3.0 out of 5 stars Well Done - Mostly! - Update - Finding Hardware issues., January 7, 2011
By 
David M (Minnesota United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ViewSonic ViewPad 7 7-Inch Android 2.2 Tablet - Black (Wifi & Unlocked 3G) (Electronics)
OK I received my VPad7 yesterday afternoon, and so far I'm MOSTLY Happy!
It's zippy, but I do wish they had put in a 1Ghz processor. Will probably force it out of a Honeycomb Upgrade.
I can not get Adobe Flash to install, but so far I haven't found that to be an issue on the web.

Viewing Angels not a problem, Battery life - We'll see after it's conditioned but so far I'd estimate 4-8hrs depending on activities.
Tested Transformers 720p HD and not one flicker
Sound from it's little speakers Impressive!
Dropped my T-Mobile SIM in and BOOM instant Big Phone :D The Speed only shows Edge, but I'm in a funky location.
Phone quality - Just got off a 1 hour conference call using both the speakerphone option and the plugin headset. No complaints from anyone. I heard the other end just fine.
Reception signal is actually BETTER with this than with my actual T-Mobile HD2 phone.
Highly Recommend getting a MicroUSB card as the internal memory is minimal. Get the more expensive FAST card for better performance.
Streaming music, sounds Great just as nice as an MP3.
GPS works like a champ!
Angry birds works great :D

My only other Gripe is the keyboard - It functions fine, but I'd like to use the Market's Better Keyboard, which after installed and enabled - doesn't swap out for the swype keyboard that is standard.

I may look into the "rooting" options that people have done with it's big brother, but so far it's handsomely accomplished everything I've tasked it with!

If you're looking for a Bigger Screen Smartphone, and don't want to pay that extra Data Fee that the carriers are forcing on us, this is CURRENTLY your best option! and with that extra Data Fee you can't use it's competitors (Galaxy Tab for example) as a phone, even though they have the capability.

If I have luck with rooting and installing any custom ROM, I'll post my results. It's not a top priority ATM as it's satisfactory as it is.
TO Viewsonic - Get is certified for Flash, and unlock it so I can use whatever virtual keyboard I want and you'd get 5 stars!!

Update: 5/30 OK after using it awhile I've come up with two major flaws - this may be MY actual device, or an actual design flaw - 1) Charging has become a game - I have to Cinch the Power cord behind the Tablet using something to Hold it in place back there then maneuver the USB plug just right or it won't charge. 2)the "Buzzer" now goes off if you hold the the Tablet too tight or if its in my computer bag; and won't stop until you slap it. So it now sits in a cradle, it functions fine and I still use it, but not outside of my home office.... I should have returned/exchanged it, but I had such problems getting basic information from Viewsonics' Customer Service, I just re purposed it and got the XOOM which I LOVE 110%. Hopefully no one else has had this issue, if not for that I'd Still give it 4 Stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice...but needs more work, January 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ViewSonic ViewPad 7 7-Inch Android 2.2 Tablet - Black (Wifi & Unlocked 3G) (Electronics)
Update(Sept 21, 2011): The Viewpad7 ROCKS! I just got back last week from Mexico and used my Vpad7 as both a Phone and Internet Device. Picked up a TelCel SIM Card and it was up and running. Traveled from Merida down to Cuidad del Carmen and had 3G signal most of the way. Mostly did texting in Mexico and back to the USA without any problems. Checked my Yahoo Email Account without issues. Reserved a hotel room in Campeche using KAYAK.com without issues. Updated FB with pictures and comments on the fly. I use it at home reqularly on the Home WiFi and where Free WiFi is available.

There were a couple of issues with Android trying to type and it would start adding characters on it's own so some texting got to be annoying. I haven't been able to link up with my T-Mobile Blackberry via BT using PDAnet and I've only got PDAnet working via BT when I had a Moto Cliq one time. I've been hit and miss on some Movies I've setup using FabDVD where some run and others don't. I think it's FabDVD cuz I tested the same files on an Acer A500 with Honeycomb and had some issues there as well.

