When you think of tablets, you probably automatically jump to a price-point of $200-$400 dollars. I mean, that's how much you'd pay from Apple, right? Turns out that there are a lot of sub-$100 tablets that run Android and offer great features and capabilities for far less. Including the NUU Mobile T2 Android Tablet with its humble 7" screen and dual-SIM support.
Tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ unboxes the T2 Tablet in this video, showing you exactly what's in the box and talking about features, users and pros and cons of a device in the sub-$100 range...

An Android tablet for under 70 bucks? Let's open it up and see what's inside
0:12
Dave Taylor here and you know I spend a lot of time looking at high-end electronics and really
0:17
fancy expensive gear but I always want to keep in mind that not everyone has a huge budget
0:22
and sometimes having something that's inexpensive or entry level or budget whatever word you want
0:27
to use is actually a really great thing. So enter this. This is the new mobile T2 Android tablet
0:37
and we're going to unbox it. You can see it still has that shrink wrap on it. Now as I unbox it and
0:43
of course for unboxing you always need your tool. So here is my unboxing tool. As I unbox it let
0:50
me tell you just a little bit about this product too because it is a very humble device. It is
0:57
like I said an Android tablet with a seven inch touch screen. The touch screen resolution is 1024
1:04
by 600 so it's not even 720p HD but honestly we're going to come back to that. I don't think that's
1:11
that much of a big deal. Now the rear facing camera is five megapixels. The front facing camera is two
1:17
megapixel. It's kind of like just like I don't know an overweight cell phone. Is that politically
1:23
correct to even say that? Anyway it's like a big cell phone with a seven inch screen right
1:28
In fact it supports dual sims. It has 3G capabilities. Obviously it works on Wi-Fi too
1:35
The unit is powered by a MediaTek 1.3 gigahertz quad core CPU. So this is I know that noise was
1:45
super annoying wasn't it? Get rid of the plastic. So this is not the latest and greatest Qualcomm
1:52
you know snapdragon or anything like that. But again for so much of what we use tablets for
1:57
we're just consuming information. Whether you're reading in the Kindle app or watching a TV show
2:03
on the Netflix app or you're just poking around playing a game. Most people don't need huge
2:09
amounts of horsepower. This is like one of these secrets that the industry doesn't want you to
2:13
think about. When you're poised and ready to buy the latest and greatest expensive super fancy device
2:19
with octa-core and all these sort of features you know and then zillion gigahertz and tons of
2:25
memory. Turns out you don't use the vast majority of it. In fact I know that on my tablet the vast
2:31
majority of the time it's doing literally nothing because I'm sitting and reading a page and then I
2:36
go to the next page. That does not take much processing power right. So before you immediately
2:41
say dude seriously the MediaTek you know with the what is it one gigabyte of RAM and eight
2:48
gigabyte of storage. I mean this is like a really small entry-level device and that's exactly what
2:54
it is. But that's a really good thing sometimes. So speaking of which Bluetooth 4.0 one gigabyte
3:01
of RAM or just said that eight gigabyte of storage but it supports micro SD so you can add an
3:06
additional 32 gig. 32 gigs a lot of space right. It runs this is pretty old Android 6.0 Marshmallow
3:13
That is a couple of generations back so that's probably the biggest thing I don't like about this
3:18
or I think I don't like I don't know I've been digging it out of the box yet right. So let's
3:22
actually take it out of the box while I'm talking. So here's the thing though is since it runs Android
3:27
6.0 Marshmallow that means here's our device that it gives you access to Google Family Link and
3:34
Google Family Link is pretty cool. It gives you a ton of controls if you want to give this to one of
3:39
your minions which is probably not a bad idea. Let's see if we can get this thing to power on
3:45
then that gives you access to things like usage timers and app usage controls and even things like
3:51
geo tracking and bedtime device bedtime. Let's see this might have been shipped with a dead battery
3:58
which is a little disappointing but let's see I don't see that it's turning on so that might be
4:03
something we do in our next exciting video installment. That's kind of too bad. Let's see
4:10
but we can still look at the device right so this is the new mobile T2 Android tablet and I keep
4:18
going down this list of features so it also has a 2500 milliamp hour battery which gives you
4:25
somewhere between eight and ten hours of usage. Obviously I'm unboxing I haven't tested any of
4:31
that so we'll just have to go with the vendor and what they say. Now also in the box there's not much
4:37
of interest in the box there are getting started with your T2 there is oh that's nice there is a
4:45
screen protector which is not a bad thing especially if you're going to give this to
4:49
someone that's going to be rather difficult with it like a child. It has a charging cable which is
4:56
micro usb you probably already have a micro usb cable and then it actually has a wall charger too
5:03
so let's actually look at the ports on here so on the top you have the micro usb and you have an
5:10
audio 3.5 millimeters that's for headphones and then on the right hand side you have volume up
5:17
down and power and you have a little pinhole which I assume is some sort of a reset and then on the
5:23
other two sides I don't see much of anything which makes me think that maybe the entire
5:28
unit pops apart somehow I'm not going to just do this and break it but there's some way that you
5:33
access the micro sd and you access the sim slot or tray so the nice thing is is it has a nice feel
5:41
to it the back is more like a sort of roughened plastic so it makes it really easy for you to
5:47
hold it and a little harder for it to slip out of your hands that's good because a lot of devices
5:52
have very smooth plastics or glass and that's all well and good but if you don't have it in a case
5:58
then you're likely to drop it so this is the gold color it actually comes in three different colors
6:04
it's gold rose gold or a very nice blue so those are your three options and like I said from the
6:11
unboxing perspective we have the screen protector we have the wall charger and we have the micro usb
6:18
cable and we have a box I'm pretty sure the box is not something you're supposed to be excited about
6:24
and the device itself and I will have to charge it I am a little disappointed it doesn't come with
6:29
some charge but case that ah and of course it also comes with the instructions which would let me do
6:34
things that I maybe I can just see super quickly how do you open this up let's see okay setting up
6:41
your tablet remove back cover remove back cover by prying the upper right corner of your device
6:48
with your fingertips okay I will give that a whirl upper right corner fingertips
6:59
well it fell on the floor which is a bit of a drag but now you can see here are all the things you
7:06
can control here so you have the micro sd slot you have the two sim cards you can put in there
7:12
so that's all well and good and hopefully the cover will still be intact because I can hear
7:17
my cat under the table right now playing with it this is life with cats those of you that have cats
7:23
know exactly what I'm talking about so I'm going to need to wrap this up because I need to rescue it right so this new mobile t2 android tablet before I tell you the price and talk about that
7:32
just a tiny bit let me ask can you go ahead and click subscribe and subscribe to my channel
7:37
really appreciate when you do that and I will give this a more formal review somewhere down
7:41
the road so please that's another reason to subscribe is to find out what are my impressions
7:46
once it's charged and once have used it for a while my guess is that for a young child or for
7:52
a senior or for someone who's like likely to break things or forget things this is a terrific option
7:58
this is really like the price of three hardback books nowadays and you've with this you could be
8:03
running you know the kindle app you can be running the google reader there's so many different ways
8:07
you can have an almost infinite amount of information or tv shows or movies or hulu or
8:13
netflix or whatever you want youtube live all of this would work with this and yes it's not super
8:19
hd resolution it's not some you know million pixels per square inch or anything but honestly
8:26
most people don't care most people don't actually see the difference so okay with that new mobile
8:32
t2 android tablet blue or gold or rose gold 69.99 at amazon.com 69 bucks for a seven inch tablet
8:42
that is a no-brainer if you lose this it is not that big a deal because it wasn't that expensive
8:47
