Customers are saying

Customers commend the 10.1" Portal (1st Generation) for its excellent video calling capabilities, ease of use, and clear, large screen. Many appreciate the Alexa integration and straightforward setup process. However, some users wish for a wider selection of available apps and more comprehensive instructions. The device's strengths lie in its user-friendly design and convenient communication features.

    Bought two portals..the one for the house works well. The second one is for my wife's travel to Europe for her work. We'll see how it does talking over seas.