Overall, still glad I made the purchase even with the annoyances. Currently watching for the US release of Acer A101 which is another 7-inch Tablet with 3G but has Honeycomb. I'll still keep and use Vpad7, especially since I want to test its Wi-Fi Sharing abilities the next time I'm out of the US. If you want a 7-inch Tablet with lots of Marketplace Apps then get this tablet...I checked out the Acer A500 and there are very few Apps available for Honeycomb right now.

Overview: I place the Viewpad7 above the iPad for the simple reason that it has these features...is more portable, has dual cameras, has MicroSDHC port and a SIM Port. The Samsung Tab shows up on paper with a higher resolution, but I would have expected the Tab to have an AMOLED screen for that price. The 1GHz processor on the Tab is definitely nice, but not a deal-breaker. I do have a problem with Samsung hobbling it's phone features for the premium price, even if it is subsidized by the Carrier. Samsung Tab, Viewpad7 and iPad are the only real choices if you want more features than an eBook Reader can provide.

External: I definitely like the portability of the Viewpad7 which fits in your jeans back pocket even if in the Leatherette Case. The Case could use an SD Card, Credit Card and SIM Card pocket...but that's a personal preference. The fit and finish are clean but they should have placed the Mini-USB/Charge Port and Headset Port on the side so that you could connect to them even when the unit is sitting on the Case in Easel Mode. The speakers are pretty loud and you'll get people looking your way if you're playing 'Video Poker - Jacks or Better'. Easy access at the top of the unit to the MicroSDHC and SIM ports are a real plus. Sure would be nice if this thing had an additional full-size/full-service USB2.0 port given the thickness.

Wireless Functionality: Popped in a T-Mobile SIM with 3G Internet and was able to make calls with no problems. You can use it as a Hub for making Conference Calls and a BT Headset works well. I was only able to get EDGE Internet, which was extremely slow. I could load up the WSJ website to read articles, but anything that used even a mildly graphics laden website just wasn't going to happen. A little research and I found that T-Mobile uses UMTS1700(upload) and UMTS2100(download) for 3G and this unit only has UMTS850/1900/2100. 90% of the world runs 3G Internet on UMTS2100 where it's available. The phone is World GSM ready with 850/900/1800/1900, but I won't get to test this out until mid-year from Mexico and hopefully Thailand after that. As far as 3G, it should work in Mexico with TelCel as long as they aren't using the mini-SIM. If you have a reliable Wi-Fi signal, the internet pops along pretty well. I was able to run YouTube clips with no issues. Flash 10.1 isn't available yet, but I hear it is in the works. I tried hooking up a Palm Folding Keyboard and Interlink Mouse via Blue-tooth with no success...it doesn't play well with Pairing Codes that aren't fixed.

Android OS 2.2 - This is where I think the unit needs more work. Programs like Picture Gallery would 'Hang-Up' once in awhile and I'd have to hit the 'Return' to take a step back to get it going again. Transferring pictures from my PC was kind of hit and miss with some having to be reloaded in order to be viewable. The Gallery was nice when it worked properly, adjusting resolution of pictures automatically and allowing you to re-orient. 'Video Poker' would lock-up and I'd have to exit and restart. I'm still trying to figure out how to get imported music and video to work. The User Guide, which doesn't ship with the unit and is available from the Viewsonic Website, is pretty useless at best. Transfers don't work as simple as 'drag-n-drop' like on my Android 2.2 phone. This unit... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars IGNORE BAD REVIEWS, February 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: ViewSonic ViewPad 7 7-Inch Android 2.2 Tablet - Black (Wifi & Unlocked 3G) (Electronics)
This tablet is great for whatever you could possibly want to use a tablet for.

All the tech websites are setting super high expectations, and many of the negatives i read about before buying this device turned out to not be the case at all.

Youtube works great, lack of flash not a problem because browsers like skyfire convert flash into html5 anyway.

Everything is smooth, apps from the android market work great.

