    It's a great tablet for the money. If you are using the tablet for gaming, web browsing and e-reader then this tablet is perfect for you. I have had no problems with lag on the tablet and recommend putting the opera browser on the tablet for better internet use. No problems that I have seen with games, but I haven't played anything yet that requires a lot from the tablet. Only con is no HDMI out but for the price you can't beat it.

    I love this tablet, it's great for school. I didn't know where to start when I was inform that I had to get ebooks for school. Which mean I needed a relable tablet. It's easy to carry around, easy set up with mult apps included. At $99, why not? Since then I've been in heaven. I can also check emails and play games. The best of all worlds.

    Purchased this for my mother so she can browse the Web and use some apps such as pinterest. It was a sale item so for $100.00 I think it does the trick. Screen quality is poor.

    We were on the fence about the whole tablet craze and decided to try a lower end model to see if we liked it. It has been a pleasant surprise. It was much heavier and well built than I expected. New software takes some getting used to, not sure if there is a screen sensitivity setting, but if your finger is on the screen too long, it will switch to that app. Need to play with for a couple of hours to get the hang of it, but once we did, it has been very useful. Much nicer to flip on and go instead of booting up and logging in. Watch the battery, can drop quickly depending on what app you are using. Definitely would recommend.

    Fantastic value at a door buster price

    I have no complaints with this tablet which I bought on a whim as it was one of the few doorbusters left on Thanksgiving eve when I arrived. It is definitely better than I expected and about all I could ask for considering the price. In a perfect word battery would be removable, and tablet up-gradable. But life is perfect, nor is the tablet. It is however a great toy with full access to google play and no real problems thus far. I expect it to last long enough for more 8 and 10 inch tablets to be released at this or lower price points with better specs. Even then the hobbyist in me will find something to do with it. :) A-

    It's possibly my network but it seems like I have to disable WiFi and then enable it in order to get on the internet. Navigating the tablet is very simple and easy to use.

    It is a GREAT tablet if you don't care about listening to things without headphones. The volume is very low. Almost inaudible. Everything else about the Tablet is great!

    On black Friday, I purchase seven tablets. I love the size of the screen, the function to rotate and the ability to pull up the Bible in Bible Study. I can take and keep notes, do all kinds of business transactions and still have time to play games. This tablet is great, not too big and easy to operate. My grandchildren enjoy having another tool to use at the house instead of trying to get on the computer.

    This is a excellent tablet for the price. Screen quality is just fine for the price. I bought this for my Mother to surf the web and read books, so far she loves it. I would recommend this for anyone but especially for younger children and elderly adults. Tablet is very easy to use and set up. And overall build quality is very good, especially for the price. Also remember this is a $100 tablet not $500.

    Was encouraged to get it by my Techie Daughter and Son-in-law. Initially was very discouraged but with their assistance and my persevering it's better than expected. Luckily I got it with a black friday price in the $80.00 area. Since it's my first tablet I can't really say it's bad or better than others. Glad to have it and makes life easier for us...Wife can be on the Net and I can be on the tablet.

    this was bought for my mother who has a major handicap that keeps her from being able to communicate verbally. She also has use of only one hand. She loves to play Slot machine games and Solitaire so I got this for her to play those games. It took some training but she is finally getting it. I gave this an average on features because it is only being used for games. I also think the power button is difficult to use and I am not handicapped.

    I bought this tablet for a four year old child for christmas when it was on sale for $79.99 on the website. Not wanting to spend a lot on a tablet for a young kid i purchased the insignia 8 inch. This tablet has been excellent for my four year old and i even use it some. It connected to wifi easily didnt have a problom like others mentioned. Only downfall i would say is the speaker is not very loud. Would be nuce to have a rear facing camera especailky if you was going to spend the not on sale price of $199.99 ...
