4.0 out of 5 stars Upgrade to Android 2.2!!!, July 7, 2011

I bought this in February 2011 but wasn't terribly impressed. I was unsure if the touchpad wasn't very sensitive or if the OS was part of the problem. It often required 2 or more taps to activate a button/selection and browsing the web was klunky and slow. I installed Amazon Kindle and it worked well enough but often crashed and on restart returned to the starting location from before the crash, often making reading irksome. The 7 inch screen is large enough to be useful in most situations and makes the unit very portable. The graphics display is quite nice in most applications (Kindle books look great) although the Solitaire game that comes with the tablet/O.S. looks like something on my old Motorola Razr and a Mah Jongg game I downloaded looks downright crappy. Since games aren't important these shortcomings aren't important to me.

Yesterday I came across information about upgrading from Android 2.0 to 2.2 and decided to give it a try. What a difference! First,... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Actually pretty nice for the price, August 2, 2011

This review is from: Velocity Micro T301 Cruz 7-Inch Android 2.0 Tablet (Black) (Electronics)
Received it with the new Froyo 2.2 OS installed right out of the box, its 2.2.1-rc7 to be exact. The capacitive screen behaves better than I thought, and I am not sure why people have such a huge issue with it, it works great and really is very responsive. The multi-touch does work, and yes, it does have some delay if you scroll around, say on a webpage or even to look around through your installed apps, its definitely not the same speed as you'd expect from an iPad, but its not bad at all either, I mean come on, this is a $150 product ! The more I use it, the more I like it, its definitely not as horrible as others have commented on some other reviews.

Tried to install Angry Birds, nope, didn't install at all, none of the different Angry Birds did. Guns and Glory though runs pretty slowly, again, the processor on the T301 is only a bit more than 500mhz, so I am not surprised. Some other games work fine, such as Robot Defense, which runs a very playable speed... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A color Kindle cheap/very happy, August 7, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Velocity Micro T301 Cruz 7-Inch Android 2.0 Tablet (Black) (Electronics)
Bought as a color, touchscreen Kindle. It's that and more!! Hooked up to WiFi fast and flawless. Great capacitive screen. Got live wallpaper. YouTube works great. Email works great. Needed get incoming/outgoing info from Centurylink, though. Must understand what you're buying. I have an iPad. This isn't one. Nor is it a full-fledged Android tablet. You're not getting that for $150!!! It IS, however, cheaper than a Nook Color with a Kindle selection. Some Android Apps work. Some don't. Try and see. Downloaded a video to 8GB SD card. Can't get it to play though. This is Android 2.2 out of the box. Didn't come with SD card. Not too important. They're cheap. No flash player. Skyfire Browser gives that though. I like this device. I like the 7inch screen. My kids steal my iPad and I needed a back up color, touchscreen reader/web browser with benefits for cheap. This is it!!!
