a simple question... do ainol tabs are good? good in all aspects? as shown in most of there specs, they got dual cores and mali gpu and blah blah screen.. do they really worth a money? help me as my elder brother is deciding to get one but i am stopping him cause of Chinese label. i dont hate china ka maal but fear that they just stop working anytime. and yes, how is the devs support?

i have a Ainol novo 10 hero.. and i think it worth the money. n about the dev support cm10 is available unofficialy which runs quit nice.. cm10.1 (jellybean4.2) is also there but not as much stable as cm 10. slatedroid.com is best site for these chinese tabs.
anythin you wanna know more.. just ask.

I have aurora ii in fact posting from it, but bought it for 14k like 6months back, brilliant touch, screen is great, works smooth and good dev support at slated road. Any ainol product over 13k is worth it Imo.

The creaking happens with all Hero's, happens with mine as well. It put me off when I went to try it out the first time, though its not a big issue. I think it's a result of how the glass and aluminium body is fitted together.
I've had two instances where 20% of my screen portion would fail to detect any touches, that also in different places. This was resolved by restarting the device. Apart from that sometimes the tablet does it stuck, but not so often that it becomes an annoyance. Apart from these things I've been really happy with my Ainol tablet.

I agree with your suggestion if you have a 20k budget and you want a great 7 inch tablet then the Nexus 7 is the obvious choice. But if you are looking for a 10 inch tablet in that budget then these Chinese tabs are going to do just fine.

I have used ainol hero and here is a brief review.

battery amazing
screen amazing
movie playback amazing
web browsing good
new version skype not compatible have to use older version
although great gpu still not that good gaming
front cam ok
wifi reception average
JB smoothness not as good as my nexus but still good
speakers amazing

with 2 days in hand i had to press reset button once to revive but overall a good device for movies and browsing.

Thankfully I didn't go for ainol I would be worried if I was facing such issues would have end up selling it and loosing money
