    Screen rotation not working most of the time. Worked correctly only last night. Now not working again. Sometimes it will rotate to landscape but will not rotate back. You have to reboot. Touch screen is very accurate and screen excellent. A bit slow, but that is expected. No problem browsing. Light weight. Battery good.

    Purchased the tablet on a whim while shopping. Screen is easy to read. Initially had a problem with the tablet losing the wifi connection but was able to find a fix online. Other issue is it runs extremely slow on many programs. I've rebooted the tablet and also my router but saw little improvement. I would recommend to a friend only with full disclosure.

    Got this as a budget friendly device my child can use in the classroom. My child is thrilled, and takes good care of it, she is so happy to have a device for her Kahoots and other assignments. Suits my pocket and her academic needs. Good investment thus far.

    Got for my parents as a second tablet. GOOD bargain price at 60 dollars after christmas. Case feels a bit cheap, but didnt pay much for it. Make sure to take good care of it amd youll be fine. Just the right size and power for the basic web browsing

    It's a nice Tablet for the price. however don't expect it to do the same as a samsung, Ipad, or a windows book. All in all if your looking for a low cost Tablet to go on the internet, check email, play simple game's and so on, then this is will work just fine

    I bought the Insignia tablet at a store closing. The size of the tablet, and the ease of use, are my reasons for the purchase. The tablet was a display item, and on sale which made the decision to buy it easy. I read a lot and the tablet is ideal for me.

    I bought the tablet for my 7 year old. The camera is awful for any type of face to face app calling. She was unable to Skype or use the Snapchat apps. It's shuts down on her constantly. Her games freeze up. Battery life is okay but nothing like her old Samsung.

    Works for me. Price is what sold me. It was on sale for $59.99 at Best Buy. The size of the Insignia 8'' Flex Tablet is just right for me. I ordered a cover from Walmart for 8.99. No tax or shipping fee. It fits just right.

    I like the tablet but sometimes it is slow. I am not familiar with a tablet & there wasn't any instructions but we ate figuring it out. It is easier to read rail compared to my cell phone. Having fun getting used to my new toy!

    This tablet is running average performance. Don't expect to run this table fast when opening an app. However, once the app is running, the performance seems ok. The device is also running hot on the battery. If you are always running the same app and don't switch to different apps frequently, then it is ok.

    Not the best tablet in the market, but I bought this for my stepdaughter to play on. It's great with a second account with apps and games for her so she can't access things she shouldn't. This tablet runs Android 6, do it's more modern than a lot of the cheaper models in the market. With my child in this device, I wanted to make sure it wasn't too far behind on the software. The older ones have more vulnerabilities due to not being supported anymore. Don't expect this to be the fastest tablet, but a great one for the kiddos at a great price with software that isn't so outdated that it borderlines dangerous for use.

    I bought this for my father for christmas. Him and my mother aren't heavy tech users. For them this tablet works just fine. They mainly use it for light web surfing and specific news/sports apps. For the price it works and is smooth however don't be expected to be blown away by speed or performance.

    This tablet compared to my 11 y/o LG tablet ( cat sat on and broke screen ) is about the same. Only need to put s.d. card in for more storage. It works amazingly and doesn't heat up like some do.

    Capable for solo drone

    Bought this tablet for use with a 3DR solo drone and it has served its purpose well. Runs the app for the drone perfectly fine and receives the live video feed without too much lag. Truth is I bought this because of the low sale price so if I had a mishap out in the field while flying the drone I wouldn't be devastated if it happened to break. Have had no issues with it what-so-ever but I will tell you this is not the quickest tablet out there. Seems sluggish at startup and initially launching apps but after the app is launched and loaded it performs well. I have found it perfectly capable for my intended use but if you're a power user looking for very high performance look higher end.

    I was looking for a second tablet to keep at the office and have had good luck with Insignia products in general. I love this tablet. Good size, good sized screen in that it does not have a large border, controls are easy to get to and intuitive. I have had it for about 6 months now, and -0- problems. It takes a little while to boot up, but I can be patient with that for the money. The size of RAM is sufficient for me as everything runs smoothly, eg, Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, etc. I have 2 different wireless headphones paired, and it connects to both easily.

    I picked this tablet up mainly for the price and appearance. My Dell tablet stopped working after 3 years. I went online Best Buy hoping to see a Dell tablet. Gets very hot when charging. Does not keep charge for long.
