Q: QuestionWould I be able to launch the web and use Microsoft office on this device?

Asked 5 years ago by Nini21.

• A:Answer Hello, This tablet does have an internet browser, it uses the Silk Browser. I am not sure if it would work very well as these tablets only have a 2G of Ram, meaning they are not very fast when running huge programs like that. This is not a computer, but just a light version, and does not have all of the processing power of a computer. It also does not have the ability to download apps like Word and Excel, but there are versions of Word Processors/Note pads you could download.
