Android Pie Update For Tablets

Having struggled with Android tablets for years, it's awesome to see something that just works as expected!

Easy as pie, connect to power, either POE or wall, adopt in Unifi controller, update and that's it. Ubiquiti gear and the Unifi line is the best there is.

I want to start by saying I am normally not an apple fan. This product was purchased because it was slightly easier and smoother to lock down than android tablets. It sits on a wall and acts as a single app kiosk, and was therefore ideal. The price was in the same realm as android tablets too so it was hard to ignore. In conclusion, Apple once again made a boring, unassuming, but ultimately reliable and simple device. My abhorrence for them as a corporation not withstanding, this was the perfect product for my needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had to many Android tablets. They were sluggish, but useful with my Google account. This tablet is fast as I want it to be, the screen is beautiful, and the pen works like butter.

I use these for my Android tablets, Raspberry Pi, and music player. The large capacity and fast speeds make a big difference. I was using older and slower microSD cards for my Pi but when I used this one, boot time and performance increased noticeably. SanDisk storage has never disappointed me, whether used for computers or photo equipment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used several well know Android tablets and this on is by far one of the best ones that I have used. Having some of the cool hub features and a tablet all in one makes everything convenient. The tablet itself is very responsive and fast. Some of the other Android tablets tend to lag a little bit. The screen is nice and bright with a perfect size. Typical tablet features and customization! All in all, love this tablet and concept! I only have 2 issues.... 1) If I'm using it as a hub and someone pulls it off to use it. I'd have to hunt it down. 2) Give me more color options. Other than that, BUY ONE!

Ordering easy as pie!

The Genie One operates at about half or less of the volume (motor noise) of the original Genie. I had a VERY difficult time connecting to a brand new iPhone 12 to do the firmware upgrade and was about to give up and return it to B&H. I was able to update both of my 1st generation Genie Mini on the first try. The Syrp website suggests using an Android phone. I live in an all Apple household, and I was going to borrow a friend's Android, but tried one last thing. I have a 1st generation iPad Mini, and tried loading the newest version of the Syrp app onto it. That worked, so I tried connecting the Genie One, and voila, the iPad downloaded the update and loaded it onto the Genie One on the first try. There are some very nice upgrades to the app and device and all are compatible with the 1st generation Genie Minis that I have for pan/tilt. All in all a great system, but there were big hiccups on the firmware updates.

For the discounted price, it cannot be beat. Was able to update it to Android 11 without any problems was another plus. Very responsive; the camera takes very decent pictures; wifi reception was way better than my LG V20. The only problem is if you are coming from a bigger handset, this will feel very small and takes a while to get used to. The good thing is it fits any pocket and you don't guilty about replacing this phone after 2 years.

Makes recording with iPhone easy as pie!!
