has a 32GB PSSD Hard Disk but mine has a maximum capacity of only 29.8 Giga Byte.
Sadly, after installing all the programs that I think I might need, only 16GB left.
I haven’t installed anti-virus yet on this tablet but try to think how many Giga Bytes will left if I decided to install one.
My solution:
Since this tablet has a MICRO SD CARD slot that supports up to another 32GB of memory-(I guess), I decided to buy 16GB Micro SD Card. On that card, I was able to store my ebooks collection and other documents.

Thank you for reading my simple review.

Qube · 15 years ago

Thanks Carlo, we’ll improve our keyboard in the future, I’ll post your review on our FB fan page, thanks again.:)

jann · 15 years ago

so, can you post the link to your review and photos? =)

kei321 · 15 years ago

boss ask ko lang. theres a sim card slot di ba?
can it be used as a cellphone din ba? :O

so im planning to use a 32 gb microsd
1 tb portable hd
to get the most out of it.

and last. 2 camera ba siya? or 1 lang (in the front) or is there also at the back?

hoping for your reply! im stalking at the tab for a while :)

Carlo · 15 years ago

Like everyone else, I’m waiting for the actual unit review of Sir Abe.
I consider this tablet over an iPad and Iconia.
I want this one to read ebooks (yes, that’s my primary reason why I want one) hehehe.
Kudos to QUBE! Sana may 12months 0%… Yihaaaa!

Joel · 15 years ago

Nice specs. No review yet? Max ram please.

ObiJuan Dela Cruise · 15 years ago

Nasubukan ko na ito one time sa Gilmore store nila… Pero sandali lang…

Looks interesting nga… Sarap siguro maglaro ng Warcraft 3 at Starcraft 1 dyan…. Ehehe. Gulpz!

Cheers!

koks · 15 years ago

rikiboi · 15 years ago

Qube · 15 years ago

Rikiboi · 15 years ago

Qube · 15 years ago

Hi Rikiboi,

Any OS that supports intel processor and intel chipset can be installed, you can play and install any windows application, thank you.

Andi · 15 years ago

Sir Abe wala parin ba yung actual review mo for this unit? I’m really waiting for it.

Stan · 15 years ago

I passed by the SHAW store this morning to check pero wala daw silang stock. I wanted to try it out sana. Looks interesting…

Any way to upgrade it to 2gb RAM? any PCI-E 1x slot that can be used?

ren · 15 years ago

@qube- wala ba kayong live demo unit sa qube alabang? malapit lang kc work place ko sa alabang branch nyo.

Qube · 15 years ago

Hi Ren, yes, we have a QTouch demo unit in our alabang branch, look for Jeff:
DIRECT LINE: (02) 850-2697
Qube Alabang Br: ALABANG-ZAPOTE RD.ALMANZA 1 LAS PIÃ‘AS,METRO MANILA.

Thank you.

abe · 15 years ago

@Qube – thanks for the offer! will email you.

Qube · 15 years ago

Hi Prof Eduards, thank you for the compliment :) Using PSSD will save battery life although the size is quite limited, and there’s no way to upgrade internally, but you can always add more data space thru the MicroSD slot and USB. The advantage of Qtouch over other Windows based tablet is its over 12-HR battery life (2X more battery inside compared to IPAD2), sensitive capacitive screen, and 0 noise because there’s no cpu fan and hard drive(no moving parts), thank you.

Prof. Eduards · 15 years ago

there are only few windows-based tablets and Qube is one of very few who sees windows potential for windows-centric users like me. the low-down is the pssd. is it upgradeable to 2.5″ hdd? now i am torn between qtouch and lenovo s10-3t! kudos to qube! now, you really rock!

minority report · 15 years ago

Hi Prof, try the Acer 1825 PTZ if you can still find it. It has a 300gb hard drive and Win 7 pre installed. It is a bit bigger than the Lenovo but has a faster CPU.

I think the Atom CPU is best paired with SSD drive to have acceptable performance on Windows touch screens as this Qtouch does. If I only knew this was coming out, I would have considered it against the Acer.

Qube · 15 years ago

Hi Carl, if you have time, we have a demo unit in Gilmore, thank you.

carl · 15 years ago

nakakatakot bumili sa QUbe… review please

Qube · 15 years ago

Hello Abe,

Do you do actual unit reviews? if yes, we can lend you a unit for review, this unit is Win 8 compatible, 2x more batteries than ipad2 (12hours Win7), capacitive soft and sensitive screen, if your work requires win7 or if you prefer win7 over other OS, I think this is the best win7 tablet in the market today, mostly because of the long 12 hours battery,we’re also using the latest Fanless Atom z670 designed specifically for tablet, thanks!
