No - you will still have to connect it to a computer (PC or Mac) that has application software like Microsoft Office Reader or Powerpoint.

I didn't expect it to, but it appears that it does. I am able to open all office documents (power point, excel, word, etc.) with no warnings or alerts to buy any product. Maybe it's only a trial version but I've had this computer for 6 months now and Office is still working for me. Qualifier: I did not buy my computer from Amazon, but Newegg.

Hi. This device came with QuickOffice software, or you can install it free from from Google Play. With QuickOffice you can open Word documents and read/edit it on the tablet. Regards

It does not support PPT or Doc. The "work around" is to save as a JPEG because it can read JPEG files.

It isn't a complete substitute in that even thought it will open and edit Office files, there will be occasional incompatibility. It does have the functionality of Office and some nuances that many find to be big advantages, such as easily being able to "reveal codes" to see why a document is behaving the way it is. That is something that has been invaluable when formatting is an issue. I find I can do things with WP I just can't get Office to do.

No, it works wirelessly with your computer. Just plug in the wireless USB that comes with the remote into your computer USB port and it works instantaly in advancing your PowerPoint slides.

Yes it both reads and writes. It is a great device, especially if you have only a few usb ports. I have been enjoying it since I bought mine, and it has been a great productivity booster

Not really. It reads usb drive. Maybe that's what's sort of smart about it.

It comes with some software but it does not come with Office. I had to buy that separately. what kind of software are you looking for?

Unless there is a special offer running it doesn't come with it...But since it's full Windwos 8 you can load any version of Office to it. You will need to get a micro USB adapter though if you want to use an external CD drive if you want to load from media.

It does have Microsoft office installed. However was very disappointed how slow it is. Not using it at all right now. Wish I could return it.

Thats's a good question, mine's don't have Microsoft office or a web cam, I use my other laptop for that, however it's a great laptop it streams like a breeze and very functional for my printer and other devices it has a disc drive, I didn't pay a lot for mine under 100 so don't over pay for it, make sure seller offers office on it and guarantees it if that's what you want, there are plenty who are selling this laptop.

It has Window 8 on it. No Word or Excel or PowerPoint. We put Movie Maker on it (free download from Microsoft). Kids use mostly for surfing internet.

Yes! It has microsoft word, office, and powerpoint. I haven't started school yet so I havent been able to experiment with everything but when i have typed and stuff it was just like using my laptop.
