I have read reviews saying this tablet shows colors dull, has a short battery span and viewing is difficult at even a slight angle. True or false?

I had a 7" nook tablet and wanted to buy a larger tablet. I got this and was very disappointed. The screen was not clear at all so If you have had a nook,ipad or kindle..you are probably not going to be happy with this. I returned mine and spent the money and got an Ipad! I really did want to like this tablet,but was a no go.

It has one bad viewing angle. When holding it horizontally, with the volume button on top, when tilted back, it screen does get darker. But just flip it and it's fine. The battery life in not great. But it is not bad by any means. If I just read from kindle all day, up to 3 days. Seriously best tab you'll get for your money. But don't expect to spend 120, or whatever on this and start tryin to compare it to the surface pro 3... Once again, around 100.

The tablet quality is not great at all that is 100% true I would not buy this tablet it is also very slow for Internet as well

Color seems fine to me. Battery life seems appropriate for use. Screen like any tablet phone or device my mom has an expensive Kindle if you tip it you can't see it well. Internet has been good and streaming has been good as well. No lagging.

I never had the problem when I owned one but I was disappointed in the battery life when watching streaming HD movies. It only lasted 5 1/2 hours. That's the main reason I bought it was for watching movies while on a bus traveling cross country. I took it back. That was shortly after they came out, so the newer ones may be better. The picture was better than any tablet I've ever seen. If they had newer android OS or a windows OS the wouldn't have been able to keep them in stock.

It is a bit narrow but you can compensate for this easily.1. Make sure you have your colors, contrast and brightness calibrated via the menu. I had mine "red-shifted " when viewed at funny angles and as soon as I calibrated it to a balanced RGB setting it looked much more natural.2. Try setting it lower than you work and make use of the reclining stand. I work over the tablet most of the time anyway.

I had played with one at CES, and then spent about twenty minutes going through everything on it at Frys Electronics (their demo unit) yesterday. I ran the windows experience index thing and it scored low obviously, but everything was still a tenth of a point above my current laptop which is no slouch. I run everything on my current laptop, including high graphics needs such as Rhino, Keyshot 2, Photoshop, Etc. with no problems. My point being this tablet is still just i tiny bit more powerful so it should run about anything you throw at it fairly decently. Enough to get the work done for sure

This tablet sucks! I suggest returning it, I bought the tablet for my sin thinking it would be better then my next book. No it was very slow, screen just looked out of date. U might of over heated ur tablet.

I think this is a good choice as long as you're not using it professionally. I use mine as a hobby mostly and in that case the pros outweigh the cons. The pros are the size of the tablet, lowPrice and features while the BIG con here is the driver issues. However yesterday I got a new driver sent to me and it's working it well.

I've noticed no such imdedance of clarity. The screen is as crisp as you could ask for. I love mine.

If you bought it from AAA Market - 9m4s9pwz4ydzqd5@marketplace.amazon.com I have had several issues with my tablet, and they have been very helpful. As a matter of fact, I just had to send my tablet back to them for the second time. I think that tablet herself is not that good. Hope this helps.

I can help with the performance question. The tablet operates very efficiently. I own several different models of tablets and this one is one of my favorites. From using it for work to watching movies we have been very happy with the product.

Yes. Basically, think of it as a super super slow android tablet with a lot of lag and constant freezing. My advice, drop an extra $50 - $60, and get a refurbished Galaxy Note/Tab 7inch or a Nexus 7 inch tab, both of which will serve you much much better.

It's not a bad tablet; however, it's old already. I bought it sometime ago and I had to deal with the fact that it's not compatible with many popular apps nowadays. Mine stopped charging a few month ago and I assume it's because the circuit board the port it's attached to broke down. I would recommend a newer version.

The screen and video are comparable to most any other tablet on the market. Images are crisp and clear. Playback is adequate. I hope this helps.

There never is much orange on the displays I see, but when it is displayed, it looks fine to me. As for colors in general, I calibrate the screen with a Spyder 3 before doing color photos and I'm happy with the display and the resulting color print.

Hey Donald, I just replied to you on another one of these discussions and will do likewise on this one. Regarding the viewing angle, do any other 8 series owners think it... well... sucks? If I move so much as 5 degrees one way or another, the colors (particularly the blacks) start to fade. Wondering if this is one of the concessions for the 8 series' slim profile.

It's running android 4.04 and the screen is the big problem for me, not high resolution like the Google nexus 7 and 10 which are the ones I use the most. The screen looks grainy to me but I'm old with old eyes.
