*** The OcUK Ultima 10.1 Thread ***

Mine came about an hour ago. Screen is impressive!

Came fully charged with haribo.

G-sensor seemed off when it first came but fine now. Pleasure to browse on!

Riptide GP running nicely too xD
 
Anyone have dead pixel issues ?

Seems to be 3 completely dead pixels on mine, yes they are small but sorry I expected the screen to be perfect

Grrrrr
 
Android upgrade Flash player workaround

First thing to do is uninstall the Flash player that came with the Ultima, then install the newer upgrade..

Go to Settings
Scroll down to Apps
Adobe Flash payer is at the top click then menu will appear and press uninstall

Then click this link to download the latest Flash player and install it..

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/installers/archive/android/11.1.115.34/install_flash_player_ics.apk

Reboot the Tablet and open your choice of browser but not Chrome and surf to www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer and Voila iPlayer is up and running in a jiffy! Enjoy :D

Hmm unfortunately it appears the screen has a dead pixel right in the middle.

Edit: and now a partially lit one appeared next to it :(

I to have a dead pixel and some dirt in the screen, a bit of a let down considering the rest of the device seems to be 'amazeballs' for the cost. Any suggestions to try and fix these without sending it back as its a bit of a hassle for me ATM :-(

I have also noticed some screen burn/ghost issues when having the on screen keyboard displayed for a few mins, I can see 'q a z' and voice button on dark screens for some time after. This is when the screen is at full brightness.

Construction wise, it feels solid and the colours are great. Sound is a tad quiet but speed of playing 1080p mkv was superb, especially when viewing the video in a small pane (like the note series from Samsung, popup video) while watching a 720p YouTube video and copying music onto it from USB. Not a single hitch.

Got 4 on mine, not sure that some of them may even be dirt behind the screen too like Blackcoat said, going to speak to OCUK now
 
My god... seems the QC is poor on these.

GIBBO does your supplyer have anything to say about these issues?
If I have evan a single dead pixel I will be returning it and buying a galaxy note tablet ;)

Same as our monitor suppliers, they referre us to dead pixel guidelines for LCD screens and say if its within those regulations, tough, if its outside the regulations we'll accept an RMA.

As a consumer you have the protection of DSR regulations, so if you have a dead pixels that are within regulations you can DSR the item. If you have so many that its clearly a fault you can arrange to get it collected and swapped out. :)

Unfortunately the higher resolution, the more prone they seem to be, the Asus Nexus 10 for example has had major issues with its screen.

OcUK does not operate a zero dead pixel guarantee on monitors or tablets, unless explicitly advertised in the product description.

How many are considered a fault? I've counted 6 so far on mine.

I am not actually sure on what the regulations/guidelines are and how many in considered to be a fault. Drop a post in CS/Tech forum as the tech guys will know.

But six sounds a lot so I'd be surprised if the regulations don't deem that faulty.
 
Looks like I have 2 pixels on mine, but one might be dirt, it's smaller in size. Also light bleed from the bottom left corner.
