    This is the older model, the newer model isnt that much better but has a little bit of a better processor making it at least bearable to use.

    A basic, easy to use tablet with bluetooth capability. It isn't anything fancy, but serves the purpose for my grandson who is 8 years old.

    Bought my daughter a decent tablet to use. Such an upgrade from the cheap Verizon ellipses she had. Does everything we need it to do, and does it fast. Definitely would buy again.

    Mostly bought to cast to TV but not optimized for Chromecast so returned it. Probably fine for games, books, music just not casting.

    The speed is the main concern I have, i expected way better speed. Resolution is ok but you cant compare with the branded names.

    Bought this on 11/27/15 and as of 11/19/16 it won't hold a charge. It will only stay on 20 minutes max in battery saver mode with only one app open, location and bluetooth off. Before that it was working great; and while I was glad of the price, I'm quite leary of buying another one of these.
