While some users wish for more RAM, the positive feedback on the screen, usability, and battery life outweighs this concern. The camera quality received mixed reviews.

    The picture quality is not good for streaming and watching movies. If you want stream pick another tablet. If you need to work; it is a good product.

    Close to the price of an entry iPad but nowhere close to performance or ease of use. But if you are all Android all the time it’s ok.

    I would love this tablet except for one thing -- there's no way I can use this while it's charging because the power cord is just too darn short.
