And now ... I admit it, I was guided to purchase the "Bravio" also from the favorable Easter special price and from the existing 5-star rating Super (Ver).
As always carried out the delivery by Amazon quickly and reliably. The "Odys Bravio" with accompanying accessories is quite appealing and space-saving packaging therefore. Unpacking and a first switching make easily even without reading the accompanying Quick Start Guide.
After a few seconds Googels Android 4.2 Jelly Bean reports with a colorful screen, for me my first encounter with the "human-like (Android)" Google operating system. The operation is quite intuitive, even a mausgewöhnter "Windows Depp" no Android smartphone as I find your way quickly. However, had and I have the impression that the touchscreen of Bravio reacts sometimes too imprecise and somewhat sluggish for my sausage fingers.
Next, I tried to get on the internet with the "Bravio" via WLAN. This, too, worked well after some initial hiccups. Then when another Try it struck me that the set played, detailed instruction manual not for the "Odys Bravio" but for the "Odys Junior tab". When comparing the two "Odyse" you can actually find a lot of matching in the hardware sector. As in the software industry at the start screen but are differences, a set played real "Bravio" instructions would certainly not have been a mistake, especially since I could not find -Anleitung on the website Odys no "Bravio". Sure, not a huge problem, but still annoying, especially for Android phone and tablet newbies.
Meanwhile, night had fallen, I took my new acquisition to bed. My Sailing as an alarm clock cell phone I had forgotten in the living room. But no problem, but the "Bravio" also has an alarm clock app. So alarm and sound set. The next morning I was awakened even almost on time, but not from "Bravio" but luckily my son. My "Bravio '' asleep 'yet, that is, the screen was dark. I briefly pressed the power button, the screen went to and already started the alarm clock app to fulfill their task, though about 10 min. Later, when adjusted. I have the Ringer problem googled times and the problem seems familiar at least with the "Odys Next" and to be partially solved. Perhaps a solution would indeed be in a suitable guide to find been ;-).
Having a Google Account you has done, you can download and install the Google App Store apps and games. I tried this with a free EA game (Monopoly Bingo). Download and install were not a problem, but a play was not possible due to a constantly upside-game screen. No matter how I held the tablet, the screen was always runs around. The G sensor attended properly calibrated, only the game screen behaved as "crazy." Sure, this may also be an error in the game and I would also be able to switch off the automatic screen rotation.
For me, the question arises whether the "Bravio" now a viable and serious piece of hardware, or rather a toy for technology and support fell Linux-Unix Android freaks is ... I know I'm a party pooper, but I tend more to zweiteren.
UPDATE 05/25/2014
When you perform an update today for a suitable description Bravio was installed. A solution of the above-mentioned clock problem is there but unfortunately not in it ;-).
The Amazon Easter special price of 89.95 has become the normal price.
My "toy" I really want to, despite minor shortcomings, not to miss.
Since the "Bravio" yes now has an appropriate guide and one of my criticisms, I was now increasing consequently my rating from 3 to 4 stars.
