Not the fastest tablet and watching YouTube videos the back of the tablet get very warm but for my grandparents it works fine. I got this tablet so they would not have to search for their glasses to view something on their cell phones and they really like. Its not super fast but its android based, which they are familiar with, large so they both can see pictures or videos, and they can check emails, FB. The tablet can be separated from the keyboard which is very advantageous. I would recommended but don't expect anything super fast, bogs down with many apps running at the same time, and get warm to touch with heavy usage.

I bought this for my mom who plays a lot of games like candy crush, pet rescue and much more. She loves it and it has a long battery life. The plus is the large screen.

The setup was easy, love that you can have a keyboard attached if you want. The only thing I wish was a better quality is if you are watching something on YouTube the video doesn't have the best image. Overall not a bad item.

For $149 you can't beat this tablet. Has the same version of the Google operating system as the latest Samsung tablets and yet costs only about 30% as much. Love the detachable keyboard.

For an inexpensive tablet, the keyboard is quite remarkable. Solid and responsive. Unfortunately, the tablet locks up often, just doing basic internet searches. It is also quite slow for searching. If it did not lock up repeatedly, for the price, I would consider recommending it.

I've used a Windows tablet, a cheapo RCA tablet, my husband's iPad, and I've been a devoted owner to FOUR Kindles and Fires--that said, this (big) beauty is hands down my favorite tablet at the moment.
Reasons:
toughness
flexibility
storage
ease of use
Word processing/syncing with online document drives
Cons
It's heavy
Not as fast as an iPad..? (I guess, but I never expected it to be)
As a manager type who has to be out of the office a lot, I needed a tablet that I could carry around in my car, compose emails, work and edit on documents, do calculations, check references on the web...and I DID NOT want to take my expensive fragile laptop with me everywhere. And I'm working for a start up, so this had to be MY OWN expense, so cost definitely was a consideration!
My husband is an Apple fan boy, but frankly, I'm a little bit sick of Apple and their latest design changes have not endeared them further to me. The cost--for a tablet that might get coffee spilled on it while I drove around--also did not endear them to me.
As an Amazon fangirl, I loved all my iterations of Kindles...and I'd still be using a Fire 100% if Mr. Bezos had just used a standard Android system instead of trying to force a proprietary version on us. I never could do decent word processing on a Fire and the app selection was terrible.
The Windows tablet was great and fast...but Windows takes up so much space that you might as well start at 120kg+ just to run basic programs. Plus, the Windows ecosystem means that you are essentially running full-size regular versions of those programs which is pricey and inconvenient. Plus the tablets themselves (for less storage and inconvenient apps *sigh*) was also more expensive.
I used a super cheapo RCA android tablet for a while and it was tantalizingly close to what I needed, but too slow, and with a crappy keyboard. So I knew I wanted Android, but better hardware. Then I saw this at our local Best Buy and it was love at first sight.
This surfs quickly enough for me (I wasn't expecting Apple speed anyway), it hooks into the VERY robust Android ecosystem. I immediately downloaded Word and Office and they work flawlessly--and all the fancy features that are not on the (FREE) mobile version are all features that I don't normally use anyway. I also downloaded a few games that work fine and are great for wasting a few minutes when I'm sitting around, and the keyboard is full-size, no weird changes and soft and silky. I very rarely double-type a letter(letterr) or hit enter before I'm ready. Battery life is VERY good so far; I can use it off and on all day and still be 60% power at 5:00. It also has acceptable WiFi and tethers very easily to my iPhone.
I can easily get on YouTube and play music if I'm sitting around bored waiting for someone, I can play games, I can log onto Microsoft OneDrive or Google docs and fine tune a presentation or a paper, I can answer emails, and I can look stuff up on the Web. Granted the resolution isn't as nice as on my HD Kindle Fire--and the speakers and the camera aren't as nice as my Iphone's...but that's not what I purchased this for. And it answers the needs that I purchased it for VERY well.
The main downside is that it is *heavy*. Since I mostly carry it in my car, all I ever do is carry it from car to building so it never seems that bad. But carrying it around walking would get very tiresome. For me, the trade off is worth it--I have a (relatively) inexpensive tablet that can do almost everything my laptop can --it can't run heavy resource intensive programs like editing movie or music software or accounting programs of course!!--and all this in a sturdy package--I've dropped it onto carpet 2-3 times and no worse for wear--it is EXACTLY what I needed and what I was looking for!
So far, I've had it for about six weeks, carry it every day and usually use it every day and I'm nothing but happy with it. Now my fave Fire tablet is just for reading books and watching Prime. Sorry, Mr. Bezos.

You can't expect such an inexpensive tablet with keyboard to do much more than what this one does. Light, easy to use and cary. Battery life is good. Cant complain.

Gift for the wife

Bought this as a valentine gift for my beautiful wife. She enjoys using it very much as far as I can tell. She called it a mini computer and EVEN though she didn't get me anything or really do much of anything special I am cool. Not her thing to make a big deal of holidays and stuff. What does bug me is best buy ceased their price match guarantee..well, limited it to within a few days, so when I went back to get a bit of return on my investment I was quickly turned away.

Got this tablet on sale. Was looking for a cheap tablet just to play a few games on. Only problem is that some games I wanted to play didn't work with such a low amount of RAM. Only 1gb in this baby.

Generally happy with this tablet. A bit slow when running games on Google play, and too much garbage in the background which is common with anything that requires Android. I wish they would allow me to uninstall the apps I do not use or want. Over all, even with it being a bit slow I am happy with it so far. I

I was really excited to find a decent priced tablet keyboard combo. But honestly, you get what you pay for with this product.
Pros:
-It's nice looking, pretty slim.
-Android (Google Playstore).
-Easy to set up
Cons:
-The keyboard comes apart from the tablet very easily. One wrong bump, and it comes off.
-If using the tablet as touch screen, and typing with keyboard, it's very easy to accidentally bump mousepad, which causes the pointer to move and mess up what is being typed.
-SUPER SLOW!! Takes forever to load anything (if it loads at all)
-Spend more time restarting crashed apps, than actually being on them (They time out)
I just got this today, and am returning it this weekend when I am off. Definitely better off spending a little more, and getting a product that actually works the way it is supposed to.
