We purchased this tablet at uPlay Tablet and after 1 day we absolutely love it. Very easy to use. Responsive, clean touchscreen, vibrant display. The quality of the camera keeps me from giving it 5 stars, but honestly we don't expect to use the camera for our needs anyway. Battery life seems acceptable. Weight and size are great. I might consider these for some IT projects I'm working on at the office. Save the $300 price difference with the iPad and get one of these unless you require 9.7" screen size.

So what did I want the device for:
1) Read books.
2) Watch Video/Netflix.
3) Skype.
4) Email
5) Web browsing.

As the iPads and e-paper kindles don't support flash that eliminated those devices pretty quickly for me. The Fire doesn't have a microphone or camera so that eliminated that. So I was left with the Samsung and the woPad i8. The Samsung is a really cool device- light and thin with a great display, However for my use case that didn't matter. The woPad has a micro SD slot so could buy a SanDisk microSDHC Memory Card to expand to 32GB for about $35.
Pros:
Can swap in 32GB SD cards cheaply
HDMI
Duo cameras
Price ($300 cheaper)

Cons:
Performance:
Single core processor
Android 2.3

After buying 1 device and using it for a while I ended up buying 3 more as presents. For my use cases it was good device at a great price. I got some very affordable handy accessories and use it much more than I thought I would. Definite buy.

For almost the same price as the comparable Amazon Kindle Fire or the Barnes and Noble Nook Tablet, the woPad i8 offers much more.

I decided on the 8" woPad i8 tablet yesterday after browsing through both the Kindle Fire by Amazon and the Nook tablet by Barns and Nobel. I wanted a solid tablet that would be able to function as a e-reader, was small in size (iPad is just too big), and that would be able to run apps from the Android app market well.

The main reason I like the Vizio is that it allows you to run Barnes and Nobel's Nook app alongside Amazon's Kindle app, while at the same time offering full access to the Android market, and the use of a built-in camera for video chatting. For a similar price, woPad i8 offers much more than either the Kindle Fire or the Nook Tablet, is easy to use, and is fun to operate.

I also love the fact that the screen is a full inch larger than the Kindle Fire or the Barnes and Noble Tablet. The difference is huge, especially with 1024x768 high resolution - same pixel count as 9.7" iPad 2 .

Though not perfect, I would definitely recommend this tablet!

Crazily enough, we bought this thing TWICE. There was lots to like. It was snappy fast, the build quality was great, and the screen bright and crisp. For web, we downloaded the Dolphin HD browser and eliminated the need for Facebook and other social media apps as it Dolphin runs web pages properly. Games aren't really our thing, but there are plenty in the market if we need a solitaire fix.

So why did we return it? Well, with a 7" Galaxy Tab and original iPad already in our possession, we just felt like we were missing the boat by not having Honeycomb. Hence, we took it back and ran over to Best Buy and got the Asus Transformer . After a couple weeks with the Transformer , we decided the 10" form factor is a tad too big for our tastes and we took it back to wait and see what the market will come up with between now and Christmas. FYI, Honeycomb is badass, though nowhere near the polish of iOS. Given time, though, it could really challenge Apple, IMO.

Then, lo and behold, the woPad i8 tablet suddenly dropped to $229.99 and we missed the little guy sitting on the coffee table. Hence, we bought it for the second time, with no intention of returning it.

I just got one of these as a gift for my sister. Initially I was skeptical about the build quality, as the device is really cheap. I read some positive reviews online and saw one being used by a colleague of mine and I was sold. To begin with, let me clarify, this is no Ipad 2 (Even though it is lighter than one). But for the price point, this is a great investment. For me a pad is supposed to be my internet access device and a video playback device on the go. This woPad i8 does both excellently. The HD video played flawlessly. I was able to view flash content as well without any issues. My sister has already tried multiple applications from android market and they have worked fine till now. One of the best feature about this is it has both front-facing and back facing camera , so you can switch it during video call. Really convenient!

To summarize the positives
1) Great build quality
2) Aluminum case
3) Plays Flash content
4) HD screen
5) Front and back facing cameras

In terms of negatives,
1) There is no 3-G support. I cannot connect to internet when there is no Wi-Fi. But you can buy an external dongle to do it.
2) It doesn't support the really old WiFi routers.
3) Uses android Gingerbread. Which is a little older release. (Although i read online that they will be releasing Ice Cream Sandwich , the latest android version, later).
4) The package doesn't look very professional.

Final thoughts:
This device is really usable and, for the price, i think this is a great buy. I intend to use this as a gift as well.

My daughter has an iPad, so I\'ll start with saying that this is not an iPad, so I won\'t make the comparisons. But for the price (I paid $249), it\'s a terrific product. I noticed that it\'s now selling below $200, so I should have waited a bit longer...

First, the hardware is solid. The fit & finish is top-notch, and the aluminum case allows for a better grip. I love the screen size... 8\" is fairly unique, and it\'s perfect for my hand (for emails), for e-books, and for portability. The screen quality is brilliant, and battery life seems long as well. I logged on to my gmail account, and everything synched up flawlessly (mail, photos, contacts). But my favorite part is the HDMI port, which I can connect to big screen TV.

The only bad thing I noticed is some software glitches. This may be normal for a new product, and it hasn\'t bothered me yet. I assume woPad will update these glitches with software updates.

The only thing I don\'t like is their package - not as good as the typical product selling in US.

Overall, I am very happy with this product for its value, and I intent to get another one (for my wife) if the price really goes down below $200.
