I've had this tablet for over the a year, great android tablet for streaming and surfing. Install "launcher hijack" and "nova launcher" to get rid of the shitty Amazon launcher and you got yourself a pretty good android tablet for under $80.

Does anyone know if the Amazon appstore has WeChat?
Don't want to go through the hassle of side loading APK every time to update it.

Want to get this for my mom to replace her aging iPad 2.

Install launcher hijack and nova launcher then either install apps via APKs or install Aptoide app store , has the most popular play store apps without having to go through the hassles farting around with various Google services to get the Play store working.

Yes, takes microSD so can be used to load vids/cartoons for long trips.

Call customer service and cry over with some service or return issue and ask for some credit to be used towards next purchase.. they easily add to your account.. it says as ‘courte Credit “. I’ll post my payment page fyi in sometime here

Thanks for posting this. I bought one when it was $74.99 last month and contacted customer service to get a $10 credit.

Found a video to increase speed on this...I would recommend before installing Play Store change this setting to speed up the Tab

Here's the main ones:

480p = SD
720p = HD
1080p = FHD
1440p = QHD
2160p = UHD / 4k

Based off 16:9 so 800p is still considered HD.
