Top critical review
1.0 out of 5 starsVery Limited...

The Video conferencing is the only reason I'm giving this one star otherwise this doesn't even worth the one star, I'm upset of it because it lacks a lot of a very basic functionalities that are available on similar products, I use the echo show 2 all the time, and this device can't do 90% of what the echo show 2 can do.
How could it be better? well the number one thing that I need to be able to use it is keyboard/mouse support. You can browse the web on this device, but with the touch screen it's very annoying with the onscreen keyboard.
Apps, very limited apps, not even a Facebook app, come on! It's totally locked, so you can't add apps from other sources.
You can't do anything with the Camera, it's only for calling someone on your Facebook friends list who also have to be on a mobile device or another portal, you can't communicate with a guy using Facebook from a laptop for example. You can't stream, take a picture, or use it as a mirror, because there's not camera app even.
and the price, I got it on discount and I'd kill my self if I've bought it retail because it totally doesn't worth it.
So again if you only want to video call someone who happen to have a portal, then this might be a good device for you if you intended to do a lot of video calls other wise don't bother.
