    This Lenovo tablet is by far the worst piece of technology I have ever purchased. This is incredibly dispointing because it was a gift for someone that I didn’t even see until after the 30 days from purchase and she felt so bad about it she didn’t tell me until recently. She cannot load any apps and sometimes the google searching capabilities are disabled. I would just like to exchange this for something that would work for her.

    I did not think I would like this because the screen is smaller than I am used too, it is better than the 10 others I have!!
