would it be a good tablet for seniors?

This tablet is terrible. The screen is hard to see, battery life is 1 hour MAX. The reviews are fake. You've been warned.

The manual that comes with it is pretty small & basic... I don't think it'd help you much. BUT, you'll have access to all of the Internet with it, and Google is great at answering questions (= It's really not a terribly complicated tablet though.

Hello. I am not sure what you would want him to be able to do, but some things that might interest him is that he can use the Tablet for streaming Netflix, downloading games to play, Skyping with you (if his parents set him up first,) etc. Thank you

This tablet is junk... And to answer your question, yes, this is one of many issues with it. It is very slow. Got for my son for Christmas, and he hasn't even really been able to use it. Price was good, but definitely worth the money to buy a better one.

Depends on what your perspective of what "older" means.It's got a pretty decent amount of space for a tablet and the screen is HD,not the original "paper" look with the backlight.

Absolutely. Those are basic functions for a tablet and they're things all decent tablets do very well. The Asus Memo does an excellent job with videos and games.Barry

Probably but you really wouldn't gain much performance. I'd suggest getting an iPad 2(they're relatively cheap) or the new asus laptops. N150 was slow then and it is certainly lacking in speed now compared to other, better offerings

Yes it is a perfect tablet for your mother. Although I would recommend buying a MicroSD card to go with it as it has little memory for music. But it is a great internet tablet for facebook and email and it is extremely hard to break. I even did a 3 story drop test and the screen wasn't broken.

You are welcome. This is a great tablet for the money. I brought it for my grandson at Christmas and he is really enjoying it.

It should be fine. My 5 year old plays Angry birds and a few other games on mine occasionally. One thing I noticed is that the tablet responds slowly when it's on wireless and trying to do auto syncs or updates. When I turned off the options and began syncing my apps on demand, it worked much better. I haven't tried it with games that really test the orientation sensors, but I think it'll be fine. I would recommend it at under $90. So far I've been happy with it. Hope this helps.

Yes I would, depending on how it will b used. You can add memory to it for book, picture music & movie files , so is better than a kindle for OFFLINE use. If it will b used for ONLINE use mostly, my daughter (23) said it runs slow. So if your 8 year old is an online gamer, might want to keep looking.

I believe it is worth the money. If you like the Apple operating system get an I-pad. If you like the Windows environment, you probably can't do any better than this tablet. It is very powerful and I have had no issues.

No it daesn't! In fact, ours died a long time ago. Totally cheap tablet. Better to pony up 80 bucks more and get a good one.

It is a tablet; I bought one for my grandson six years and really exceeded my expectations, maybe the housing is somewhat fragile but functioning Android operating system and does it well versatile for games and other applications.

I'm not entirely sure this device is still compatible anymore. You're better off exploring economy tablets or iPods for this sort of thing.

It depends on what you are using it for. I for gaming I would have to say no. Programming possibly. Check with you application's system requirements first. For basic MS office yes but it is slow. Surfing the Web is slow too. This was my solution to a more expensive tablet because of it's small size. I also have two much faster computers.
