Everything comes from China products reviews site purchased in China
Recently the Ministry of education gave all teachers of CEFET-RJ a tablet of AB10EC YPY 10.1 inch Positive brand. A good device, Although with several small problems.
Let's start with the good part: the build quality. The tablet is pretty robust and firm, certainly made to withstand the day-to-day. The screen is not that bad plastic scratches easy, and all the yellow part of the sides is tough. Most Chinese tablets is more fragile.
On the back we have pretty big writing: Ministry of education. Looks like they're really scared that these tablets are sold or stolen. The tablet also has this “bumper” yellow for added protection.
So we called the tablet appears “Ministry of Education” again. The first setting has an unlock process at MEC, so that only a teacher can unlock.
The Home default (splash screen) This tablet is horrible: slow and weird. But come on, It's not easy to make a good, lightweight Launcher application. To make this more or less Positive should have left the original Android. I'm glad that I can switch to my favorite ilauncher, described in this text.
The touchscreen is the good part of this tablet, with perfect touch response. Some tablets sold here in Brazil are still resistive models or have bad response. This is very good in this sense.
Even with the bumper, the tablet has this compartment of buttons and connectors.
Without a bumper yellow buttons and connectors are on display: Power, input for DC source, USB, HDMI & headphone. Point to the positive in the case of HDMI, interesting to put what you are using on the projector for a class.
Downside the battery charging system. It is only possible to recharge the battery with a DC source, IE, You can't load using USB as the large majority of Chinese tablets. In other words, Instead we just a mini USB cable to charge the tablet in class is necessary to take the source, a nuisance clog.
The tablet comes with a lot of applications already installed, but I still installed a lot of other. Everything worked.
The ranking is AnTuTu 14240, It is reasonable for a dual core tablet. At the moment the Chinese arrive in tablets 20000 or 30000, IE, don't expect to run games or more complex applications.
The processor is a RockChip dualcore of 1.5 GHz (maximum) with 1 GB of RAM. Not bad, Although most Chinese whether Quad Core. This processor RockChip is very good, second only to the Qualcomm's SnapDragon and the Exynos of Samsung.
The screen resolution is low, only 160DPI in 1280×752. The colors are a bit weak and the screen is not as bright as one of those Apple “Retina”. Even the “Retina” Chinese are much better.
The tablet comes with educational programs installed as this TV School, where you can watch the programming referred to educational TV.
Also the teacher's portal, where there are suggestions for lessons and forums.
And also other educational content. Everything worked, Although a bit slow and with some errors.
Has a front and rear camera of 2 m pixels, but it's not worth even quote. Don't have flash or autofocus, IE, they're after even the current Chinese unbranded tablets.
Installed the MXplayer you can use hardware decoding videos. It worked, Although a bit slow to load and with some defects.
The small defects that I found could be fixed by a new firmware version: the Boot is slow, Some applications crash or takes too long to open, does not have WiFi system Display and Android is just 4.1.1. An upgrade to Android 4.3 on practically all this correct defects. Too bad the positive didn't release update. It's worse than Chinese manufacturer!
However, considering the price the MEC paid, about of 450 real, is a great product. The sound is very good and the build quality is great, certainly better than the Chinese tablets in this price range, even disregarding the taxes. The MEC is to be congratulated for this initiative and the Positive could provide better attention in updates of the software of this potential customer!
The teacher who wants to have a tablet but have not yet received your can follow the link from DX to buy good Quad Chinese Colors, or look for tablets using the ALLChinese tool from the site TudoVemdaChina, finding products in several Chinese websites at the same time.

Good afternoon friend, I know this is an old post but sometimes you are still active here, So I wanted to know if you could help me?, Is it possible to deceive or go through government confirmation?, One of these ended up in my hands and the activation site no longer exists, Is there any way to use it??
Hello good night.
Your post is very interesting. Congratulations managed considering the criticism not only seeing the defects but also the qualities.
Have a positive tablet, and unfortunately my daughter stepped in it accidentally, breaking the screen, I think that is what is on the inside. Could you tell me where I can buy this piece?
Grateful Aracati Maira
Unfortunately, even if you buy the part, What will be very difficult, the Exchange will be quite complicated. Maybe the authorized technical assistance. Even so, do not recommend. Buy another tablet best for less.
My only broke the touch screen (glass) e nao o display. You know how some model that has the same part? Get me ajduar? Thank you!
I doubt very much that there is how to get ask to exchange.
Good night, still have this tablet? I wish to purchase it, even broken. If you are interested please contact. frg01172@live.com.
Just forgot to talk about the time it takes to load: 6 HOURS! And to download it enough 2 hours of video…
In fact the mistake I did was to BUY a Tablet 10″ of these for $ 1,200 .00…
I'm completely sorry! The tablet is slow, delay load, Download fast, crashes with ease… Anyway…
This was a bad idea. Not worth much money. On lock, had a factory reset, go back to the original settings of the tablet. Should work again…
About the battery, two hours of video life Wifi is common in most tablets. Turn off Bluetooth and decrease the brightness of the screen and must improve a little…
Actually I was learning to deal with it, I was reading on the internet about tips on how to enjoy better performance, not a waste of money, but certainly I expected more of an expensive product like this.
Anyway, next time I come here on your forum/blog take a peek in the tips.
Thanks for the reply!
You are welcome! Welcome!
Just a reminder, the Government spent 300 and while this tablet…
Hahahaha no kidding… I want to cry, you could buy an Ipad kkkk
I think an iPad doesn't, but a netbook for sure. In China then… I bought it for 700 real, with taxes, a tablet with Windows 8… review coming soon…
