It's OK Tablets in Computers & Tablets

I bought this product because of the price, but now I regret not spending a few bucks more on a better device. It's "good" but not great. The touchscreen tends to be a bit buggy, sometimes unresponsive to touch and sometimes over-responsive. Games tend to be sluggish, and the touchscreen that's "missing" on some of them is frustrating. Also, the front camera (which I wanted to use with Skype) only lasted a few days. After that, the error message "Cannot connect to the camera” appeared every time you tried to activate it. Factory reset did not fix the problem. I'm currently awaiting a response from Coby Tech Support, but after searching the web I've found this to be a fairly common complaint. Also, I would say that GetJar is completely useless. Installing the Revain App Store gives you access to a fair number of apps, but the lack of Google Play makes this device far less desirable. If I had to do it again I would wait until I could afford a better device. I don't feel this meets my needs or expectations.
