I got this for my grandson who was 28 months at the time of purchase. It was to be a Christmas gift however since we were there for Thanksgiving I gave it to him so I could watch him enjoy it. Boy does he ever, he was always on my tablet or nook so he was very familiar with the touch screen. It is set up in kids mode and he loves it, would be on it 24/7 if allowed. Adding the amazon app and with netflix he has movies at his fingertips. As for parents going from kids mode to parents you have a galaxy tablet. I was worried the orange bumper would not be enough but it is supper thick and sturdy. This is a wonderful investment that can grow with your child.
I first bought one for my 3 y/o and he loved it my 5 y/o saw it and wanted one and all I can say is im very pleased with how they hold up and what they do
We have only had it for a few days but we are loving it. Took a bit for me to figure out the parent interface but once I got it down, it was easy to set up and load my child's favorite apps. She loves it, I love that it blocks her from making unintended purchases, it asks for a password even if the app is free.
I had bought my daughter the Nabi which lasted less than a month before it broke. We exchange the Nabi for the Galaxy Tab 3 for kids and my daughter loves it! She has played with the Tab more in the week she has had it than she ever did with the Nabi. I would recommend this to any parent looking for a tablet for their kids, it lets you control what apps they can access and put a time limit on it. It's great!
Great affordable tablet for kids. I love the ability to control how long my son plays with it. I love that it has a parents mode so that you can play with it to and its more then just a table for the kids or for an adult.
BUT….its really laggy. The response time is really bad….like really bad. I wouldn't recommend playing a game like subway surfers where you need it to react as fast as you do.
Purchased two of these for my twins for Christmas. They love it. The parental controls are excellent, you can control the length of time they are on it and what apps they have access to. It comes downloaded with a bunch of apps already which will get you started. The orange bumper has already been well tested and has held up fine.
Only thing I would like to see as in all things Android is more accessories. Would like the option to purchase multiple color bumbers, easier to distinguish each twins tablet. Also it would be nice for a clear plastic film that is contected to a case to help protect from the kids sticky fingers. I purchased a similar case for my older daughters tablet but have not found anything for this tablet.
