Overall this is yet another Bay Trail tablet but it has a higher build quality for a detachable than I've seen so far from other department store brands. It also has a 1 year warranty which, believe it or not, is unique for department store tablets. Many only offer support for 90 days.
Performance is pretty much where every other Bay Trail device has been in our testing. The advantage here at the $199 price really is build quality and detachability.

I just bought a HP Stream 11 and it really is amazing what $200 worth of computer can do. Another great review!
I really want this now, thank you for doing this impressive review, details by details are always awesome!
went to Target today and got this tablet/laptop for $159 huge sale. Appreciate the review keep it up.
You can get it at Walmart in this month as a deal for $135.00
Been using it for 4 months now and it works great!
+Lon Seidman - I'm looking into a RCA tablet and was curious if you still have this tablet and can do testing with XBox One stream to PC performance. I have seen a few articles where people have stated it worked well but I haven't seen any video reviews.
I was wondering if the tablet in the review is actually the 10.1" model. From what I've seen otherwise, the keyboard "bezel" is noticeably larger on the 11.6" compared to what is shown in the video. It seems like screen size is the only difference between those two models, though? Thank you for the very articulate and helpful reviews.
Thank you so much for showing info in such a great way
Can i use a stylus with it? Would it be good for drawing? L9oking at 10 inch tablets or the more pricy ipad or a chromebook. I haven't seen any good reviews on the tablets that they break down after two months.
This might be a stupid question but can you use it for digital drawing? If so what pen should I get for it?
mines is supposed to be delivered Saturday👍👌👌 looks cool😎 thanks for the review
Cj Gardner hows it
Cj Gardner pleas tell can we download fortnite on it please tell if u will tell me rite answer I will give u 5 dollars gift card
I'm thinking about buying one of these to uses as a second monitor for my Windows laptop. Does it handle casting well?
I noticed there's so many convertible tablet like this in this ever growing market, I still haven't found one that is just right. Can you recommend the best of them all? In term of budget and performance. I noticed you review so many of these hybrid laptop, amongst that you have review so far. Which one do you recommend? I noticed most if not all have bay trail processor and similar specs.
Awesome presentation sir,many thanks..
Thanks for the Review!!
Good deal, it's so cool that full windows 10 machines are available at pretty much any budget
+Nick Principe yeah but I think the sweet spot is coming from the new dual boot tablets that come with Windows and Android. Retina displays, enough ram and storage to get a little more of a load done and the price is dirt cheap, cheaper than a low end laptop.
+Clay Mann Yeah I was thinking that too. Cube and teclast tablets are a awesome value. It shocked me at how good specs you get for the price.
Nick Principe I know they're very tempting, especially the new teclast tablets. My only concern with them is build quality and having to buy them direct from another country. I was hoping to see them pop up on Amazon at a better price than I'm seeing now. These middlemen at Amazon etc. are whacking a fair bit on top. I'm in the UK so as always, we get the best stuff last in our stores :)
+Clay Mann They seem to have good customer satisfaction, but if something does go wrong ( any electronic can have this possibility) then it is harder to make it right. It's kind of a risk vs reward thing. Getting a great deal on a windows 10 tablet vs getting a well known western brand that can help you out if something happens. Teclast and cube have decent build quality I hear though, or at least in their more popular tablets
Still. I think these budget windows 10 machines are good deals anyways, it wasn't not that long ago where you had to pay much more to get a usable windows device and to add to that windows 10 is great as both a tablet and laptop/desktop OS
Nick Principe I completely agree with you. I mean I could Google any product, no matter how good the reputation and turn up people complaining about it failing in a forum somewhere. So the odd comment I've read about teclast having things like the screen not fit quite right so it has a little wobble to it, I'm sure those things are in a tiny minority.
Ya know I've never had a Windows tablet. I've been using Android tablets for years now to do the mobile thing and a big honking desktop PC with Windows when I'm sat at the desk. It's going to be interesting using Windows on a tablet.
I'm slightly tempted to go for one of the big 13" tablets and I heard a comment about a honking great 19" tablet coming out next year. My eyesight isn't great so bigger attracts me heh
Greetings I have a RCA W1162 ... brand new but the keyboard and trackpad are not working. I know the tablet detects the detachable keyboard as it switches to pc mode when connected. can you please assist me.
what would you recommend the use for it lon?
I got one of the tablets a week ago but.... when I got the keyboard..... I put it on and it turned the tablet off what do you do to fix it
Still using it in 2023. Perfect to RDP to my main machine 😎
Does it come with recovery USB or do we need to create one?
Lon, does RCA make a Chromebook or just Android Tablets?
does it use the same OS as desktop? i wonder if it can run flash sites and flash games?
