A great tablet - rugged and reliable.
I've had quite a few tablets over the years, but the HOTWAV R9 Pro easily stands out as one of the toughest and most versatile. The build quality is excellent, it's rugged, solid, and ready for anything. The 11-inch 2K screen is bright, clear, and good to use when I’m reading, watching videos, or browsing the web. The battery life is next-level, I can easily go several days without recharging, even with regular use. Plus, the built-in camping lantern is super bright, I plan to use it the next time I take a camping trip. The cameras are surprisingly good and the Face ID unlocks quickly. It’s a little heavier than a standard tablet, which I've seen several folks complain about, but that’s a small trade-off for how much power and durability you get. Just be aware it’s not compatible with AT&T for calling if you were planning to use the SIM feature. Overall, this is a great tablet for outdoor adventures, work, or everyday heavy-duty use. Highly recommend it if you want a tablet that can actually keep up with real life!

Super battery life for softball weekends on Game Changer!
I got this to run GameChanger to score games for my niece's school, Little League and Select games. The first time I used it was on a Saturday at a tournament during pool play. I scored 3 games back to back to back and the battery was still at 87% when we were done. My phone was at 65% from being a hotspot for connectivity so I just plugged it into the tablet to charge my phone with the included cable. It worked perfectly. You could probably go a whole tournament weekend on a single charge. The bright, high res screen makes using Game Changer super easy. I'm not worried about PNW rain or a small drop with the rugged construction. It is a really good deal for the quality of the product and the reasonable price. Especially with the huge, long lasting battery. The provided screen protector is pretty solid and should keep the screen from getting scratched too.

Not E-SIM compatible despite what they tell you
Great tablet for the price. Had asked before buying if we would be able to transfer esim from iPad and was told yes it was compatible with esim, it's not. Helium shipped a physical sim and activated with no problems. It's heavier than the iPad but definitely not as fragile. A lot of digging around on your own as the manual is pretty much useless, however sets up pretty much like any android. Does have more capabilities than our other rugged tablet.

Fast, powerful, rugged, but heavy
While it's a little early to give a 5-star review on a product I've not had for long, I like pretty much everything about it. The screen is fantastic, much nicer than the typical 1280x800 and similar on budget tablets. I set it up using my Android phone as its source, and it did not take long. I did need to make a few settings changes to get the onscreen buttons and begin placing application icons. It has lots of memory: base 6GB operating, which can be extended up to 20GB (not needed by me yet), and 256GB of storage, so I have not yet added a microSD card. The battery is huge, at 20,000 mAH. It has a big light on it, which is a unique feature, and potentially useful; a "Camping Light" application controls it. It readily connected to my wireless LAN for setup and data transfer, and to Bluetooth to connect to my phone and also to my hearing aid. The only downside is its weight, but for what you're getting, it's a fair price to pay. It does come with mounting brackets to attach a carrying strap, the strap itself, and even includes a "reasonable" (meaning you'd be inclined to keep it) screwdriver to attach those mounting brackets. It is quite rugged, and has silicone covers for its ports, so should be usable outdoors or in rough environments. So far, I haven't found anything not to like about it, considering the weight necessary to account for all it offers.

good!!!
I bought this specifically for my child. It's very sturdy, so I don't have to worry about it getting damaged by him. It's also waterproof and has a large enough memory capacity. It's great!

So far so good with the basic things I am doing THIS moment
Right now, I am only using this as a reader for e-books. Hay, its winter. But I got this thing for that reason as well as running navigation apps for my jeep and planning bike routes when I am out doing my camp N bike trips around the country. So basically, running nav apps, reading books, and watching the occasional movie/show at my camp sight while being a bit bashable. I have not played much with the 64mb camera, but hopefully that will take decent photos. I could care less about the 16mb aimed at your face and not used it. The screen can get pretty bright but have not tried it in full on sun yet because you know, winter. But while reading in bed I have to turn the brightness to 0 as 100 is crazy in a dim lit room. This is a good thing and gives me hope. The thing is probably too heavy as just an e-reader but the battery does last a LONG time. Like read War and Peace a couple times LONG time. When Spring gets here, we shall see how it does. For now, I am happy. Oh, I like the screen. Decent contrast and colors and no APP bloat. I hate app bloat. The camp flashlight is stupid bright. I have no plans on using it but it a nice to have but requires you to go through a screen to turn on, that is, no external button. But it is adjustable which is needed as 100 percent is STUPID bright. I might try and use this with my drone. But between the weight of this AND the DJI controller, it will be beefy weight. So not sure about that but it would be handy for planning routes and what not. I might mess around with that in January when I plan on making some really BAD frozen creek and lake videos. It's a typical Android device. I have it connected up with my wifi in the house right now. But you know the drill if you use Android stuff. It really is just a giant fat cell phone at its heart. I think this will work out well for my needs. edit. 13 months later.... OMG, I use this thing almost every day now. Needs a new screen protector. Been on lots of adventures and survived my Dog sliding around all over the screen.... I have NO idea there but dogo claw marks on the screen protector. =/ It's had falls and been launched across my jeep when forced to hit the brakes. Ya, it is actually rugged. Many falls off the bed when I fall asleep reading which is nothing considering the other things this pour thing has had to endure. One of my better buys in the last year actually.

More or less as advertised
Fantastic tablet even if the RAM gimmick is literally just swap space. I love the screen, its responsiveness, the camping light is a great bonus, the design of the handle on the back is amazing, and it’s durable enough that I don’t mind tossing it into my tool bag because it can take a beating. The durability of the screen protector that comes with it is lacking. Overall the only complaint I have is that it did not come with a spudger for applying the screen protector.

Great craftsmanship and power
I love this tablet its great for my work environment as i have dropped it a few times on the concrete floor, i work in a factory. Its water proof ( i have tested that our ) with lots of memory and speed. The reason it got a 4 instead of 5 is that in America the only company that is compatible with for a plan is T mobile so i have to use my phone hot spot and that takes away some flexibility as i need both devices at all times . It is heavy because of the battery but it can operate the full 12-16hr shift wirh more than 30% battery life after movies, work and charging up a cell phone . If it was compatible with other carriers i would turn in my i phone and get the rugged phone phone as well,