I thought I couldnt install much without the memory card. My memory card comes in tomorrow and I've already installed like all the apps i want. im sure ill find more.

Really really a great device, good for the price.

Free SIM card is a great feature, especially for someone like me who is overseas a lot.

If you don't want to pay too much, and don't want a data plan, BUY THIS TABLET.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not great, not bad. Don't depend on it as your primary mobile device., January 20, 2011
This review is from: Sylvania SYNET7LP 7-Inch Mini Tablet (Black) (Personal Computers)
I like this tablet, and I keep it on my night stand for evening web surfing before I go to bed. Works great for casual use like that. I find that using the stylus is not necessary and do everything with the tips of my fingernails/thumbnails. No finger touches work, however, but I quickly got used to the method I now use.

But, when I go out, I still take my netbook. This device lets me keep the netbook downstairs where I use it most and still browse when I'm in bed without lugging anything around.

There's a good assortment of apps on it, plus a software installer (package manager, for those familiar with Linux) that comes with pre-installed. Limited apps of questionable quality, for the most part. Hint: Download Opera, and use the App Store built into that. Most of the apps are free, there's a much better selection, and heck, Opera is the browser to use anyway.

No Flash, as another user mentioned, but you can watch online videos with the included Skyfire browser, which can pull embedded video and play it in a new window. Works pretty slick, if a bit annoying to switch back and forth between it and other browsers.

There's also a Youtube app, which is handy. Beware that video really sucks the battery, which is OK for browsing (can last several hours), but runs down quickly with video.

Screen rotates. Keyboard works OK, but the enter key doesn't always work correctly, resulting in extra letters added to what you type.

Yes, it requires a microSD card if you want to install anything. Kinda chintzy, and really means that to make the tablet usable, you'll have to make an extra investment, but considering you can find this thing for around 0, it isn't a dealbreaker.

I've never used an Ipad. This is probably not a competitor in any sense of the word. Don't get me wrong, Android is one slick OS, and I'd like to see it optimized for a bigger screen, with a real touch screen. But, if you're wanting an Ipad, get that instead.

I tend to think of the Sylvania tablet as the successor to the handy Nokia tablets of a few years ago, but in a bigger, more usable size, at half the price. And, in that regard, the internet tablet for casual use is becoming ubiquitous, and that's a good thing.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent, but no iPad, January 7, 2011
By 
M. Koo (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sylvania SYNET7LP 7-Inch Mini Tablet (Black) (Personal Computers)
I purchased the Sylvania mini tablet in December 2010, but it has a better processor than the Augen tablet.

Android 2.1 was optimized for smartphones with smaller screens, and is not optimized for tablet devices. The Sylvania mini tablet can do the following:

1) Has an accelerometer, but you can also use a setting to manual shift the screen orientation.
2) Can only use 16GB micro SD cards or smaller. The box even states 16GB micro SD cards, and not 32GB micro SD cards.
3) Use the stylus and not your finger, which is due to the problems of Android 2.1 on a tablet device.
4) Comes with a pre-installed music app and a picture/video app.
5) If you enable the third party install option, the following apps work without any problem: Angry Birds, Kindle, ASTRO File Manager, and Flash 10.1. I have problems with the ComiXology app.
6) Device has WiFi for web browsing, e-mail, and other apps that require it.
7) Two web browsers were installed, where links default to Skyfire instead of the Android brower. Skyfire does not like working with airport WiFi or other WiFi that requires an acceptance sign-in.

In general, the device works as my eReader, music player, and video player. If that's what you want, then this tablet is for you. If you want an iPad, wait until the better tablets from CES 2011 are released.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for a beginner, November 3, 2011
This review is from: Sylvania SYNET7LP 7-Inch Mini Tablet (Black) (Personal Computers)
I purchased this tablet for my 11-year-old who has never had any experience with a tablet before. It was easy to set up and works great. It is a little slow but not bad. All the negative reviews on this product are because people are too eager to compare this to an iPad or other higher end product. For the money you pay you get a solid product made for a beginner.
