Review 1 for Filemate Identity with Wi-Fi, 8GB Memory & 7" Capacitive Touchscreen Tablet PC Featuring Android 2.2 (Froyo) Operating System
Lags, Freezes, *horrible* customer service

I have had this tablet for approx. 10 months and have had nothing but grief with this thing. What a waste of money! Freezes all the time, lags when playing games or surfing the internet. Now won't charge…so I sent it to the company to fix the problem, 8 weeks later, I receive the tablet back from the company UNFIXED, stated that the inside of the usb charging port have been stripped. Obviously this is a defect in the way it is made since the only thing that gets plugged into it is the cable that is sent with the tablet. Well, they said that because this port is considered 'damaged' they won't cover it…even though there is NO damage to this whatsoever. Moral of the story: spend your money on something that will last more than a year and have good customer service to back up the product. Filemate Identity is NOT the answer.

Review 2 for Filemate Identity with Wi-Fi, 8GB Memory & 7" Capacitive Touchscreen Tablet PC Featuring Android 2.2 (Froyo) Operating System
Beware of Password Lock!

I bought two of these for my 8 and 10 year old kids last year for Christmas. The tablets will freeze up when playing certain games that tax the processor, but for the most part they functioned well. Until last week, my 10 year old entered a password and could not remember it. Wintec can not help recover the tablet for a forgotten password. Now she is using it as a paper weight. The tablet is ok for the price, but make sure you don't forget your password.

My mother bought this for me last year for my birthday. I love it. Camera could be a little better, but I really don't use it for that anyway. Faster connection than I thought it would be. Would highly recommend this tablet for anyone.

loved the tablet initially. Went to install an ota update, the tablet locked up and now wont respond. It is bricked and is about as useful as a $200 paper weight. One that wintec makes near impossible to get repaired. All in 6 months of owning it. Merry Christmas to me

The price is great for something like this it's affordable love that i was able to download game and lots of other app's but i had to reset it like 2 to 3 times a day because of it freezing or noting appearing on the screen.i tried taking out some app's because i know that it's only a 8gb but still it does the same thing i hate having to reset it and then having to redo the date and time over again it was just annoying this all started the same day i got the item.love that Walmart was able to return the money back to my account the same day i called them.

Review 7 for Filemate Identity with Wi-Fi, 8GB Memory & 7" Capacitive Touchscreen Tablet PC Featuring Android 2.2 (Froyo) Operating System
Best of the inexpensive tablets

I rate this as the best of the "cheap" tablets here at Walmart. I give it an overall 4 only because it's not easily hackable ( easily rooted but no custom roms).
I tried a Pandigital Novel first. It will surf the web, read email and has a ebook app (I didn't try it) and access to some market apps by using a work around, there's not installed app to get to google apps market. So for the money, if that's all you want it to do. It's a bargain But the down sides are substantial; you don't mind a lightweight, plasticky feel; even if you can get to more apps market, many are not compatible. It will only play low resolution video.
The Cruz is a better version of the Pandigital. It has a better physical feel, the is screen smoother and more responsive. There's better access to apps markets, but because of the CPU many apps are not compatible. It will play 720 video but barely and not really watchable. (the problem is, if the bitrate is too high the video won't render and you get audio only)
The Filemate will play HD video, has google apps store with many compatible apps. If you do a websearch for it, it is suppose to be a clone of the Samsung Galaxy. There's a firmware update at the manufacturer's homepage that will enable the GPS. But the main problem getting a lock on the satellites. It will only work outdoors. A side by side comparison on a bus with my old G1 phone; my phone got a lock in 2 minutes and the Filemate never did. The only way I got it to lock was to stand outside in the yard.

I ordered 2 Tablets. One is seldom used, the other one was for me and I used it almost daily. As of Sunday, May 20, 2012, it quit working. It won't turn on. Is there a warranty on this product. I was loving it until it quit working.

I bought the Filemate Identity tablet as a Christmas present for my son. The thing locked up on Christmas day. By locked up, I mean it would shut down in the middle of an application and would not power back on. As it turns out, I needed to "reset" the tablet of which there is a tiny button for. Unfortuantely, my son had to do this once or twice per day. After, 2 weeks of this, the tablet just stopped working altogether. I would not recommend this product.

We love this product! We use it more for us, than my son. He loves it as well. He can watch Netflix on it and play games. I am looking for more educational stuff on Android. I recommend it for adults and kids.

It does occasionally freeze but it has not been a chronic problem and it resets easily enough. My 10 year old son absolutely loves it! Netflix works wonderful, we were able to download his Rhapsody library onto it, and the amount of free games and apps available is outstanding. My 15 year old got the Ipod Touch he asked for and I think he is a little jealous of his brother's tablet. I gave it four stars because of the occasional freeze of the screen.

I bought this for my son for Christmas and it never worked correctly. It constantly froze and had to be reset. Finally, after having it less than a week it froze completely and had to be returned. Thankfully, the customer service at Walmart was excellent and allowed me to exchange it for an Acer Iconia Tablet. I had to pay a little more, but it is worth it! The Acer is an excellent product for the money and I have had absolutley no problems with it whatsoever! Thank you, Walmart! Since we purchased the Filemate I believe Walmart has quit selling it. Probably because of the problems everyone has reported having with it!

I loved this tablet at first and after a few weeks it wouldn't turn on. After a little while I did get it to come back on and it was fine for a while. Then after a few more weeks it turned off and did not turn off again.

Great Android reader. Full market access. Good screen. Gps does not work but customer service was very prompt and helpful with trying to resolve. Some problem with gps being set for China, but didn't buy it for gps. The fact that it had full market access made this number 1. Bought for my wife and did not want to mess with rooting her reader. Battery lasts most of the day with reading and plays Netflix very well. Now i want one for myself.
