Onyx only makes ereaders and a phone. Not a tablet. Their readers come close, but they're not tablets. Besides that, Onyx isn't a well known brand either. Please read my post.

I already replied this, but here it is again:
There's a big difference between just "Made in China" and "designed and made in China." Made in China means that it was designed somewhere else and assembled in China to some specifications.

Things that are designed and made in China usually do have sub par design, lacking quality, and overall just aren't worth the money. Onyx is a bit better than the unknown manufacturers, but they still fall victim to bad quality control. Reviews both here and else where confirm this. Heck, the unknown Boyue T62 is considered better than Onyx's T68.
