HCL Me V1 Tablet Price in India | Features & Specs

HCL Me V1 is a 7 inch tablet with GSM voice communication support. Nowadays the craze of tablets with SIM card slot is higher than ordinary tablets. Micromax Funbook Talk is very popular in market. You will find plenty of 7 inch tablets but tablet with SIM card slot is an added bonus. Powered by Android 4.0 ICS OS and 1 GHz Cortex A8 processor it runs plenty of applications at the same time. DDR3 1 GB RAM is there as well. It would have been better with a dual core processor.

However, to make this an affordable HCL may have compromised with quality to some extent. Dual camera is there; rear facing camera is a 2 MP one while the front camera is a VGA camera useful for video calling. LED flash is there for low-light capturing. It’s available only with the rear camera. Internal 4 GB storage can be increased by another 32 GB by inserting micro SD card slot.

  1. I wil decide to buy 10k budjet Tablet or Phone
    Micromax A110 or HCL V1 Tablet or FunBook Talk
    My Purpose Net and Video and good Battery Backup
    Which one better from this Pls Suggest me…

  2. I am talking about HCL Me V1 full HD 1080 support mate

  3. is v1 better for regular voice calling?

    • @Hari I am not saying that. HCL Me V1 is a tablet that supports calling. Micromax A110 is a smartphone that is more suitable for calling IMO. As I said earlier if you use tablet for occasional calling it’s fine. But frequent calling is better with a smartphone. Just consider it if you have a Tata or Reliance Walky without wire. You carry it instead of a mobile. How does that sound? You can do that but not convincingly. Similarly, tablet with calling is good but it’s even better in a mobile. You can’t hold a 7 inch thing easily in your palm. Now it’s up to you.

      • hi, i purchased hcl v1 tablet yesterday, but this tablet is not recognising the sim. what shall i do to use this to make phone calls. Pls reply thanks

  4. Hey Manidip..thanks for sharing such an informative ifo with us…actually i want to have a low budget branded tab so i am shortlisting HCL v1… well pls let me know if this tab go good with Skype chat/calling?? as i’ve to entertain my clients round-a-clock and also what about the battery back up?
    - Regards
    Rishabh

  6. Does HCL me V 1 have A GPS,Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and PDF software feature as in any android based smartphone ……..?
    I have seen one tab with similar features Viewsonic vpad 7 but with old 600 mhz processor and 512 mb Ram.
    Logically Hcl ME V1 has better feature set as compared to Viewsonic vPAD 7 but some features like A GPS , inbuilt 3G ,Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and PDF software are better in V PAD 7.
    Can you let me know which of the both should I buy……….?

    • @Rohit yes HCL Me V1 support MS Office suite. Possibly, it lacks A-GPS. I need to confirm this. Rest of the features of HCL Me V1 tab are better than ViewPad 7.

  7. does hcl me v1 support skype and google play store

  16. Can you suggest and give comparison between HCL Me V1 and Swipe All in all Tab. I want use it as Tab and not for frequent calling.

  17. VIJENDRA SINGH says:

    Sir can i download video chat application in HCL V1 & suggest me which application support in v1

    • I have gone through several negative sides of this tablet in last few days. If you have not purchased it leave it. Give another tablet in this segment a try. Skype must work as a video chat client. I am not sure whether it supports Skype or not. There is no Google Play installed. It’s difficult to install Google Play in HCL tablets. Rest depends on you.

  18. micromax canvas 2 vs hcl me v1 . Who is better for gaming

    • Advantage of HCL Me V1 tablet is large display and 1 GB RAM. But the processor is single core 1 GHz. On the other hand, Canvas 2 has dual core processor but 512 MB RAM. Go for Canvas 2.

  19. how many gpu in micromax canvas2 and hcl me v1

  20. can u plz suges me ,its r good for calling not so much but litile bit calling ,,or it is good or not ,in a buget 8000

    • Go for other tablet i.e. Micromax Funbook Talk or some other tab instead of this one. I personally think without Google Play an Android tab is just like a a soul without spirit. You may face lot of difficulties installing Play in this tab. Rather go for one that has Google Play pre-installed.

      • Hi everyone,
        i have a hcl v1 tab since last 25 days. i took it to hcl service centre for some other fault. however , they rectified the fault and also installed google play also. the google play is working fine and i can install the apps from google play. I can not say this a great tab but is a good budget tab.

        thanks

      • I suggest you to buy HCL me V1 tablet is cheap & best android tablet, it supoprts me apps and android market, 1mobile market, zedge, my apps, slideme apps instead of google play, there is lot of apps games in that apps so we can download lakhs of apps & games including angry birs, temple run,

  21. are u sure that HCL V1 supports google play store becaue another hcl me tablets does’nt support google store , they have hcl own apps store…..plz reply..

