Window (Yuandao) N90 Fast Tab Android ICS Tablet

In the past months we’ve covered a handful of affordable tablets from China. It came in different shapes and sizes and in all honesty they were pretty decently speced as well considering their price. Another Chinese manufactured tablet has recently landed in our doorsteps with the name Window N90 or YuanDao N90. 

The Window N90 comes in a fairly simple box. It comes with a charger, two USB cables one is short and one is more lengthy and a pair of headsets. The short microUSB cable terminates into a female USB 2.0. The tablet runs ICS out of the box which is a common thing nowadays.

This tablet features the same screen size as the iPad. Its 9.7” IPS Capacitive Screen has a pretty decent screen resolution at 1024×768 which has a pixel density of 162ppi. This translates to an above average display quality and view angle. Along with the screen the front also features a 2MP camera.

At the top if one is holding the tablet horizontally, the one of three Sleep/Wake buttons on the tablet along with the volume rocker. On its left side (while on the same orientation) is the second sleep/wake button but this one also acts as the Power button. Also on the left side is the 3.5mm audio port.

On its right side, the last of three sleep/wake buttons along with handful of ports. The tablet has 2 microUSB ports, a microSD slot and charging port.

On the same side, the 2 speakers and small reset hole can be found.

The rear 2MP snapper alongside the tablets logo and the ports’ label can be found at back of the tablet. We’re not completely sure about the make of the back panel. But it really doesn’t look or feel cheap.

Here’s a quick rundown of the Window N90’s specs:

9.7” IPS LCD capacitive display @ 1024×768, 162ppi
1GHz Cortex A8 RockChip RK2918 processor
1GB RAM
GC800 Graphics Engine GPU
8GB internal storage
up to 32GB via microSD card
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, WiFi hotspot
2MP rear camera
2MP front-facing camera
Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich
8,000mAh (2 x 4000mAh) Li-Ion battery
244 x 189 x 9.6mm
607g

Apart from the screen size and resolution, there are other similarities with the N90 and iPad 2 in terms of form factor. Of the two, the N90 is almost a millimeter thicker at 9.6mm compared to the iPad 2’s 8.8mm.

The Chinese tablet is also a bit heftier at 630g than the Cupertino tablet which only weighs 607g. Unlike the iPad 2’s tapered body, the Windows N90 has a more squared body with the sides reinforced with plastic bezel that shields the tablet against occasional bumps.
