Does this come with WiFi? What is the benefit of this versus a Tablet other than size? (Yes I am a newbie) Thanks

The advantage of this over a table and how easy it is to take notes. I also have an iPad Air, and this Chromebook is way easier for taking notes or writing a paper or report. The keyboard rocks.

This does not have built -in wifi, but I purchased a wi-fi adapter & it works great with it ... you can also use an ethernet cable, but that wasn't an option for me.

No, this device does not have built in WiFi. Though, you can connect it to any wireless router - which will provide better signal than a built in device.

My question as well. I would be all over this one even without Bluetooth or the backlit keyboard if there were more reviews. Now there is a second review but it's for the guy's client, and contributes nothing. I want to hear feedback about the wifi card's connectivity issues, if any.

Tammy, You can use it for any tablet or computer with wifi. I use it with my tablet. You will have to connect it to your wireless network. It is a good wifi booster. Hope this helps.

Honestly, no. This thing never stays connected to wifi, despite the fact that we have a wifi hookup in our house. It's constantly saying the connection is too weak, so actually downloading anything is next to impossible. I would not recommend this tablet.

This is a smart tablet, it has the slot for sim card, u can use it as a cell phone with your card, u can also throw away the sim card if you don't like it any more, you can switch to WiFi right away. The size so portable, that you carry it easily, not like a text book.

Negative to both. It has no wi-fi but you can connect through a USB cable to your computer and using a program do some very interesting things (install new apps/games, track your child's development, etc.). There is no way to expand the memory either. If I ran out of space, I could delete unused apps or simply buy cartridges for the same price.

Yes it comes with wifi As for apps they are built in. I do not if there are phone apps.

Yes, It has built in wifi. Works as well as my desktop or laptop. It comes with two internet browsers (Google and Chrome), you can add Firefox and more. One drawback, you can not download anything from google play store. Plenty of apps available from elsewhere, including the Amazon app store.

WiFi for sure. Not sure if it has built in 4G, but you could add 4G like you would on a laptop through USB. The tablet is just a laptop with no keyboard running windows 8.

I have shopped for tablets in many super stores and electronics stores and this little tablet is a great starter tablet. It works just like the expensive ones that just are just wifi. Sure there is a little delay when too many programs are running at the same time, but it's worth it for the price difference. I am recommending the Nextbook tablet to my friends. p.s. the nextbook web sites and the manual are useless. Just don't bother with them. It's simple enough to figure it out in a few minutes. Enjoy downloading all the apps too from Google Play.

It works fine with wifi, as do almost all tablets. The reason to get a data plan is to access the internet when not within range of your wifi.

The one my son has is the Galaxy Tab 3 7inch, but it is Wi-Fi only. You may have the 8inch tablet, but I am not sure if there is size different between the Wi-Fi and the WAN(integrated internet service)...

This is a basic tablet..... it is WIFI ready, just connect it by putting in your secured WIFI passwordI bought a 16gb Microsd Transflash Card and moved most APPS from the tablet to the card. I have only tried the front camera .... it was not the best quality, but doable for SKYPE if you are in very bright lighted room did not try the back camera for picture taking. This tablet was bought for a person who is not Tech Savvy and will basically only need it for emails, Facebook, LinkedIn , Internet, and youtube video and Netflix movies

The tablet does not work at all. There's no way to check if the WIFI works. I want to return tablet and get a refund. I called Amazon and they ask me to call get in touch with you first. So far I have not gotten any reply to my request for technical support
