Android Tablet Apps 2021

Bought new in June 2021. I was able to go 12 days between charges. Updated to Android 12 without issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a Pixel 7 Pro owner, I was excited when Google announced a tablet. Running Android 13, the Pixel Tablet feels very familiar, so getting up and running took no time at all. Well, it took time for my accounts to transfer over, but that took almost no effort. Overall, I have been pleased with the performance for my needs. Apps load quickly and navigating the tablet and switching apps is sufficiently speedy. Browsing the web, watching videos, listening to music, making video calls, and using miscellaneous other apps all work well. I don't play games, so I cannot comment on how smoothly they run. The screen is big, bright, and crisp, as expected. The tablet's rounded edges make it comfortable to hold. On its own, the Pixel is a nice tablet for using around the house, or on the go, but what makes it really stand apart from other tablets I have used is the dock. When connected to the dock, with its built-in speakers, the tablet sounds way better than any other tablet I have used. It is great for listening to music or watching movies. Because the dock holds the tablet upright, it works very well for watching video content or making video calls. As I mentioned before, I use the tablet primarily around the house for general usage, and it is perfect for that. While I can see using Google Docs on it, I did not get the Pixel Tablet as a laptop replacement. I am sure I will use it for productivity from time to time, but that is far from my primary use. I love my Pixel phone, but having the larger screen and dock, and the much improved sound that comes with it, make it my preferred device while at home.

I bought this television for its great features and it’s android ready apps. I’m not disappointed and would buy it again.

After my 2'nd Samsung Tablet (in 5 years) broke, I decided to give Apple a try. This is my first apple product. I've always been a windows (pc) and Android ( tablet/phone) user, so when I needed a new tablet, I figured I'd give apple a try. $329.00 is cheap to try the apple eco system.... IOS seems a bit more restrictive than Android (maybe that's a learning curve ?)... but, so far, I am very impressed. From a user interface/usability standpoint, it is much more enjoyable to use than my Samsung (Android) tablet, albeit the Samsung was 3 years old. Very seemless integration with my Microsoft One Drive Cloud storage/MS office products. Got the apple pencil as well.... Why not ! I'll probably always stay with Windows OS for a pc, but may take a bite of the apple when I get a new pbone...

Use it with an android app to control my photos using smartphone or android tablet

Works perfectly! Setting up my Android tablet and iPhone was quick and easy!

Amazing AI upscaling Fast box Some android apps cannot be loaded properly and needs to be sideloaded (android tv limitation).

The highlights are the refresh speed and Android system. You can really run almost any Android app on this, and the eink display is beautiful Wishes. It comes with very few apps installed so you have to build your own baseline. Makes for a fairly boring out of box experience.

I have used the Amazon Fire Stick, Matricom G-Box Q and Roku 3 for a while. I had been thinking about getting the NVidia Shield TV for a while and finally decided to get it when the new version with Amazon and the smaller footprint was released. I have played with it for about 2 weeks and I have to say that this is the most powerful box I have used as far as Android TV is concerned. I have SlingTV, YouTube, Amazon Video, Plex and Kodi apps that I use most often. I do have a 32GB usb stick connected to save apps and data there since I have the 16GB model. That works but apps do take a little longer to start from the USB. I did install a few games that the kids enjoy playing and they work great. Some games do crash every now and then such as Hungry Shark but not all. The included remote and came controller are easy to use and get used to. This box makes using Android TV enjoyable whereas others promise performance that diminishes quickly over time. I would highly recommend this box to anyone who doesn't mind spending $200 and values performance and quality of cost. This box replaced a Roku, G-Box and Chromecast for me and I don't have to buy a separate gaming console for the kids, at least for a little while.

I purchased it to add a mouse feature to an android tablet. It connected right away and works great.
