You get what you pay for
on December 3, 2015
Posted by: findog19
I took a chance on this tablet because of the low price, and the saying "You get what you pay for" rings all too true in this case. The tablet itself is fairly decent in terms of construction. The hardware however simply is not adequate enough to even run simple programs. Within minutes of initial installation it took several minutes just to register a WiFi network connection and sign into Google.
There was lag on the screen almost immediately, which is always a bad sign for a brand new device. The keyboard lag was frustrating, but I intended to buy this as a cheap device for my young son so in case he broke it, it could be replaced.
I attempted to download NetFlix, and it informed me that I had to update Google Play services to watch anything on NetFlix. After updating Google Play services, I logged back into NetFlix and videos will not load, even after sitting for a good 10 minutes.
To make matters worse, there are obvious registry problems within the tablet. I could no longer go into the Google Play store without having to sign back into my google account, and when I tried to download apps, I got the "Error 491" message repeatedly. Rebooting and clearing the cacha and data from Google Play Store and Google Play Services did nothing to solve the matter.
Within a span of 48 hours of initially receiving the tablet, I have had to factory reset the device 5 times already, and each time the problems remain. Everything is painfully slow and laggy, and while you can't expect a nice looking screen, it is also noticeably poor quality, and even the orientation seems to be slightly off-center.
The camera is absolutely awful. Again, what can you really expect from a tablet that is so cheap, and I had no intention of using it for photography, but a couple of snaps with the camera produced a couple photos that looked like some sort of lubricant had been smeared all over the lens before use.
Needless to say I will be returning the tablet at my local Best Buy this weekend because it simply does not perform. I would have purchased a Kindle Fire Tablet instead for $49.99, but I find having to use Amazon's App Store a major drawback for purchasing a tablet.
I was hopeful this cheap tablet could run Android 5.1 decently, but I was sorely disappointed and therefore cannot recommend this tablet for even the most basic of applications.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