Nice review. Thanks!
I just bout one for $100 I wasn't expecting a lot but this is awesome
Where did you find it for that price? ive only seen the 10.1 inch at that price :\
Marcelino Puente-Perez Walmart last night I think I was because of black Friday
same
I bought the RCA Maven Pro 11.6 for only $89, well without the tax included. Not sure what's really the difference between this and the Cambio though.
DarthRadec09 The Cambio runs Windows 10 and the Maven runs Android
would you recommend this for a college student on a budget??
My cambio screen was broken because I exposed it to subzero temperature, but I repaired it. I love this device a lot. This is 11.6 screen, a great thing for kids to study. Good speed. I adapted it with hybrid OS. I use it for remote operating my work equipment. Gives a good screen real-estate. Good for gaming too in full screen mode.
Can I buy any thing to upgrade other than memory like video card and stuff
i got the 10" version. it was onsale in walmart during thanksgiving for $129. it is a decent mini 2 in 1!
I want to say thank you for telling me these things :)
Is there a way to use the RCA Camio W1162 completely flat, both the screen and keyboard flat, not propped up?
Yup!
Walmart has an 11.6 Cambio for like $160 and the specs seem like they're the same as the Target one, but the keyboard looks different. And does the smaller 10.1 version run about the same? Walmart has 2 versions of the 10.1 inch, looks like one with Windows 8 and one with Windows 10, but the Windows 8 one is like $10 more expensive, it doesn't make sense. It'd be cool if you could make a video explaining the difference between the different Cambio models out there, RCA makes it kinda confusing.
Just curious out of all the laptops/laptop tablet hybrids you've reviewed, I'm not expecting to run hardcore, demanding games, but which would you said preformed the best when it came to gaming and overall performance on the inexpensive side of things.

I think the HP stream 11 came out the best in that area, you should check it out
Can you use a dual band wifi adapter? Need help ASAP!
love this gonna get one at a pawnshop near me
Is roblox good enough to support the computer storage
How do I sync it to my laptop to transfer files?
How do you dock the keyboard ?
One thing that i noticed was when you were showing the hinges features that when you put pressure on the back of the screen it distorted
Can this tablet support 128gb micro sd card, on walmart it say's that it can can support 64gb of additional space, can I still add more storage.
John Villante Productions no you can only use up to 64 gigs of micro sd
I got one on ebay for $60. So far I'm actually pretty impressed. Don't expect to run any graphic intensive stuff but It handles photoshop CS6 like a pro. I also like how it has a USB port so I can use my external HD since storage space is obviously low. Definitely opt for the 11.6 inch model as the screen resolution is better.
How's it holding up? What kind of stylus would you use w it?
Hi Lon, tried to purchase but not available yet from the Target website. On sale today for 159.99... but can't purchase. Weird
+Lon Seidman Hi Lon,
It was available today... 159.99.
Thanks for the great video. My son will love it.
I can't fix my keyboard it won't work any hwlp?
What intel core is it running?
anyone know any tablets that have built in stands like the surface book ?
is the screen an IPS screen ?
Is this really the 11.6 inches version? it looks like the 10.1, from the keyboard.
Are you going to review the Asus Chromebit? ☺
what pen can you use
THX FOR THE REIVEW DUDE I SUBED
I just ordered a factory refurbished one for just under $100 with a one year warrantee. For the money this should be a good device.
is it for gaming?
I bought this tablet at Walmart.com for $99. I received it on 4/12/2017. This tablet is great for the price (Windows 10 Home costs more than this tablet!). This tablet runs Windows 10 Home, obviously. The first thing you have to do when you buy this tablet is charge it up to 100% (according to the box), then power it up and set it up, and update it to the latest version of Windows. I recommend that you delete the Windows.old folder when you are done updating this device, because it uses a couple of gigabytes of space. Generally, you can run pretty much any Windows app on this (performance is variable). With light to moderate use, I get 4 to 5 hours of battery life. I highly suggest hibernating or shutting down this tablet when not in use because on sleep mode a lot of the battery gets drained. Overall, I won't complain at all especially for the cost of $99 at Walmart (as of 4/13/17). I would give this device a 4.8/5 rating. I will update this review when something comes up. If you have questions I would gladly answer them.
Jason Galo is it over all worth it ? I was thinking of buying a used one for $180
Can you upload RUclips videos on it?
It's okay. Nice build, but the front camera won't work. Something about another program is using it, no idea what that means or how to fix it. I literally just got the tablet and the display screen keeps going black and showing a message that the Display Screen is not Responding but recovered, alot. The keyboard and tablet disconnect from time to time, I just detach and reattach the two and they sync back up. It's a little glitchy, but I guess you get what you pay for. I got mine from Walmart for $160. Not sure if it needs to update or if the tablet is messing up. I also dislike Windows 10, wish it had Windows 8. Any suggestions?
