What reviewers say

Both reviews praise the metal build, sharp display and fast gaming performance, while finding the software less polished than competing tablets. Gizmochina is particularly critical of the stylus workflow and reduced speaker detail. ROOTBLOG finds multitasking useful but advises against importing the Chinese version because of its software limitations.
