The Acer one ten comes in to the market offering a very affordable android base tablet in response to the many other competitor tablets that are currently out there. Out of the box the Acer looks very stunning. It has a plastic bezel which mimics a chrome feature surrounding the camera lens and micro usb drive for your sd card. The rear facing camera comes with a 5 megapixel lens and the front is a 2 megapixel. Don't expect to take any glamour shots with this camera however it is not entirely terrible. The camera comes with a few different features to help with picture quality. One of these features is HDR mode which helps to focus and capture more details surrounding your photo. This feature works ok but i never truly saw a drastic difference. The tablet comes with two forward facing side speakers pumping out sound quality that is ok at best and often at times i would notice glitches or distortion in the sound quality. The screen display wasn't too bad coming in at a 10.1" LCD 1280x800. Not the best picture quality i have seen but still pretty impressive for being an affordable alternative to the market. Gameplay and HD movie resolution seemed to stream just fine without any glitches or hiccups. Battery life is probably the one feature that stood out the most to me and that's simply because every other feature is average with no real consumer appeal. I found that at full brightness i was able to stream videos off netflix or youtube and get about 8 hours of life on a full charge. I'm sure with less activity and the brightness scale turned to 30% getting 9 hours shouldn't be a problem. The tablet comes equipped with the android 6.0 marshmallow software and a quadcore 64 bit processor. Basically broken down what this means to the consumer is you don't have the latest or fastest software and processor out there in the market but its enough to get the job down and play 90% of the android games that you may find. I found that when i first tried to update and download some games the tablet become very sluggish and took about a hour to finish 1 hardware update. Now keep in mind i had this connected wireless to a modem pushing out 90meg of internet speed. Multi-tasking with this tablet was very difficult considering that it only comes with about 1GB of RAM. I found that if i had more then three screens open i would often lag or completely freeze up. This in part is due to the low amount of available RAM i'm assuming. After all most cellphones out there come equiped with at least 2.5GB of RAM where as the Acer tablet is barely pushing 1GB. RAM is a key essential for how smooth a product will run along with other variables of course. The one thing that caught me off guard with this product is who they were trying to gear this for. On one hand you have a kids corner which has some pretty neat built in programs to keep children entertained and educated. Then on the other hand you have Microsoft programs such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint and a few others. If you have ever used these programs to produce a powerpoint display and help keep track of financial goals or accounting then you know just how valuable these can be. The only problem i find myself having with using these programs in a real world scenario is the fact that the processor and operating program are simply average. I found that when it came time to pull up my templates and give a display of what this tablet can do, there was alot of lag and downtime as it attempted to work for me. This may not be an ideal tablet if you work in the corporate market where time is critical. Bottom line when deciding rather or not to buy this tablet i think it comes down to two groups of people, children and college students on a budget. This is ideal for kids seeing as how there are countless programs and things for them to do. Also downloading apps for them off the google playstore the quadcore processor makes this process go buy quick and smoothly seeing as how most kid games are not that heavy on memory. As for the college student on a budget this is a good and cheap way to help out with all the projects that are going to be requiring alot of use of Microsoft. The built in templates that come with Excel are going to be very time saving and help out in the long run.

Good battery life
Good looking build
