Being her first tablet, it was too glitchy andwith too many technical issues (Camera didn't work unless I restarted it, screen too touch sensitive, a few other pieves).For a first time user, I didn't want my Mom to be dealing with these issues. Otherwise resolution was great, cpu speed was tolerable, and it does give you a good feel of the android system. Get only if you are willing to put up with quality issues. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Tablet, Poor Support *by J***A on December 9, 2012* I had an older version of the Coby Kyros internet tablet and was wanting an updated version, so when I saw they Coby had an Android Ice Cream Sandwich capacitive version for under $150, I snatched up the deal right away. GetJar has never worked, but if you download 1Mobile Market and Amazon Apps, it's like having Google Play! Got Netfilx and Adobe Flash Player working with a bit of work. Kings Office makes my table very practical for school. Everything was fine in terms of WiFi, whether I went to school or a cafe w/ internet or a coffee shop, even Burger King and Target.The problem came when I took it to work and tried to log onto the network. The tablet was able to recognize the network and ask me for my creditals, but when I entered my information, it just said "saved" and would not connect. I purchased this unit September 24th of this year brand new, so I called customer service and asked them what I can do. Their only answer is to send it back and get another one if it's broken. It couldn't get onto on server, so at the time I didn't think it was worth the effort. As I found out 10 weeks later, my tablet had an older Android Ice Cream Sandwich preloaded, 4.0.3, which was reporting problems with connecting to 802.1XX EAP secured servers. I contacted customer service again and asked them how can I correct the operating system. They told me that I have to send it in for a replacement and it would take 4-6 weeks, which is ridiculous since they are not updating my unit, but pulling another one off the shelf to send to me. Then I asked why did my tablet have an older version of the OS on it in the first place, being that Android OS Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4, 4.0.5 and Jellybean 4.1 was already out prior to my purchase. They said that's the way it is and the only option I have to is to send my current tablet in and wait 4-6 weeks.So the bottom line is this: I really like the tablet for the money, I can hook up Netflix to my HDTV, get online everywhere (but work), listen to music, watch videos, all of the advertise points and then some. However, customer service is completely lacking and even ignorant of their own product (they could not tell me how to get Netflix). They make the tablet so you cannot update the OS, even when they send you an installed version that is outdated and riddled with bugs, so if you order this tablet (I would recommend it), then make sure that you have the most up-to-date Ice Cream Sandwich OS on it before doing anything with it.UPDATE 1-11-2013SOOO.....my screen died and I have to send it back and get a new unit. They said it will take 3-4 weeks. Don't get why it takes that long to replace an item when they are not reparing my unit. As I stated earlier, the customer service is not good at all. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tablet for the price! *by P***N on August 29, 2012* Just got this tablet two days ago and so far I'm loving it! This is my first tablet, and after reading many reviews and comparing prices and features, this seemed the best for the price.It runs apps quickly and has fair touch controls (I never was a big fan of touch screens). I've also used a pen stylus as well as my fingers and they both work well. The menus took a little getting used to (not quite like a PC) but I'm adapting quickly. I mainly bought this as a lighter replacement for my laptop to take with me on long trips and vacations, for videos and music, as well as some game apps.There are a few apps I'd like from Google, which is not available on this model, but the only thing available is the GetJar and Amazon apps programs. Still, there is a wide variety of both free and pay apps on both.The processor speed is great, videos loaded to the device directly work beautifully. Youtube videos vary due to quality, but most of the HD enabled videos look great. Some of the longer ones do lag often, but what can you expect?I added my own wallpaper and have started to put some videos and music on my tablet. I have yet to expand the memory with a micro SD card but I've ordered one, along with a USB keyboard and look forward to further customizing it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Coby Kyros 8-Inch Android 4.0 4 GB 4:3 Capacitive Multi-Touchscreen Internet Tablet with Built-In Camera, Black MID8042-4 - Supershieldz (3 Pack) Designed for Onn 10.1 inch Tablet and Onn Tablet Pro 10.1 inch Screen Protector, High Definition Clear Shield (PET) - Nannxiebky Universal 10 10.1 Inch Android Tablet Case, Multi-Angle Viewing Stand PU Leather Wallet Tablet Case for 9 10 10.1 Inch and More 9.0" - 10.5" Tablet, Purple Butterfly --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2654556-coby-kyros-8-inch-android-4-0-4-gb-4](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2654556-coby-kyros-8-inch-android-4-0-4-gb-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
