The included keyboard case is very nice. By no means fancy, but easy enough to use. I originally had issues figuring out how to use inputs such as the apostrophe or quotations. To do your input, hold the "Fn" key, and select the key with a blue highlight corresponding to the input you want. The case is very helpful as a stand to use while watching Netflix, and the keyboard quality itself is perfectly fine. There is no track pad however, so if you feel you need mouse support you can look into a Micro USB to USB adapter; I use a Samsung adapter and it gives me no issues. Though I would recommend getting one that has a cord between the Micro USB and USB ports; thicker adapters without the cord, such as the Samsung adapter, will make the case bow out a bit. I haven't seen any warping or cracks in the plastic as a result to this, but it is good to keep in mind.
The battery life isn't great. If you intend to use this for more than a couple of hours, keep a charger handy. It uses the DC charger included in the box, but you can use micro USB as well. Micro USB charges slower, but it's helpful if you need to charge in the car.
The screen resolution is fine; by no means awesome but perfectly fine for watching movies. The screen will look faded in certain angles, so your best bet is to just set it either on your lap or on a table when using it. Otherwise the screen may not look too nice.
The touch screen is responsive. I haven't had any problems with it.
If you leave this charging for too long, it will heat up. I don't think this is dangerous by any means, but you should keep an eye on it regardless. Thankfully, from a dead battery to a full charge it will take about an hour. So as long as you don't leave it charging for more than three hours it shouldn't heat up much.
As far as gaming goes, you should be able to play just about any game in the Play Store on this tablet. Even games like Minecraft Pocket Edition run smoothly enough. There will be the occasional stutter, but it's not bad and is to be expected. Music on this is also fine. The speakers are clear enough for a couple of people to listen to if they're close enough to it, but if you intend to use this for any more than that, you may want to consider either using headphones or using an external speaker. This will not play Pokemon GO, however, as this tablet does not have a rear camera. The front facing camera is honestly quite bad. It looks like you're underwater, and everything has a slight blurred effect to it. However, as long as you're not using this with camera in mind, this is fine. The microphone is also quite bad, so I would recommend using a pair of headphones with a built in mic for this.
In all, this is by no means something spectacular. But for the price you're paying, this exceeds expectations. As of October of 2018 it runs Android 7.1 Nougat. I don't believe it will be upgraded to Oreo, but we'll see. This would be a great gift for a younger child as their first tablet, as well as for someone who just wants a small device for use during travel or for Play Store games without having to use their smart phone. This tablet is 7 inches across and about 4 inches tall. Picture shows comparison to a 13.3 inch Dell Latitude - certainly not of laptop quality, but as a tablet this is very nice. The tablet is also durable as well. The entire outer body, including touch screen, is made of plastic, so it won't crack or break too easily. I would, however, still recommend keeping this tablet in the keyboard case during travel, just for added protection.
I give this a solid 5 of 5 stars. Very nice and easy to use, versatile, and durable. Would make a great gift for both children and the elderly. I would definitely recommend this tablet to someone who is looking for a tablet like this in the price range.
If my review has been helpful, please consider clicking "Yes". I did not receive any promotion or initiative to purchase or review this product; this was purchased with my own money and my review is honest and accurate. Thank you.

That's when I stumbled across this tablet. Sure, it just has 1 gig of ram and runs a mobile os. It isn't a real laptop, but for less than 50 bucks, it is as close as you will get. I use it to send a couple of emails, browse the web, or maybe play a game every once and a while, and it is perfectly capable of performing those tasks.
As mentioned in other reviews, it does run android go, a cheaper less capable version of android, but it has not seemed to effect anything I use the tablet for yet. The screen is a bit blurry, but you kind of stop noticing after a short time of use. At least I did. I do wish it had a usb port. I have not tried an otg adapter yet though, so that may be a solution.
At this price, I can overlook a lot, but haven't had to. The tablet itself is better than I expected at this price. Touchscreen works as expected, the battery lasts pretty much all day with occasional use, and everything seems well built. The description says it comes with android 6.0 installed (and it does) but that will update to 8.1 as soon as you have an internet connection. The fact that it comes with a keyboard/case that is better than any 20 dollar keyboard folio I have used is a definite bonus. It has mechanical keys that make typing easy, and is made of aluminum and plastic that seems durable. Which is good, as I have already dumped it of my lap onto hardwood and concrete a couple of times.
Bottom line, it has a few minor annoyances, but overall is much better than I expected. If you are like me and hate the trend of larger machines like 15 inch laptops and phones the size of small tv's, and don't want to do anything demanding, this tablet makes a good notebook substitute. For the price, give it a try, if you decide it isn't what you are looking for, Amazon returns are easy.
