| 121 of 131 people found the following review helpful  Great Tablet with ICS 4.0.3 and Awesome LOW Price!, This review is from: Coby Kyros 9.7-Inch Android 4.0 8 GB 4:3 Capacitive Multi-Touchscreen Internet Tablet with Built-In Camera, Black MID9742-8 (Personal Computers)  ALERT: GOOGLE HAS INTRODUCED THE NEXUS 7 TABLET WITH TEGRA 3 PROCESSOR FOR GREAT GAMES, ITS 9 FOR 8GB, 9 FOR 16GB IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A TABLET AT THE SAME PRICE AS THE COBY I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU GET THE NEXUS 7, IT HAS A TEGRA 3 AND THE PRICE IS TOO WONDERFUL TO PASS UP. COBY HAS TO LOWER THE PRICES ON THESE TABLETS IF THEY EXPECT TO KEEP SELLING THEM. THE COBY 10" MODEL MID1042-8 IS AVAILABLE FOR PRE ORDER FOR 199.98, I'M NOT SURE IF THE PHOTO HERE IS ACCURATE IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THE 9742-8 MODEL BUT A LARGER SCREEN, THIS IS A GREAT PRICE FOR A 10 INCH TABLET Coby has done there homework. They have been around since 1990 and are not a fly by night corporation. This tablet is very responsive, no lags whatsoever. Aside from not including the Android Marketplace (now known as Google Play) you can download Amazon App Store application from Amazon.com using the browser which came on your tablet. It has all the hot apps you would need. The GetJar simply shows you FREE apps, they change every week so it's a good place for free apps, but not all of them are something you'd want. Check out 1Mobile for other android applications as well as hundreds of Android related sites searching your favorite web search page. WARNING: OLDER COBY MODEL "ROOT INSTRUCTIONS" MAY NOT WORK FOR THIS NEWER GENERATION OF COBY TABLETS, PLEASE DO YOUR HOMEWORK BEFORE TRYING THEM. COBY DOES NOT MIND IF YOU ROOT THE TABLET TO GET ANDROID MARKETPLACE (Google Play), I WOULD PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Firefox 14 for Android includes Flash support, as well as tap-to-play for plug-ins. However according to Mozillas site they have only tested the software on some tablets, and don't have Coby's newest models listed. Right now you are limited to using the built in browser and youtube player for youtube videos. You can however play flash videos after installing the Adobe Flash 11 apk, with VLC Player and other Flash Video capable players. FLV Player lets you play flash videos without Adobe Flash installed as it claims. Playing flash video from your microSD card is not a problem. Until Mozilla works harder on tablet versions of Firefox and Aurora, the browser which comes with the Coby plays youtube videos just fine in the a web browser window. You may have issues finding Adobe Flash, but searching 1Mobile.com with your browser on your Coby tablet. In the search feature enter Adobe Flash at the top of the webpage. In the results page the top should show the Adobe Flash red icon with F in the middle. Click on this icon. It will take you to the next page, where you need to click on "Download APK" with a little green Android symbol. After download, tell the tablet to Install the Application. After that your all set, I would recommend downloading this first, after its installed, turn off the tablet and back on again. So far played Angry Birds, a blast on a larger screen. No issues unlike my Samsung Galaxy S phone, this thing hasnt crashed yet, works flawlessly, has a beautiful vibrant screen and way better then a Kindle Fire! You can get a Kindle Reader app from Amazon for free and it works! You can also download an app called FLV Player from Amazon App store, its free and will play flash video files without needing Adobe Flash to do so, its also good for playing FLV files from external microSD card's you insert in the tablet. The weight of this tablet doesn't hurt your hands using it for long periods. The sound is really good, two speakers are on the left back side but easy to hear, even when its placed on a flat surface, though I always hold it in my 2 hands. Would recommend a few apps like PaperPort Anywhere, you also need the PC version, allows your tablet to print out webpages and documents to your wireless printer. Syncables 360 Home Network v.7 for the tablet and PC, lets you sync your Movie/Photos/Documents/Music folders on your PC so you can access files from the computer. A reference app would be The Complete Android Guide eBook, for learning more about Android. Using this tablet has been great, 4 month's so far but everything is flawless, screen is awesome, easy to look at. If you get a browser page which doesn't respond for whatever reason, or a game, press the power button down a second and it will ask if you want to close the browser page, or the game you are playing. I just choose WAIT and it usually starts again from where it left off. Playing games like Random Mahjong Pro is awesome, it looks so good on here. Crossword puzzle lovers will enjoy Super Word Search! Get Documents To Go 3.0 to read all those documents. The back camera works really well, front camera is good if your in good lighting and not to shady. Movies also look great on here, it's a small screen...

