Customers consistently note the 8" Tablet's ease of use, attractive price, and ample screen size as significant advantages. However, concerns regarding battery life and limited storage space are frequently raised. Some users also mention challenges with the device's memory and charging port. Overall, the tablet receives positive feedback for its user-friendliness and affordability, but improvements in battery life and storage capacity are desired.
I needed this tablet to use miracast on my TV through Amazon fire stick. Worked like a charm and now I get to use it for other stuff too. Set up was easy and with windows user friendly. It came with a cube and charging cord. The price was great too.

I buy a couple of these tablets for my daughters and they are excellent, they can watch YouTube videos, play games on the playstore, take photos and record videos. In short, a great choice I highly recommend.

For those looking for a cheap, decent tablet running real Android with the Google Play Store, I recommend the Digiland DL8006. It runs Android 7.0 Nougat in near-stock form. I installed Launcher3, a clone of the original Pixel launcher with left-swipe to Google Feed, and it runs fine on it. The only annoying non-stock aspect to the UI was an extra nav button at the left end of the strip, for screen shots. But I fixed that with a no-root-required app from the GP Store (but it did require connecting to a computer and granting permissions via command line). Is this tablet as good as one that costs over $100? No, but it runs pretty well. No crashes in the first few days and it's generally responsive. There have been some slight UI lags here and there and some stutters on animations in certain games, likely due to the fact that it only has 1 GB of RAM. But if you just need something for basic tasks, it passes the test. The build quality is about on par with the low-end 7" Fire tablet -- not great, but OK. The back is cheap black plastic, but not ugly. The screen is much nicer, however, than the Fire 7 -- it's bright and sharp, with good color. Its specs are about as good as the Fire HD 8, which costs a bit more and, of course, runs Fire OS with the Amazon App Store and is riddled with Amazon ads. No ads here, just a clean Android UI with access to all your favorite Google apps, plus tons more. This tablet only has 8 GB of storage but you can easily upgrade that with a Micro SD card for just a few bucks. And Android 7.0 allows for adoptable storage of SD cards, so you can even run apps off the card if you plan to keep it in the tablet permanently. (Best to get a high-speed Class 10 A1 Micro SD card, though.) If you want a basic Google Android (not Amazon) tablet with an HD screen for stuff like web browsing, email, music, messaging, social media, reading, YouTube, and simple games, this is the lowest-cost decent option I've seen.
