Satellite TV, as practice shows, is becoming more accessible to each of us. We already have low-cost operators of this TV format, which allows you to watch channels without restrictions from all over the world.
Naturally, the newest mobile technologies could not but intervene in this area. Agree, watching TV portable is cooler than in the format that has been operating in recent decades - a large, stationary screen located in one place.
Today, in addition to a wide plasma TV, you can install a compact device in your home that will connect to the translator using a Wi-Fi signal. Thus, it will be possible to enjoy your favorite programs, for example, lying on the couch, at arm's length. The GS700 (tablet) helps to realize this. Reviews about it, as well as brief characteristics of the device, are given in this article.
What is the GS700 tablet?
So, let's start with a brief explanation of why this device is needed at all. The description of the device indicates that the GS700 is a tablet. "Tricolor TV" is a company that presents it on the market together with the developer (GS),offers along with it also a translator. The latter, as noted above, allows you to connect several TVs at once to a signal transmitted from a satellite. So, if you have a large apartment or house with multiple TVs (or just one, but you want to watch from the GS700 as well), this kit is just the perfect solution. And, of course, in addition to being able to enjoy satellite TV, you also get the GS700 (tablet) in addition. User reviews indicate that even without a signal connection, the device is a good "toy". And with it, you can chat on Skype, watch downloaded movies, use a browser, read books. In general, full multifunctionality!
Device design
Even if we take into account only the appearance of the tablet, it can be called cute. In fact, it is not much different from most budget Chinese devices - it has the same rectangular shape, but it is made of high-quality, pleasant to the touch plastic. As noted by the reviews characterizing the GS700 tablet, there are not even any defects in the assembly - all panels fit perfectly to each other, no backlash and creaking are observed.
As for buttons and navigation, there are sound keys at the top, while there is no central "home" button. Instead, the developers placed the logo of the company GS, which produces devices.
Tablet processor
The design of the GS700, as you can see, is top notch. As for the "stuffing", theneverything is fine here. The Tricolor GS700 tablet works (user reviews confirm the convenience of such a solution) based on the MTK8127 Quad Core. This implies that the computer has 4 cores. No, this, of course, is not the most advanced solution, but it is quite suitable for a device of this class. Although the tablet is not tasked with playing bulky applications and games (although it will undoubtedly “pull” them), such details will allow it to cope with its tasks with a bang.
The RAM on the device has a capacity of 1 GB, which, according to those who leave reviews about the GS700 (tablet), is enough for fast and dynamic work. There were no slowdowns when scrolling through the menu either - the tablet is quite “nimble”.
Graphics
By the way, do not forget about the schedule, because this is a key issue for people who want to watch TV from their computer. So, the GS700 operates on the Mali 450 MP4 Quad Core graphics engine. Paired with a seven-inch screen with a resolution of 1024 x 800 pixels, such software is capable of producing an excellent picture that will suit most users. Even if we take into account the playback of modern games, then the GS700 (tablet) - reviews will confirm this - copes with this at the proper level. This is a good indicator for a budget device whose main goal is not to work with demanding applications.
Operating system
Of course, characterizing the OS,on which the GS700 runs, we will not tell readers anything new. This is, of course, Android 4.4.4. This version is the most stable, although not new at the moment. Now (for reference) there is already version 5.1.1, which is installed on Nexus devices. Nevertheless, even with such a system, the GS700 (tablet) works, the reviews will not let you lie - it's excellent. The structure and logic of the system, features make it convenient and easy for any user!
True, it’s not worth hoping that the model will be updated to Lollipop with KitKat in the future: most likely, no one will develop a software solution for such an operation on a budget computer. And this statement is well founded. Perhaps in the future the developer will simply release a new, more modern analogue than the Tricolor TV GS700 tablet. Consumer feedback and expectations can play a role in this.
GS700 Battery
If we are talking about the mobility of the gadget, its compactness and the ability to walk around the house with it, for example, and enjoy your favorite satellite TV, then, of course, the user will be interested in knowing about the capabilities of the device's battery. In fact, the GS700 (tablet) - the manual, however, does not contain this information, the information is based, rather, on the personal observations of some buyers - is able to hold out in active work for 8-12 hours. It all depends on the strength of the Wi-Fi signal, as well as settings such as mobile networks and screen brightness. The battery capacity that comes with the tablet in the basic version is 2800 mAh. As a last resort, if markedabove time someone will not be enough, you can solve the problem at any time by connecting the device to the mains charger or power bank.
The cost of the tablet and equipment
As already noted, the GS700 (the tablet you will see in the article) is a typical budget device. You can buy it at a price of 13 thousand rubles. A pair of translators will be supplied with the tablet computer, capable of receiving a signal and transmitting it using a Wi-Fi format connection (this was already mentioned above). Not a bad deal, right?
And for 14 thousand rubles, the masters will install and set up a tablet from Tricolor TV GS700 for you. Feedback from those who have already used this turnkey service speaks of the practicality of the solution in this case as well. And, of course, the tablet itself comes in a complete package, including a charger, a PC connection cable, instructions. By the way, it does not describe a lot of things - this does not make sense, since working with Android KitKat does not require any special knowledge. All a person needs to know is the combination of translators. However, in the case of ordering a customization, even this is not useful. See how easy it is to get a Tricolor TV GS700 tablet! Feedback from customers confirms that the company serves quickly enough, and the whole procedure itself is simple.
User reviews
We will publish some more recommendations from those who have already used this functionality. It, as you remember, in addition to the package for broadcasting a TV signal, also includestablet GS700. Reviews in general indicate a fairly high rating for this product. People note how convenient it is to receive two profitable products at the same time - satellite TV and a portable mobile device that can work in any conditions. It turns out that the buyer saves on this service, organized by Tricolor TV. This can explain the demand for the product.
More GS700 - a tablet, the reviews of which we have given above - can be noted as a high-performance, multifunctional device at an affordable price. With such characteristics, it is difficult to find even products from a Chinese noname company at the same price. This is all due to the fact that Tricolor TV is profitable to sell this line so cheaply, because each device purchased by the client also includes a package for television services, which will need to be paid for in the future. It turns out some kind of "subscription", from which it is beneficial for both parties.
In fact, you can feel the same benefit. As you have already read, the GS700 (the tablet reviewed in this article) is a good solution. If you're into satellite TV, you might want to consider purchasing this "portable screen" that you can move around your apartment or home.
