Cube i7 stylus first impression

[majkel_94]

Hi guys!

After you said that the gift pen will be OEM, without Cube branding, I tought that the Chineese factory may produce it for many brands.
And I found that many producents use the same stylus pen!

For example Samsung stylus for and old Slate 7 PC:

There is also an other no-name brand 😀

I have also found other cheap producent – could somebody, who has already the Cube stylus pen (@Chris maybe?), confirms that it’s the same pen?
I would like not to buy a pig in a poke 😀
Look at this photos:

And more 😀

Thanks for help! 😉

@Chris: do you know if a 128GB micro sd will work?

@michal-lytek Great find, that is the pen! 100% exactly the same as the Cube one. Even the box is exactly he same bar the Samsung sticker on it.

@clanna777 Yes palm rejection works as soon as the stylus is detected.

@jan-willem-stoop My 128GB card is dead, but my Samsung 64GB Evo works just fine. Most 128GB cards should work but some brands aren’t detected. The safest bet is using a Samsung 128GB one. I remember Sandisk sometimes wasn’t detected in some tablets.

I’ve read somewhere on Surface Pro related forums that all Wacom pens are produced by them, so either way that bundled one should definitely be ok 🙂

@jan-willem-stoop MicroSD Samsung Evo 128GB is working.

But only 26MB/s R. in case of UHS-I? It should be faster.

Because it’s connected via USB 2.0. 30MB/s for media usage isn’t a bad thing 😛

Great find, that is the pen! 100% exactly the same as the Cube one. Even the box is exactly he same bar the Samsung sticker on it.

I have found that Dell Latitude 10 ST2 use this wacom pen. It’s called Dell V86GG – I’ve already bought one for about $15 so it’s 2x cheaper than the Cube one! 😀

Cant wait to go get my i7 stylus. Speed of Singapore Post to Northern Norway really surprised me. Says dispatched to overseas the 29th of July(Norwegian tracking says it left China at the 27th, still fast), arrived at post office in Northern Norway this morning…

I am in the same boat as some people here. I got mine from geekbuying with KMSPico used to crack/activate it the key i pulled from keyfinder is a general default windows volume license key which confirms that it is most likely an illegal copy.. I opened a paypal dispute and i still have no response I am going to escalate it to a claim. Basically I either want the price match to the $300 sale plus money to buy a legit key or for them to refund me and give me a shipping label to send it back to them. I have the one from the $300 sale coming so not a huge loss if i go that route. Has anyone gotten theirs with the Android insta-switch?

Superdeal on Aliexpress, official Cube Store, from 23rd June by $299 with FAKED Windows 8 Pro?

Anybody same issue?

Wow i finally recieved … the confirmation on myself that DHL knows my parcel now 🙁 But its still in HK. So 1 week and a half before it even got to DHL, that was really my first and last time with DHL 😉 Or the Cube Store is really overdue and normally it doesnt take that long. Idk, anyone ordered also with DHL and can tell me how long it took for them to get the Cube i7 Stylus?

cube sent the package to DHL Hong Kong via normal post.

its not DHLs fault.

DHL didnt directly pick up the package from Cube reason it took so long.

China is a big place .

My tablet has just arrived this morning 10:00 BST here in the UK from the Royal Mail via Singapore Post.

Edit: forgot to say the free stylus was in the box, no keyboard though!

Thanks for the information. Cube didnt expect to get that many orders then 🙂 Maybe i recieve it this week finally 🙂

bank holiday here so mine is stuck in the UK till tomorrow so i probably wont get it till Wednesday now.

funny how people who chose the cheaper Singapore post received it quicker than express DHL expensive option.

im not impressed.

A friend who bought a Cube i7 stylus from the cube store has just had his delivered. And yes, it is the Windows 8.1 pro version with… you guessed it, cracked activation with kmspico. So it seems they now all have this and not just those bought from Geekbuying. No wonder they’re cheap. I emailed Geekbuying about this and they said they could send me a key, but it would be for Chinese language only. Its probably the same volume licence key that is already used on the device, with an expiry of sometime in December 2015 (if I recall correctly). Sad thing is, kmspico works both on Windows 8.1 AND Windows 10, so it seems not even Microsoft care. Updating a pirated kms-activated Windows 8.1 pro to Windows 10 pro gives you a fully activated volume licence OS, even when kmspico has been uninstalled.

Be careful buying Windows 8.1 keys online from the likes of g2a. Yes they’re cheap, but they’re probably not legitimate. Probably stolen keys, student, MSDN keys or keys that have been sold several times over that will undoubtly get blocked once MS find out. Asking Geekbuying or the cube store for an activation key will probably just end in them sending you a volume key or any other illegal key that will probably get blocked at some point. Makes me wonder how widespread this windows key issue is with other Chinese tablets in general.