  22. Sir I want to know does hcl me v1 supports pen drive & 3g dongle as i have seen in tablet review that it is not supporting dongle as well as pendrive.plz clear my doubt…

  23. Avijit Chowdhury says:

    Hi Manidip, few information and help that I need from you before I can get into a decision whether to buy HCL Me V1 or Micromax Talk.
    1) Does any of the Tab supports 3G connection, and if yes then what is the Upload and Download speed that it gives?
    2) Does in any of the Tab Google play is pre-installed?
    3) What all video and audio formats that gets supported in HCL Me? I have checked many other websites and there it is mentioned that it only supports Mp3 and Mp4 format. Is that correct? Then how we can play other format files?
    4) As you have mentioned HCL Me RAM is 1GB DDR3, which is more than Micromax, so is it will support high-end games?
    5) Does HCL Me supports browsers like Firefox or Chrome? Does it have a Adobe reader and flash player and will I be able to access my emails or edit them or send a new email from this HCL Tab?
    6) What is the maximum battery backup time in HCL when using it for calling or playing high end games or just surfing net?
    That is all what I want to ask you. I really expect a quick and satisfying feedback from you regarding all my queries.
    Thank You.

    • Avijit Chowdhury says:

      Hi Manidip, this is Avijit once again … I am sorry to say but I think you don’t have any answers to my questions. That may be the reason you are not being able to answer any of my questions that I asked you .. Anyways if you are not the one to answer then there are other peoples also who will be able to answer my queries. Thank you very much …!!!

  24. HCL V 1 tablet : My gprs get disconnect constant and does not auto start

  25. can you have any idea about service centre available in mumbai

  26. Which 1 is better hcl me v1 or micromax funbook ??

    • dont purchase hcl me v1 because there are lots of problem in v1 tab gprs not working disconnected frequently, after installing softwares creates network problem. not google play. without google play there is no use of tablet or mobile

      • You are right, so many people are complaining on the same. HCL must fix all these issues and install Google Play before they set a tab to launch. They are just considering everyone is tech geek. This is ridiculous.

  27. Avijit Chowdhury says:

    Manidip, you did not answer to my questions that I asked you on 16 Jan 2013. I am waiting for your reply.

  28. parthiban p says:

  29. which one is better hcl v1 or acer iconia b1 my budget 8k plz suggest any gud tab

    • The advantage of HCL Me V1 is it has SIM card slot and 1 GB RAM. Acer Iconia B1 lacks SIM card slot and voice calling facility. Also the RAM is 512 MB but dual core processor is there. But the biggest disappointment of HCL V1 is it comes without Google Play installed. You may face tough challenges while installing it.

  30. or i should wait 4 more new launches…….

    sir do answer, this has been asked to you 5 times before at least this time give answer

  40. hi mandip. i am a great fan of your work. you are the lightening fast when it comes to review and especially tablet section. i have a small query. hope you would answer it to the earliest.can a single core 1 ghz processor(cortex a8) coupled with 1 gb RAM and 400 mali 3d GPU play high definition games like fifa 12 and asphalt 7?

    • It can support games like fifa 12 asphalt 6 and 7.It is capable of doing so but before that you need google play to install these type of high definition games and i think its a really difficult task to install play store.You can get some tips on the site Ask Me Fast.

  41. anjan ganguly says:

    I have purchased HCL ME V1 tab. I can surf 2G internet through calling SIM. But there is a problem in downloading games like below 1 MB from ME Apps. Can I get 3G speed internet through calling SIM or I have to do it separately via dongle ?

  42. Amit Saha,Siliguri,West Bengal says:

    Friends I will say 1 thing hcl me v1 is very good tab I am using it and I am satisfied it support all types of video format I am downloading apps from 1mobile market and the 3g speed is also good……….

    • Vijay sharma says:

      Mr.amit is there any drawback in hcl v1.does it really work as a voice calling tablet.3d games is there or not

  43. anjan ganguly says:

    Thanks Manidip. One more thing to ask. Yesterday i have tried with a Beetel 3G dongle the set up of which could not be done after so many attempts. Is there any 3G dongle exclusively for Tablets run by Android ?

    • Yes, each tablet comes with some dongle lock. It’s basically a business strategy. I am not sure but Beetel might not be in the list of supported dongles. That’s why it’s not working. It’s not a generic problem of the tablet. Before purchasing a new dongle confirm it from HCL Care.

  44. anjan ganguly says:

    many many thanks Mandip.

  45. SUYASH AGRAWAL says:
