Would recommend
I would highly recommend. My son plays lots of educational games such as math and letter games and it has excellent parenting controls to restrict screen time etc It's easy to use and set up. I'd say it's suitable for 4 to 10 years old. Battery life is long and easily entertains the kids on long journeys. Picture is good quality.

Great I pad alternative
I think these are perfect for kids and such a cheaper alternative than an I pad. Has all the apps and games on there and all age appropriate. The parent dashboard is useful and you can control what's on and time limits. It will also show you what they have been on and for how long. Battery life is ok and the picture quality good.

Great
Kids love it, good sound and picture quality, big enough to use without being too big, lots of functions for kids. Bit of a faff to set up, I bought two (two kids) one set up easily the other not soo much as some of the functions didn’t work and had to reset. Well worth the money tho

Overall Good & Gets Job done
I bought in deal £79.99 which makes it Best value for money Tablet as comparatively other Tablets. I know there are more Tablets available in this price but I can’t take risk because we don’t know after sales service. No security updates & quality of tablet. Here’s some pros & cons which i found. Cons: 1) Some times hang & lag. But consider the price it’s ok. 2) I feel complicated if i need to setup something and want to remove Unwanted apps from the screen. 3) Don’t have Google store for the apps. 4) Alex calling app which allow to outgoing calls for approved contacts but approved contacts can’t receive the calls. Example I setup my contact number as approved contact so that my Daughter can call me anytime. But if i want to call my Daughter on her tablet she doesn’t receive the calls. Which can be fix by software update.This is big con for me Pros. 1) Trust of Amazon 2) Regular security updates 3) Display & Speaker Quality is good according to price. 4) 1 year Amazon kids subscription is free. 5) Parental control. 6) Comes with good quality case. 7) 2 Year worried free Guaranty. 8) In £79.99 it’s best value for money tablet for kids which gets job done.

Good quality
My son has been addicted to this iPad since I got it! The charge is brilliant and I never got a screen protector he’s thrown it and everything it’s still fine no cracks or scratches and it’s been 3 months! I actually took it away from him because now I think he’s too young for an iPad I will give him it back when he’s a bit older, the free Amazon kids is really helpful and you can keep tabs on everything
