Buyer Beware
Works OK when it doesn't freeze up. You also need to apply extra pressure when clicking on something. But most importantly Google play store does not have Netflix. This tablet is a good example of you get what you pay for. Update on this tablet. It has now put itself in reboot mode and is stuck there. I can turn it off but it goes right back to reboot mode. I would return it if I could wipe it clean but I can't. So instead I'm going to destroy it by melting it. My advice now is to stay away from this P.O.S.

You get what you pay for
Touch screen locks up ALL THE TIME. I have bought a few nextbook products, and this one is by far the worst. Almost as bad as the RCA tablet that it replaced. Very disappointed.

A Great Tablet If You Can Overlook the Flaws
The media could not be loaded. Having only used this tablet for almost a week now I must say I like it so far.Pros:- 8 inch IPS display watching videos in HD- Plays non highend games pretty well- Android 6.0 Marshmallow with little bloatware (Extra apps that can be deleted)Cons:- Gets warm on one side, but it's normal with many cheap tablets. (Likely a bad heat sink where the CPU is located)- Screen rarely gets unresponsive, but I also noticed that I need to press harder on the display too sometimes- High End Games Won't Load (i.e. Injustice 2)This is a quick rundown, you can watch the video if you want to find out more, but so far I recommend this!

Not a 5⭐ tablet but a 5⭐ purchase.
So ill lay the land for y'all, this tablet has only 1Gb of ram and killer processors. The ram hold it back on speed alot let's just say only have one thing open at a time this device cannot multitask but can run any none high end app no problem.No GPS or enough power for games like Pokemon go.Has some trouble with demanding apps like Snapchat but can get it done with a little patients.-if it starts to lag and slow close everything-no gps-underpowered for demanding apps, but can play most games nicely.Now to why it's 5 stars it has a great screen amazing battery and can do almost all you need it to do just not fast or smooth all the time. I got it to sub for my phone while it was getting fixed and saved alot of money over a temp phone since it's only $32. I will use it when I get my phone back for sure.Great for Netflix great for most games great for alot of nice things but surfing can get slow and need to close things and keep ram clear. One app at a time and some lag is it's only downfall and for $32 it stacks up close to most around $100+ tabs.If you are on a budget and need a tablet bad then YES.if you won't be going crazy and doing g alot of use and heavy tablet stuff with it just kinda want a bigger version of your phone stuff then YES.If you want a reliable tablet that can do smooth multitasking and heavy surfing then you are in the wrong section filter tablets to $300+ for a nice one.

It's ok...but has problems to be aware of
The day I got this tablet I had problems with it freezing crashing on me completely unresponsive when running applications (especially video games). I discovered the problem is most likely the low "RAM" from the testing I done to figure out why the tablet is acting up so bad. The solution is: when playing games the best thing to do is disable the WiFi. THIS SOLVES THE PROBLEM! Another thing you can do is go to the Play Store settings and disable auto updates. Some games require a internet connection so this option I just gave is probably best to do. The first game I tried playing when I got the tablet was Dead Effect 2 and it kept crashing over and over again. Soon as I disabled WiFi the game actually started up and I was able to play it. I also had issues with Mortal Kombat X crashing as well but now I'm able to play it. (Takes a long time to load though) I hope as many people as possible that decides to buy this tablet definitely take my advice because you will be happy with the outcome of the better performance.The 1 problem I can't solve is the screen brightness constantly dimming when the tablet gets warm to keep it from overheating I think...(the tablet does get very hot sometimes, "BE AWARE") it's very annoying and because of how hot it gets sometimes I don't think I would give this tablet to a child.

Worst POS tablet ever!
Its lucky I cant go below 1 star cause this is the worst tablet ever. When I received it the screen was glitching bad like it had been dropped. Most of the button didnt even work. I couldnt download an app and it froze when I tried to open anything! Please dont buy this tablet!

Very happy with device - but beware of possible cheap/sub par hardware issues.
Very happy with device. It plays all the games I play perfectly for hours on end. I can watch and stream Netflix and Youtube. I can steam and manage my media collection from NAS at home. I've had no over heating issues. The machine has only 1gb of ram, so it is not the greatest multi-tasker in the world. It launches apps quickly and the battery last for hours and hours...over 5 during continuous use. This device is a steal at the $30 range.Update...after about a month or so the sd card reader failed. It will not read any sd card brand or capacity I have tried. Each card tests fine in other devices. This is not a deal breaker for me, but it is a serious issue.
