My son is 7, ever since he has been 5 we have been using Amazon Kids Kindle Fire Tablet, started out with the 8 inch screen and now he is at the 10 inch screen. The 2 year warranty (worry free) has been true to there word, meaning I have had his tablet replaced about 2-3 times due to some issues with the tablet. The only issue I have is space just like you pointed out here, the space storage is very low and I have to keep deleting games to make room, also the parental controls are also great. So overall still an Amazon Kids Kindle fan. Now with all said do you believe this tablet from Walmart is better, also one final thing to point out, I have always purchased his tablets around Thanksgiving due to the Black Friday even Cyber Monday prices, it drops down from $199-$120, even have gotten it as low at $100.
The good news is that the tablet survived the drop without issues! Highly recommend getting a case like this or even this tablet if your kid drops his/her tablet a lot
@@UndergroundTech good, my parents had got these exact ones for my kids Christmas presents. I’d like to know what all apps it supports and if it supports this program called clever badge.
Went to buy my 5 year old son this exact tablet. His old tablet broke. The employee at Walmart told me I couldn't download Netflix hbo max or any app other than nick jr RUclips kids and kid games. His old onn tablet was a kid's tablet and I was able to download peacock Netflix and other streaming apps. I mentioned this to the guy and he told me they changed the tablets to make them more age appropriate. I'm trying to find out if this is true or not before I purchase the tablet.
I just bought the same but 8 inch and when I try to install, it’s asking me for a credit card when I personalize for my kid. Can you guide me how to get by that? Thanks
I've been using your videos to get a look at cheap tablets for the sake of recognizing whether or not they're worth attempting to target as a min spec - not only is the answer "ohgod no", I actually found out that the Galaxy Tab S7 Lite - sold at one point for $149 and now currently discounted to $99 is actually HALF as powerful as this device, with a lower resolution screen, a smaller screen, and worse build quality overall (and no pretty sparkles on the back). As a dev I just want to say that targeting anything less than 4GB of RAM is a hard pass for any "real" 3D games, and that this kid's tablet is still only 41.8% as performant as the Nintendo Switch when it comes to GPU capabilities in handheld mode, and a mere 27.2% as performant as a docked Nintendo Switch. The CPU is a bit better, benchmarking at 19.6% faster, but while the CPU was a major bottleneck for the Switch, the GPU is absolutely the bottleneck for the Onn 2024 tablet. In 2024 targeting devices that are worse than the Switch is a luxury afforded to the types of games that kids probably shouldn't be playing based on their monetization strategies (the kind that make it make sense to pay someone to optimize the heck out of your game so that a child with a $99 or less device can play it) and I just want to reach out and say that based on my research the Samsung A15 5G is still losing to a handheld Switch - it's only 76% as performant. I've chosen a Tab 9 FE (same chipset as the Samsung A35 and Samsung A54 but runs better due to formfactor and can be gotten for about $260 used) to target 60FPS with, assuming that devices worse than this one can at least maintain 30FPS. Compared to the Nintendo Switch, the Tab 9 FE: 3.76x faster than the switch CPU in single core performance. 97% faster than the switch GPU when the switch is in handheld mode 28.2% faster than the switch GPU when the switch is in docked mode. Has 6GB of ram (managed by default android) vs 4GB of ram (managed by Switch OS) If I can run something that 60FPS on this tablet then theoretically that game can run on the Samsung A14 5G and A15 5G because they perform roughly the same, which is 67% as fast as the Tab S9 FE in Single Core and 50% the speed in GPU performance. Those phones are powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6100 and Exynos 1330 respectively, whereas the FE has an Exynos 1380. I'm fairly certain that what I'm doing isn't going to be too out of the ordinary - targeting the Switch for games always required a complicated porting process due to how weak the hardware was - every port was a headache. If I can't get the game to run at 60FPS on the FE and thus need to target 30FPS on the FE, that's just kind of what happens. Back in 2014 my iPhone 4S would get hot playing Plants VS Zombies 2 but that didn't stop me from playing a game that i was enjoying. I can only hope that people feel the same way if their cheap phone or tablet can't run my game without running in the highest power mode and thus draining battery and heating up. I'd love to be able to target this device, but it's a potato. I'm saying all of this just to put it into perspective how poorly the device performs. I'm making games that are about Switch level, maybe a bit better, and just praying that I can optimize better than Nintendo / porting companies, alongside adding graphics options for cutting corners to enable it to run on devices that it has no business running on. And all of this just so that I can say that you typed Walmart without the R and I'd hate for this video to reach less people because of it.
That thing does a lot better than any of the old ones I’ve had because I hate it. It keeps cracking. It seems like within two or three months of getting the device one or two drops later and it’s broken. I’ve had a iPad for three years that is still in good condition after like at least 15+ drops it’s sad.
Have you looked at the Amazon Kids Kindle? I wonder how these compare. I have liked my Kindle Fire HD10 (2019), but find the os limiting. What are your thoughts of actually using them for kids, is there a better choice, or better experience between onn and kindle?
Honestly i see these tactical fancy rugged tablets for survival military guys, and I'll be honest I think the kids tablets look like they do a better job
Did anybody else notice it doesn’t have a place for headphones? My daughter has these cute headphones that she loves but can’t use because there isn’t a spot for it .
Thanks for the video! I accidentally deleted the RUclips icon on my home screen next to the browser. I re enabled the app, however the icon is still missing. Does anyone have any idea how to get the widget back?
it should handle it ok. since roblox requires 1GB ram and this comes with 8. I'm also looking to buy this right now and I was wondering about roblox too.
Hey All! Have questions? Ask Me Here - asqme.com/@UndergroundTech
Just bought it. Thanks for the best review! Gonna see how it holds up for my son. 😅
Glad I could help!

Hola quiero saber si se le puede poner una tarjeta sim
Did anybody else notice it doesn’t have a place for headphones? My daughter has these cute headphones that she loves but can’t use because there isn’t a spot for it .
I had to buy my daughter Bluetooth headphones
Thanks for the video! I accidentally deleted the RUclips icon on my home screen next to the browser. I re enabled the app, however the icon is still missing. Does anyone have any idea how to get the widget back?
does roblox work okay on this or does it lag really bad??
it should handle it ok. since roblox requires 1GB ram and this comes with 8. I'm also looking to buy this right now and I was wondering about roblox too.
Does it come with a screen protector installed already
I don't think it did
You'll most likely have to order the screen protector online. Make sure it's the Onn 2024 screen model size.
I hate to be the guy who whines about his bricked device, but I would really apreciate some help. Looking for the stock rom for the Onn surf 100005029
Can this tablet download roblox ?
