"I write this review as compliments to MP4Nation as they are professionally manage my order in timely fashion.
They are not only fast, but also very informative!
I have order with some other online web store in HK, but they are very very very slow compare to MP4Nation! My order is received less than 2 weeks!"
"My first order from mp4nation.net pleased me much.
I ordered Brainwavz M4 and Fiio E6, sale price was $49 - great for such purchase.
In the same evening, I made order, I got tracking number and after 2 weeks received ma package.
Everything is great and I am thankful for godd service.
Highly recommend mp4nation store."
"Excellent headphones + amp for the money, you can always go better with the amp by spending more but this combination deal is absolutely unbeatable.
Everything sounds more dynamic and clear, headphones come in a case so they are easy to take care of and the amp easily clips to your clothes so it doesn't fly away as I was expecting it to.

"Ordered an Ainol Novo 7 Aurora tablet on the 14th and the order is still just saying processing 4 days later. I have sent multiple inquiries to them and had no response. I understand things happen but comunication would help. Look at this review and then look right below me it seems this is a trend with this place.
WIll I ever get my tablet? Who knows but I would be weary of this place.
p.s. This is the first negative review I have written in a looooooong time."
"Received my Fiio E10, works great, shipping to Europe within 10 days wich is pretty fast for me. Well packaged. All in all, im a happy camper"
"had a pleasant experience shopping at mp4nation, items are priced competitively and free shipping is always appreciated "
"I've ordered FiiO E9 with a gift (Brainwavz Beta w/microphone) and two headphone stands, but when the parcel arrives there were only one stand and no free earphones. The package definitely wasn't damaged, so I suppose these items either was lost before import or somebody simply forgot to put them into the parcel.
And the package looks too simple for such a precise electronic equipment as desktop amp: it's only a paper envelope (though the paper seems pretty rough) with bubble wrap layer inside. It definitely suits headphone stands but not the amp.
But the main part, FiiO E9, arrived undamaged abd turned out to be very nice desktop amp for my AKG K240 and Beyerdynamic DT770. Now I'm able to listen properly any kind of headphones I want to buy and I'm going to order something like AKG K702 soon."
"Order a Fiio E11. came with a pair of free earphones. Delivery was prompt. Package arrived with plenty of cushioning."
"Extremely quick delivery, no issues at all, highly recommend."
"ordered an ainol tablet 3 days ago and my order still says processing, money has gone through so not impressed so far"
"Excellent contact and service, very attractive purchase conditions. I recommend this Seller.

"MP4 Nation:
I bought an Ainol Nova 7 Aurora II tablet after seeing it on OzBargain at a very attractive price.
They advertised 2-3 day FedEx with the order; I ordered Thursday; FedEx picked it up on Tuesday (stock shortage, it seems) and I had it Thursday in Brisbane, Australia.
Communication was great - they sent me an email informing me of the stock shortage and the estimated shipping date and responded quickly to my inquiries.
From my experience - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Ainol Nova 7 Aurora II Tablet:
I had been seriously considering the new Nexus 7, but the lack of an SD card slot was the deal-breaker for me, and considering this tab was about half the price with good reviews, I decided to go ahead with the purchase.
The product box was packed with the charger and a pair of free earbuds inside a padded jiffybag, inside the FedEx plastic bag. It all arrived in perfect condition.
NOTE: the charger is a universal voltage/5V @ 2A out wallwart with a US plug. I had an adapter on hand, so that was okay. The tab will also charge from USB, although at a slower rate depending on the current output of the USB port. Some sellers include an appropriate country adapter.
First impressions - Day 1: Tiny, compared to my Acer A500, and also very light - the packaging weighs almost as much as the tablet itself. The box is also quite strong and the tablet was packed with the screen down, further protecting it.
There is a 'screen protector', which marks easily as others have reported, but it's actually part of the manufacturing process. I will replace it with a real one when it arrives. Battery was at about 75%, allowing playtime before it
had to be charged. The box includes a USB cord, cheap earbuds and two leaflets.
