i love it, and please tell me if i screwed up this review. Its my first time.

imadolphin has owned it for more than one year before publishing this review

I have owned my ellipsis for two years and it has recently been having major problems. The icons dissapear, the internet connection is sloppy, and the camera sucks. But the ellipsis 7 is easier to control than anything else ive used, and it runs the games i play flawlessly. I can swap between apps with speed and ease.

The problem child...

Jzaiger has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

Where do I even begin on this device... The fact of the matter is that it is no high end, nor top-shelf tablet/device. I ran a simple test. I got three of the Ellipsis 7's from Verizon Wireless, and gave two to my friends and one for myself; my friends had no idea about the brand, specs, or past reviews or opinions. Overall, 2 out of 3 people reporting verifiable problems ranging from battery capacity loss, overheating, and broken or malfunctioning antennas. One of the big problems I had was my Ellipsis would use data even when on WiFi, and would eat thru it. Even with mobile data off, it still used it. Conclusion: If you have the funds, get an iPad, there is a reason this device is free with new contract. all in all 6/10

Build quality 7/10 Built like a normal average-grade tablet, nevertheless, its no iPad

Reception 6/10 Only gets 4G LTE, meaning if you are in a 2G zone or 3G only you will have no service until you return to a 4G LTE zone.

Call quality 6/10 Skype and video chats are good, but the camera is horrible.

Internet 8/10

Multimedia 5/10 Sometimes the video player will fast forward and play media too fast to even recognize.

Camera 4/10 Mediocre at best camera, and the front facing camera is even worse..

UI speed 6/10 Again, fairly average

Everyday usage 7/10 Its average to use, nothing extraordinary about it..

Text input 6/10 key board is sort of irritating to use due to its size and key spacing.

Display 7/10 Not a horrble screen, but again its not Super AMOLD display or even near Retina Display.

Battery 5/10 Battery life is comical for a 4000mAh battery.

Pros

• decent build quality
• 2 cameras
• 4G LTE ready
• X-LTE ready
• Fast internet when, and if, it has service

Cons

• no flash
• no auto-focus
• VERY low resolution front camera
• horrible main camera
• fairly average screen, could do better
• Galling battery life
• Problem prone
