The best tablet I have seen and used
Phone owned for more than a year

A nice and neat tablet that is perfect for the price, it is a reliable one, it always works, always available, with a good battery life, reliable and clean software, fast performance, nice colorful display, two front speakers, and the awesome built quality of htc. What do I need more, I have it for more than two years now and it is still working like new, thanks to Google vanilla Android software.

This device rocks
Phone owned for less than a year

This tablet is a solid Google tablet enough to blow the socks of off any tablet out there.
I love it the day I got it such a good tab even rivals the I pad air 2.
If you are an android fan you've got to get this tab.
