is it reliable, is it really android 4.0, does it have a custom UI?

The price as with most things in life matches the quality. It is fairly reliable, although I have had to reset to factory image a few times. It does use android ICS , but it has a custom kernel for its media tech processor that causes problems. The ui can be customized as it comes with Go Launcher. Its also not very powerful so, if you want to play n64 or pax games on it, consider a mainstream phone.

I got my G-Tab on October 6th. It came with Android version 4.4.2. I haven't had any problems with room for apps or anything.

It's an Android tablet. Android is an operating system developed by Google primarily for touchscreen devices. I like it and have no issues with it. But if windows is important to you look at the Microsoft Surface tablet. The Asus was better reviewed on Amazon and for other reasons it was my choice.

I had no problems with the machine, I set it up for my mother and she's not indicated any problems with the machine. The screen is a normal android, perhaps a little slow on response but not inordinately so. With proper application management it could be relied on to make presentations in a home environment.

The Google play version doesn't come with the LG features or UI. It comes with vanilla android. So basically it just looks different, but works pretty much the same.

Yes, The Android app works excellent with Ver. 4 - I use it on my Nexus 7 - Blue Iris is very stable from all approaches.

It's running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. I really haven't played with it much. I know you can go to the Google Play store and get apps. I just don't know how they play out through the sound bar. I'll update review once I do.

It comes with the Google Android Marketplace out of the box, though some of the applications seem to be missing from it. 90% of what I was looking for though is there, and available both free and/or paid versions.

I tried it. It works...but. It's a beta and not ready for prime-time. Looks like it will be more touch friendly. If your comfortable with loading operating systems, try it for the weekend. You can always go back. I did and I'm not a real tech savvy.

It's like any other Android device, it will depends of you, but with the preloaded software you can do it easily!!

I'm in the market, too. These seem like the top two android choices. Any comments?

I run vegan on mine! I love it! At first all I heard was how crappy it was but I love it was unstable once just had to install a stable ROM. Only thing I didn't like about OS was the market sucked. Waiting to be able to upgrade to honey comb to see what its like. So far my only complaint is that some apps are still small in a little square because there made for a phone but other than that I am enjoying getting to know my tablet!

I think so. I Never used it, but I installed some other apps (whatsapp, etc) with no problem.

It's running android 4.04 and the screen is the big problem for me, not high resolution like the Google nexus 7 and 10 which are the ones I use the most. The screen looks grainy to me but I'm old with old eyes.

The Xyboard did not come with documentation, however, one can go online and find the needed paperwork. As far as I know, there may be a manufacturer warranty. I am not completely sure. Performance wise, android 3.0 (honeycomb) is horrible. Fortunately, there is an upgrade to 4.0.4 and 4.1.2, which made the Xyboard run much faster. Under ics and jb, you will get a very decent tablet. I use it as a reader, remote control for my televisions, streaming video from the internet, and a remote device for some of my computers.

This phone has Android 2.2 or 2.3 . Either way there are lots of apps compatible. Many new don't work on dual core like this one, but for beginners it's ok I guess.

I have it, its my first foray into the tablet market. Been on laptops for the last 10 years and pcs before that. For an entry tab its freakin awesome. Especially at the price point, and considering the bugginess of honeycomb I am actually betting on the android community having a better version of froyo just for this tab.
