Great entertainment for the kiddo w/ parental controls that are easy to setup
I like that it comes with their apps and parental controls already on it. The first couple of hours the tablet runs slow but that’s only because it is setting up and downloading all the kids apps that you select during the setup process. It has great kids learning apps already on the home screen so you don’t have to spend all day searching for the right ones. It’s size is perfect for my 4 year old toddler and it is light weight with a durable foam cover to withstand the storm that can be my daughter. It has a good screen dimmer for night time so it won’t hurt her eyes so overall you cannot find a better product for the price.

UPDATED REVIEW: 1-star to 3-star
2nd UPDATE: I had to change my rating to 5 stars because the tablet has been great since my last review update. No complaints at all. The sound quality isn’t exceptional but for a little kid, it’s more than good enough. It’s easy for a parent to switch back and forth between kids and adult modes, which is nice. I would recommend to anyone else who buys this not to test it out until it’s charged and has had a few hours to update or “warm up,” if you will. I’m overall happy with the purchase.UPDATE: After charging the tablet to above 15%, it seems to be working much better. Apps will now load and I am able to download videos. Screen resolution is actually better than expected. I’ve decided to give this tablet a chance for a couple days before returning it. I changed my rating from 1 star to 3 due to the fact it was initially extremely slow and unresponsive, which can lead many more people into thinking it’s just not going to work. If it craps out again, I’ll update my review accordingly.(Initial review)* I took a chance on this tablet after reading the reviews, thinking perhaps the people who left negative reviews just didn’t know what they were doing. Turns out they were all right….this tablet is crap. It’s incredibly slow and the apps don’t respond when you try to open them or download a game/video. I’m sending it back today. Save yourself the same hassle and just buy an android tablet.

Great parental control
I got this tablet for my 3yr old daughter and I’m in love with it! The picture quality is great. The set up is very easy and the tablet walks you through the set up process. I love the preloaded games as they are perfect for learning and playing along. This tablet comes with a charging USB to USB c cord and a charging cube. The screen is big, you can adjust the font size and the screen moves with the your first touch (so no more getting angry for the screen not recognizing your touch). The best thing about this tablet though is the amazing parental controls. I can set a timer for screen use and permission is sent to the parent account before downloading unauthorized content. There is so much more but I am still learning all the features and the amazon kids + makes no wifi areas even more enjoyable. Can’t go wrong with this tablet, great buy.

Good for price
This is an updated review from a few weeks ago.Iâd say this tablet is pretty fast and is great for the price. Itâs not as fast as a some other brands, but itâs also significantly cheaper. It started out very fast, but slowed quite a bit once my kid downloaded just a few simple games from the Amazon Kids app. I submitted a review that was 3 stars (initial review below), and Amazon customer service reached out to me within 1-2 days! They suggested I update it (itâs crazy that it needed an update already, since we had just got it), which did significantly speed up operations.So, if you frequently update it and reset it (by holding down the power button until the unit shuts down) then it will operate reasonably fast when using the Amazon kids app, but will be very glitchy and slow if you donât. After this latest update, I am even more convinced that the tablet itself is pretty good, but when using the Amazon app, it slows down. I have another Amazon tablet thatâs a few years old and the Amazon kids app slows it down, as well, but hasnât yet caused the freezing and other glitches that I have experienced with this tablet.All in all – Iâd buy this one again. Is it the perfect tablet and the one Iâd prefer to have? No. But Iâm not going to pay 3-7x the price for a faster brand (at least not for my kid) ;-).***My initial review: It started incredibly fast, but it very quickly slowed down as soon as a few low data games, etc were downloaded. It is very glitchy and freezes frequently. It could be that itâs the Amazon Kids app and not the tablet itself, but my guess is itâs a mix of both being subpar. I bought it during prime day, so Iâd say for that price itâs still worth it for a 5 -6 year old who isnât super tech savvy. But for any older kid familiar with technology, this would probabe too slow. I donât think Iâd pay full price for it.
