The problem with this device is that there are not too many accessories (eg. a decent case). I bought a cheap one, it is clunky, but seems to do its job.

I added a total of three users to this device, and each gets to customize it without affecting other users. This is important for me, so my personal information is not accessible to other users, and hopefully you can control what apps my young kids play. JellyBean 4.2.2 Andrioid version is pre-installed, and dont expect to get 4.4 (kitkat) any time soon. HP is slow in pushing these. No wonder they are loosing money.

Note: This does NOT come with a headphone, but that is not a big issue for me.

T-mobile customer service sucked big time, they had not clue about this free offer. On the day I received the tablet, I was playing with the settings and got locked out of the device “SIM disabled. PUK lock required to unlock” or something similar message came up. Telephone support was useless, they directed me to go to store. Store person wanted me to buy a one month data plan so she could activate my tablet with T-mobile. After back and forth, I was able to get a new SIM card, as the SIM itself was locked out. I inserted the new SIM, and tablet started to guide me through the activation process with T-mobile. T-mobile did not ask me for a credit card, sweet! Next day, the tablet said “NO service” and I have live in this area for many years, and I know there is service here. I called T-mobile and once again was disappointed with C. The customer service tried to tell me that I am in a dead spot but looking at the service map online. However, over the last 10 days, I have not had that problem again, even during severe weather.

For the money I paid, $130, it is a no brainer especially when you add the 200 MB/mo free data. I added SQUARE Trade warranty, which I had to use on my Kindle Fire, and they are excellent.

I am adding a 32GB microSD card for movies on the go. Have yet to try Skype, which will be one of the reasons I bough. The camera quality is acceptable to me, albeit it is a bit lower resolution. Again, I look at the price I paid, and so can’t complain much. Battery appears to hold well, will find out more when I take it for a road trip.

The GPS is very unreliable, after being off by several hundred feet. Forget about using it for driving navigation, it often has you’re on the wrong street. I also got it to use for geocaching but again it’s extremely unreliable.

The charger is often unreliable and doesn’t always make a connection or comes loose. For some reason in Europe it was much less reliable than in the United States although it is supposed to support 220 volts.

When I first got it it was constantly rebooting but a factory reset mostly fixed that.

For the price I suppose it’s an OK deal, where else are you going to get free 4G at this cost?However device is overall not very good.

The performance of this tablet is pretty upsetting, it feels like a 2007 device being used in 2014 – It does let you surf the web and do some BASIC things and that’s about it. If you want to anything more complex than that (but still normal stuff for any other tablet/smartphone):
-Apps crash
-Navigation/usability becomes a nightmare
-Battery drains much faster
-Voice commands just don’t work

The tablet’s design is great, feels like a pricier one and its weight is just ideal.

In summary, go for it if you only need it to surf the web or check your emails on the go. Don’t buy it if it will become your main device, you won’t regret buying it (it only costs $100) but you’ll regret you lost 10 minutes of your time trying to do the simplest of tasks.

This is my first Android device, but a friend says that his Samsung phone (on Android) ALSO dims a little right after you go to the webpage or App that you want to view.Still learning the Android system after years on Apple iOS but able to maneuver about 90% as proficiently after a couple of days.Battery life is acceptable but not great.

Slightly disappointed in T-Mobile data coverage.It is not as good in my (NE Ohio) area when compared to Verizon.BUT when you are in T-Mobile data coverage area, you can quickly & easily setup a hotspot on this device for friends to use with their WiFi devices.

I would definitely recommend this purchase to friends.