I have my main desk PC for word documents and printing. after burning out my laptop and don't want to carry the weight around when I travel. I'm lucky enough to have wifi at work and home so I don"t need an additional internet source. The keyboard works better for my fat fingers than using my android cellphone. I've been pulling up apps and bookmarking my favorite websites all week to make it easier for me. The only disadvantage I'm having is when I'm on my home email site I can't touch and open the emails without the keyboard popping up and getting in the way. I'll have to find a solution for that. I do have limited knowledge on all the tablets out there in the market. I've only just oberve the galaxy, I pad and one other brand from co-workers. I've already attached the 32SD card which! was very simple for more memory. So far it is doing all the tasks that I want from it. When on the internet the speed is very good.Also, for this price and the fact that these tablets, cellphones and computers become outdated so quickly it makes sense to not pay a lot of money for these types of adult toys,! 50 of 55 people found the following review helpful  2 Steps Forward - 3 Steps Back, By Golden Products "-VTD" (Arlington, VA United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Coby Kyros 7-Inch Android 4.0 4 GB 16:9 Capacitive Multi-Touchscreen Widescreen Internet Tablet with Built-In Camera, Black MID7042-4 (Personal Computers) - Great Speed and Usability Improvements.- Missing Features and many new Compatibility Issues. - Touch screen often does not respond (seems to be humidity related) The tablet itself is speedy and the capacitive multi-touch screen worked wonderfully at first. Picture viewing has improved by orders of magnitude, and all the basic apps packaged with the tablet have significant feature upgrades. My biggest complaint is that many of the file management features seem to have been eliminated or replaced with more automated processes. (e.g. the media player automatically scans your SD memory card and finds all media files) This seems at first to be an advancement, but it takes away the users ability to navigate to specific folders. The collection of all media is lumped together, making the process of viewing specific files more tedious, especially when a significant number of files are present. My biggest complaint about the physical product is the plastic edge feels cheap, it is wide with a sharp edge that rests on your hand while holding the tablet. It is so sharp that it will cut your skin if you stroke your hand along it. Perhaps it was a quality control issue, since the hard edge can easily be filed down. Android 4.0 is a welcome upgrade. Loads of new features and significant usability improvements. Too bad the system crashes so often. Media that played on the prior Kyros tablets just won't play on the MID7042. Some will launch, but almost all inadvertently stall at some point. Many formats will not play at all. Plugging the same SD card in the previous versions of the Kyros didn't exhibit the same problems. All launched and played flawlessly. The same goes for Android applications purchased through the Amazon Appstore for Android. Many apps will no longer launch or if they run they run poorly. Undoubtedly most of these issues can be attributed to the the new Android operating system, but it isn't clear what problems could be attributed to the new Coby platform. Thankfully the OS on this tablet is upgradable, so hopefully the performance issues will be solved in future upgrades. Also, app developers are due to release new versions of their software that should solve compatibility issues with Android 4.0. I look forward to seeing these software improvements. New Problems: (reduced rating to 2 stars) ----------------------------------------- Tablet crashes constantly if too many apps are open, downloading large files or after installing several apps in a row. The size of the tablet is a bit odd and none of the 7' tablet cases work with this model. I basically had to buy one and cut it in order to get my tablet to fit. I still doesn't look quite right. I found that in humid environments the touch screen does not work properly, it becomes less touch sensitive and just a chore to use since it is constantly interpreting a touch for a double tap and when I drag across the screen it stops the dragging motion in mid path, making some applications unusable. I wish I purchased a different brand. It just isn't worth the cost savings. |
