Not much for me, a locked and smooth 60FPS is good enough for me, but I do understand how higher refresh rates make a difference in responsive gameplay, specially in heavy action and competitive titles. Not all games feel right in very high refresh rates, though, just like many movies feel weird past the usual 24. It depends.
thank you - very informative - ordered Mega 1 yesterday directly from Blackview (gray color is sold out) - looking forward to check it out - value for money is excellent. Didn't know it has no headphone jack. Would be perfect with GPS support for car navigation on a 11.5" screen
Did you try the Oscal elite 1? (I think it is also from blackview) It has a 12.1 inch screen and support stylus pen (as they advertise) and i think it has an aluminium frame
You're better off getting it on AliExpress using the link in the description. It comes directly from the seller including warranty and returns. The Android 13 is a very old tablet, definitely don't get it on Amazon!
I wonder how well the Mega 1 would do Xbox Remote Play. I think the xbox does the work and it just streams to the device. Do you think it would be able to handle that without big issues.
@@RetroBreezeYT is the expansion RAM really works? How? It was mentioned you can have additional 12 GB RAM. Many thanks for this nice informative video!
Nice vid! Planning to buy one. May I ask what controller did you use in the video? Do you think Ipega will also works fine? How do you also enable the additional RAM EXPANSION as claimed? Many thanks...
Blackview Mega 1 with a 50MP camera? That's unexpected! Helio G99 should be able to process photos quickly too. Interesting option for mobile photographers. I think the mediatek chipset is an impressive one!!
Dude, your lisp was in overdrive in this review. Have you considered pursuing speech therapy so you can reel that in? With the proper discipline and focused effort your speech will dramatically improve, a goal you should want to achieve to make listening to your media more palatable.
Thanks for the review. I’ve ordered one for mainly moonlight streaming. I noticed that decode latency with the g99 processors decode is sitting around 20ms which seems standard for this. Something to do with the newer decoder not having low latency mode. Hopefully it gets sorted with a update or something. Out of curiosity, did you notice much Input lag/delay whilst playing sonic ? If possible. If you happen to use moonlight again, could you test it with performance mode on and see what the decode latency is ? I’ve heard it makes a difference ! Thanks :)
Can you not just use a micro c to 3.5mm audio adapter (many people use one for my mobile phones without a physical audio input)? Also Can you not attach a bluetooth keyboard to the Mega 1?
How important is a high refresh rate or high FPS to you?
For MOBA, very important

For pubg mobile it is more than important

Can you update me your information about the received mega 1 and also tell me about the website from where you got the tablet.

Oscal Elite 1 does look better for me good looking out
Reason Tab 18 feels so much larger bigger is its 16:9
That make sense. Still love my Tab 18 and use it every day!
Perfect review about all my concerns (emu + moonlight) !! Thanks a lot!
Guys I can’t find it on Amazon is it the black view android 13

How do frames appear on the tablet like this?
does it play 4k videos on youtube?
It's not a 4K screen, but it's more than powerful enough to play 4K.
Your wishlist link is broken. Also was looking for a link for the hdmi transceiver thing :)
Did the pass through charging work still with the Gamesir G8?

Sounds like a tricky choice between the two tablets! 🤔
You had me at 120 HZ. Thanks kid. That's a buy.
Does the kayboard for the tab 18 match the mega 1 and if so can you let a link for the purchase ?
It does not unfortunately, because they're different sizes.
Hihi. Wow 120Hz. I'm want ask if you have tried black frame insertion to work on it for emulation? Veri thanx in advance! XDDD
How did you split the screen? I cant see the option in my recent apps, how can I enable it?
Open the app switcher, then tap the three dots next to the app you want to split. The two squares icon will start the splitter.
Why do phone and tablet manufacturers bother with making 12GB ram models? WHy not just make it 16GB? Is 12GB any noticeable difference from 8GB ram?
I'm guessing the 12GB chips are cheaper than 16GB for the manufacturer. Personally I think 12 is a good middle ground especially for a budget tablet.
@@RetroBreezeYTIs the 12gb worth the extra money over the 8gb version? Thanks
@@RetroBreezeYT is the expansion RAM really works? How? It was mentioned you can have additional 12 GB RAM. Many thanks for this nice informative video!
Where can I buy one? Amazon?
Walmart
Ali express
Gyro pugb?
Yes!
Any thoughts on this vs the Galaxy Tab A9+ at $220 right now? Snapdragon 695 Octa-Core CPU
Mega 1 helio G99 CPU counterpart with snapdragon is 732G so do the math.
Can this be used as an external gaming monitor?
If you do it wirelessly, using a virtual l monitor, yes. But not using a cable or anything like that.
Kinda jealous. I got the Tab 18 at the launch price so I did make out well
For sure! Love the Tab 18!
Too bad it doesn't come with a case+keyboard combo like the blackview 18. Tempted to get it anyway because of the frame.
I'm assuming a keyboard case will eventually come out!
Dont forget that the helios g99 has terrible performance with moonlight for a very bad decoding time
That's news to me, I have no problems with it. Maybe I'm just not very sensitive to latency!
@@RetroBreezeYT it s a common problem between noonlight and the g99. Parsec is fine (under 6ms)
No dolby atmos is a deal-breaker too bad nice tablet
Definitely check out the Tab 18!
Anyone know if zwift works on it ????
Xiaomi pad 6 max joined the game
I think that's a little too big for me 😅
144hz xiaomi pad 6...
Too low PPI, horrible images
Not exactly budget friendly
The 11 inch galaxy tab s9 is $700 lol this is really budget friendly for a 120hz tablet
It is ok,but xiaomi is much batter choice.
NO WiFi 6 in 2024 !
my internet on cable cant even pull a "Wifi 6" speed
Nice vid! Planning to buy one. May I ask what controller did you use in the video? Do you think Ipega will also works fine? How do you also enable the additional RAM EXPANSION as claimed? Many thanks...
I wonder how the Blackview Mega 1 stacks up against other budget tablets like the Samsung Galaxy Tab A series
By far the best review on RUclips so far.
What about software or security updates ?
no updates for you :)
Blackview Mega 1 with a 50MP camera? That's unexpected! Helio G99 should be able to process photos quickly too. Interesting option for mobile photographers. I think the mediatek chipset is an impressive one!!
Yeah it's pretty good, and the huge viewfinder is awesome too. G99 is a great chip!
@@RetroBreezeYT Hello! They say Helio G99 easily overheats. Is this true in this tablet?
With that 12GB of RAM and Helio G99 processor, you can multitask with ease, switching between apps and browsing the web without any lag.

Which is better, Mega 1 or Tab 18?
Nice review, any idea how it would perform with Diablo Immortal?
Can you work on developing websites on this tablet?
Samsung tuned speakers wow
How many fps on warzone mobile ?
Missed the intro price on Tab 18. Still waiting for a good sale price on it.
AliExpress sale starts tomorrow! Keep an eye out for coupons especially. Still love my Tab 18!

Unless you already had performance mode on :)
WHy do people still complain about no headphone port in 2024??? It's not 1999 anymore.
It's a feature I like and I prefer wired headphones to wireless.
Because people prefer it, just like you prefer pickles on your sandwich
Can you not just use a micro c to 3.5mm audio adapter (many people use one for my mobile phones without a physical audio input)?
Also
Can you not attach a bluetooth keyboard to the Mega 1?
@@karlinguk Of course that would work, but I prefer a 3.5mm port. Yes, Bluetooth accessories will work just fine!
I find devices that use Bluetooth don't work well with speakers as there is a delay which makes playing guitar tabs app hard as it's out of sync
