Vankyo S20 very good
A happy replacement of a dead iPad. OK it didn't update anymore but it was a perfectly good piece of electronics that cost a lot & throwing it out because the battery died and you can't plug external power in annoyed me no end. So I took a chance on this Vankyo S20 which is a 1/3 of the price with similar glass screen, metal case and a widescreen shape that is marginally more area than the iPad. Well built, well spec'd, slightly heavier and obviously a step up from their cheaper plastic tablets, with current Android 9, fully charged battery, a power supply and lead, well packed in a solid box. My use is mainly online research, news, social media, youtube and reading ebooks for which I like the portrait mode. If like me you are switching from an iPad you'll find it easy to get used to, it's not that different to use and has a better keyboard, though the sound is thinner than Apple's, but remember the price. Wifi, Bluetooth etc all work great, screen is good, it downloads and works fast, and battery life so far is good. Delivery was quick. I want the right size swivel case for it, which Vankyo do, but as I write it's 2020 lockdown time & deliveries are awaited from China, understandably. Meantime, I got a big Lamicoll S stand which holds the tablet on a table top in portrait mode at any angle very solidly. Pleasantly surprised and very happy with the Vankyo S20. Recommend.

Does what it says in the description
I am not very good with technology so was very unsure about getting a new tablet. I bought an ipad about 7 years ago and I can't say I've ever go to grips with it! So this time I wanted to get an Android because so much more people I know would be able to help me with it should I have a problem. My friend helped me choose the VANKYO Matrix pad S20. She was on standby should I have any problems setting it up. She was never needed it was so simple quick and easy up and running within a few minutes. I love the screen size and the speed of everything on it. It's so light weight and can't believe it's taken me this long to make the move to Android. I can now watch all my favourite TV programmes wherever I want in the house without it freezing!!!! Love it

Excellent value for money - easy to set up
Bought this to replace my ageing Sony Xperia tablet, for half the price. I popped in the micro SD card from my old tablet, signed into Google and was given clear onscreen instructions about how to copy my data from the old tablet.All the controls are similar to what I have used before, so it was easy to navigate around and try out all the apps. Only thing I haven't located yet is a Gallery app (maybe there isn't one?). The photos seem to upload straight to Google photos.It is very responsive to touch and flicks through the internet pages with ease. Battery life at this stage seems excellent.Nice solid metallic casing. At present I don't see where I can buy an outer case and tempered glass for it. The screen does show up fingermarks in sleep mode, which I am hoping will be resolved once I get a protective film for the screen.Only slight disappointment is the sound quality from the speakers, it sounds a little "tinny". When I attach a headset though the sound quality is perfect.No hesitation in awarding it 5 stars - great value for the price

THE DOGS B******S
I'm writing this review on behalf of my Dad, who we have bought this Vankyo tablet for, for his 79th birthday as his Samsung tablet packed up. So in his words... Highly recommended, so easy to set up, and you get an actual paper 'instruction booklet'. Didn't have to charge it up when it came out of the secure sealed packing and it was charged to 90% when I turned it on. So far, so good, even though I've only had this tablet running for about 6 hours of actual use, and the battery life is excellent so far, with only 30% use. I've had internet windows open, emails opened and downloaded a couple of apps so I can see that the battery life could easily go 12 hours on one charge with general use. The case is metal and nice and sturdy and the picture quality is as good as my Samsung. Although the screen size is the same as my Samsung, this Vankyo has a smaller 'frame' around the screen itself which gives a 'widescreen' feel. The only criticism I have is that I can only find one specifically made case to put it in! There are universal ones but I'm not keen on them.. I'll keep looking but this would not stop me from recommending this tablet to anyone. Very, very pleased.

Excellent value for the money
We bought this for my mother-in-law as a replacement for the dying laptop that she refuses to replace. For the price, the specs of it are pretty fantastic. The 8 core CPU, 3GB RAM and 64GB memory will allow the storage and smooth running of plentiful games and applications. Load times for games are low and the device doesn't get hot when put under strain from heavy use.The screen is nice and bright with good clarity and the touch sensitiveness is great. Due to the size, it holds well in your hands and feels comfortable. It also feels durable and solid but I will look to purchase a case for her, unless my mother in law choose to do that herself.Even under heavy usage the battery life seems to be very good. You can supply an additional micro SD card for added storage, which is a nice touch in general for Android tablets and smartphones - although we haven't had to do this as yet. For the price, this is an absolute steal and performs just as well as the leading iPad and Samsung tablet models for a very reasonably low price.

10 inch tablet
I got this tablet for my son and wanted something basic without it costing a lot.This is great 10inch smart pad for the kid. Android 9.0 system runs smoothly, WiFi stays stable and is easy to operate for my son. It has 3 RAM processor and 64GB ROM, Support TF Card for expandable storage, which is very suitable for my kid download games from play store, read books, or do some painting. Battery seems to hold charge. So far this tablwt works well, my kid is very happy.
