This tablet is terrible I don't recommend it
Phone owned for more than a year

This tablet is not worth the money has a 5 year old screen of just 1024x600 which is terrible even for £100 you don't get HD can't play 3d games well but the sound quality is quite good for a 7inch tablet but still there are better tablets on the market for around this price

glad if was free
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I'm glad this P.O.S. was free. Other than that, its pretty much junk. 4G 3G or Wi-Fi, on a good signal I constantly have too restart the thing to browse. Boo...............................................​.