Build quality: The back casing is a dark grey gloss finish metalflake plastic, fine for holding but slippery on almost any surface like a desktop. I have since ordered a portfolio case.
The feel is good, but not solid due to the thin plastic back casing; well fitting buttons with good tactile feedback. It fits nicely in the hands and the power button falls neatly under the left index finger in landscape mode. Some pictures
give an exaggerated impression of the size as they show it with a small woman's hands.
Photos online show the interior build quality as average.
Screen: It's very good. Brightness decreases off axis, but clarity does not. Brightness range is very good, colours and contrast also excellent. The sample videos and pictures show the screen off very well. It compares very favourably with the screen of my Acer A500.
Warms up noticably at the left hand rear (landscape) - not hot - which could be the screen driver. Also warms up in a slightly lower spot when charging.
Sound: surprisingly good as long as it's just you and the tab and you don't mind mono. I plugged in a micro sd with music and the player saw it immediately. Rear casing resonates a bit, noticable when holding the tab. Maximum volume is quite loud and the speaker will distort. Sound is best with some sort of reflector behind the speaker port.
Sound through earbuds or headphones is excellent with no noticable additions like hiss, and the volume will exceed the capacity of your ears!
Usability: Excellent! there are 3 cpu settings: normal, performance and power saving. Normal gives smooth transitions, apps respond quickly etc. I haven't tried any games yet. Movies play quite smoothly using MX Player - the supplied
MoviePlayer app doesn't support some avi formats. It sometimes doesn't recognise a tap on an app or button, but I have seen the same on my A500.
The power save mode is quite sufficient for playing hi-def movies - I have found that it reverts to normal mode after a restart.
WiFi: Hooked it up to my phone wifi hotspot with no problems - it has full signal strength at 5 metres. At home I connected to my G access point - signal strength is 'fair' in my mancave (caravan). At 20m with no obstacles, signal is good so I
won't be attempting the wifi mod at this time (google it). WiFi drops out when the screen blanks, and re-establishes on wakeup - you can override that in settings. I haven't used a wifi analyser- it picks up 5 wifi's to my Dell netbook's 7.
Battery life: 19hrs 15min from a full charge to it shutting down. 2/3 of that time was sleeping with wifi off, the rest with the cpu set to normal, wifi on and minimum screen brightness with me checking the battery level from time to time. The battery usage graph (settings>battery) indicates the standby time should be at least a couple of weeks.
Software: Apps included are sufficient to get you started and include the Google Play Store, movie player and music player, browser and Gmail.
One small disappointment: the USB port is mini USB. A micro USB would allow me to use the charger and cables I already have for my other gadgets.
I'd also like to see a cover for the SD card slot: once you fit one, you're not likely to be changing it too often.
Conclusions: Excellent performance and value for money. If you're after a cheap 7" tablet, highly recommended!!
ps MP4 Nation asked me to do a review - I (and you) will get a one-time $5 credit for writing up my experience."
"I've bought an Ainol V8000HDS portable media player from MP4Nation and I', really satisfied with the services provided by them. Firstly, I made my purchase on 9 Aug 2012 and I managed to receive it on 11 Aug 2012 using Fedex delivery. I was really pleased as the delivery time was shorter than what I had expected.
Secondly, the player was AMAZING! It can play all sorts of formats I threw at it without any lag and the best thing of all, the screen quality is rather crisp and clear.
Highly recommended PMP for anyone out there who needs one!"
"i bought a BW M4 with mic, and it is great. the sound is well balanced and the shipping was fast. mic works well too! i had beta's with mis before, which were great too. thanks!"
"I ordered earphones - SoundMagic PL50. It was very interesting to listen this kind of earphones and I owe to thanks MP4Nation - experience of buying there is perfect. Everything was clear - I paid money via PayPal - in day or two my package was sent. In a week I've just took my package in a post office. Thank you very much, I am really satisfied to work with you!"
