- Good points:
-
The thing which attracted me to this tablet in particular was the connectivity via the numerous ports. The speech recognition is amazingly accurate! For some users the weight may be an issue but personally I found it adds to the solid feel. Battery is very good :standby us amazing even with apps still running in the background. I mostly type using 'TouchPal' app Swype method of text input.
- Bad points:
- Mmm...not yet.
