    WOW! Simply amazing. All the apps/games are just amazing. Great response time on apps that you download. My reason for the for not making this 5 stars is that it's not the most comfortable fit for my face. It's not horrible and I can endure it for a while, but after a while the bridge of my nose will get sore. Other than that... AMAZING.
