    This tablet first appeared on Kopyuteks a month earlier .

    Pros and cons of the device


    pros


    • Android operating system (for connoisseurs);
    • Many applications available through the Android Market;
    • The ability to expand memory using a mini-SD slot;
    • Wireless access, both via WiFi and via 3G networks;
    • Nice price (£ 299.99 without delivery from the UK).

    Minuses


    • No internal memory (mini-SD only);
    • There is no real multitasking;
    • Relatively low screen resolution
    • Weak processor;
    • Missing GPS.


    Conclusion


    Thus, we have a rather interesting device at a reasonable price, even taking into account delivery and customs clearance. The undoubted advantages in the form of mini-SD, 3G, bluetooth and the lack of the need to install iTunes on a working computer will be decisive for many when choosing their first “tablet”. However, the lack of GPS for a number of buyers (including for me) will turn out to be a critical factor, pushing away from the generally remarkable Huawei S7 Android Tablet.
