is this more like a android phone or android tablet? Isn't it some app or games are (better) for the bigger screen tablet version?

It's really like neither. Tablets and phones have have accelerometers, gps, multitouch interfaces, cameras, etc. One of the reasons this device (and all mini pc's) is so cheap is because it lacks those components. Many games and apps rely on these, and so a game like fruit ninja or an app like skype won't really do much. This device is ideal for turning a tv in to a computer with limited power. It's ideal for retro-gaming with nintendo emulators and the like, but make sure the device you select has adequate usb support for game controllers. It's also quite handy for digital media, web browsing, and simple stupid stuff like weather apps.

Honestly, I was disappointed with this tablet. It is super laggy, crashes a lot, and the way it works, is odd. As to if it works for that, I an unsure

Yes, the size of the screen is actually a bit bigger. But once you setup your dimensions for your drawing program like Manga Studio or Photoshop it is just like drawing on paper. It is an amazing device and I love it.

No, this version doesn't run Android, it's got all the rest of the applications as mentioned. I remember, I saw another which really ran Android, its cost was higher.

It has both, but the tablet part will only have android. When you have it attached to the keyboard it has both

Not that I was aware of.There isn't really a way to play a game on here. I imagine its only the touch screen ereaders that would allow you to play games on them because this only has directional buttons to move text,change a movie or show, or turn the page,etc....I was never able to find a way to upload a game on to mine(you can only upload stuff onto this one,it doesn't have a connection to the internet to download things onto it.

Not sure if the app you are looking for is on this tablet, but there are about 250 apps for games with battle. I really enjoy using this tablet. Hope this helps.

As mentioned in my review, this device does not include Google Play. There is more than one video tutorial explaining how to get access to it, but I couldn't figure it out. I think I have the files on the tablet, but can't understand what to do with them! All of my downloaded apps came from Amazon.

There are two types. 1- Windows edition- 100% TABLET. 2- Android edition- 50% TABLET. Personally i recomend for you a windows education, because it's a tablet.

Google Play has the app, so I would say, yeah. I used the iPad version - wasn't very reliable, kept losing the wifi between the 2 devices so I stopped using it.

If you like Android gaming or emulation it's still worth it. I can use the streaming feature, but I personally use it to play Android and emulated games more than streaming from my PC.

Coby uses it's own affiliated store (SlideME). It's good, but it's not nearly as big as Google play.it is good enough though for the basics, and is growing. The advantage is that anything there will work with the Kyros. You can also download from "private company" sites and install manually. It cannot download from any other location without hacking the tablet.

No it is android. I have android phones and tablet but I am having a difficult time with this operating system. It is different. It will not download same apps as phone and tablet. It runs off of android 4.0.4 os. It will not accept adobe. Its a pain!

No..it is not an Android phone. It barely accesses the web. For me, not a single web page loaded, so I decided not to pay for data once I realized how slow it loads. I now have a Samsung Galaxy S5. I was truly left behind with the LG phone, and never realized how stuck I was. Google play is for Android phones and none are pay as you go, unless for maybe Metro. I do not know.

yes it is like an ipad except Android system. Email videos, etc. I like my Cinepad.

It doesn't on my android tablet.In looking for and finding an app that would supposedly do the trick with this it turned out that the version of android on my tablet would not accommodate it.I don't, off the top of my head, recall the name of that app.Do a google search. That's what I did.