I have the 10.1 Inch version, and I kept getting Blue Screen of Death error screens, and blank screens with the display adapter stopping, for some reason the driver for the display adapter that the tablet comes with causes it to crash a lot, so I just removed the Intel display adapter, though they have a more up-to-date version which you could try out and see if that fixes the problem. The updated driver is at downloadcenter.intel.com/product/85552/Intel-HD-Graphics-for-Intel-Atom-Processor-Z3700-Series
It's version 15.33.43.4425. Have no idea what could be causing the issues with the front facing camera or the keyboard though.
Anyone know its bits?
Nice video. I was wondering . Can I run Serato dj from this
Yes the new 2018 RCA Cambio is out can you do a review on one?
Can you charge via the micro USB?
Yes, but you can't transfer data through it.
Time-Lapser PRO but I use my otg flash drive on it all the time
I ordered one with a newer processor for $108 from Wal-Mart. I'm excited to see what I can do with it.
Hey Lon. Do you have any plans to review the Steam controller?
I believe he has already
DEMR1992 I think he's reviewed the Steam link/machine, but said he would spend more time with it before he reviewed it.
Can I stream my Xbox One games without lag, also what's the graphics card, Intel HD?
no
yea you can ^ I literally just tried it and it worked
It uses an APU. (graphics and cpu in one)
Hi, can you also make a review on acer one 10 2-in-1 tablet. It will be sold by Best Buy on thanksgiving day for $129.
can i download iTunes and transfer music to my iPhone?
Thanks
Is this great for college?
Will it run phone games
How come he has windows .? Thanks
can it run Clone Hero tho
Would like to see Lumina 950 windows phone that can be a desktop review
Bought this for $80 on Black Friday! Best $80 I've ever spent as I type from this thing.
ZoommaiR pleas tell can we run fortnite on your laptop if yes i am buying thise
CAN I ADD RAM????
Got mine from Wal-Mart for $59.00. Well worth it !!
Battery life?
is this similar to the insignia flex 11.6?
close. the flex has a higher res.
flex: 1920 x 1080 vs Cambio: 1366 x 768
flex has a higher megapixel camera
flex front: 2mp vs Cambio front: 1mp
flex back: 5mp vs cambio back: 2mp
and obviously the button placement are different but, other than what i have mention. They are pretty much the same.
Can you upgrade the ram?
it is soldered
Be aware! Modern RCA is NOT the RCA of yesterday. RCA is now a licensed brand linked to a China-based company. There is no Radio Corporation of America (as it were back in the 80's, 90's, and early 2ks.
Never thought I'd see the day where we have an rca branded computer with full windows and an intel processor for 200$ and under. It's actually 149.99 at walmart now
now it's 99.98
Just bought it for $119 on walmart's site, and it was the 10.1 model. Was $99, but it went up the day before I could finally purchase it.
Exact same tablet for 59.99 should I buy? I want to be able to play sims, roblox, and watch RUclips videos on it. How many sims expansion packs could I fit on there? Btw im using an external hardrive to use for sims. (EDIT - I have about 12 expansion packs)
Yea the price lowered I’m buying one for $60 on eBay and yes you can add more storage by buying micro sd card u can get a 128gb sd card and yes I’ve seen video you can play games very well in low settings or medium settings
DavidDaGamerYT convinced my mom to get it for me due to your response I thank you🙇♀️
Brynn green believe it or not u can play some new games on it
DavidDaGamerYT lol fornite?
Brynn green yes but in very low settings
where can I get this thing in canada
Walmart is where I got mine
what game can this tablet play
Its a really good tablet
Can it do tablet games like apps ?
Silver Mcqueen Yes it can do a few casual games and perhaps Minecraft, and runs many apps you can find from the Windows Store or the internet
if I get the 32 GB will it work for games like gta games and games like that
no
Chubb Chubb Yes it will run GTA V medium settings at 1080p
Getting one 6 days!!!
Can you run shellshock?
Yes
Walmart has these for about 150 right now. Not to bad. Considering picking one up soon cause my budget for these isent to far past 150 so.
Can I run Photoshop on this? Also, can I mount a USB hard drive to it?
For some things... The ram is the problem, and YES
I'm actually very happy with mine, but 11.6 listed here includes the bezel. This is a 10 inch tablet.
Whenever I installed a program to another drive it always installs a lot to the original drive like the Common files, Registry, etc and takes longer to access than normal plus Windows update alone after some time will use the remainder of that 32GB and you will find yourself uninstalling every program you have installed and eventually run out of room to update leaving you with a computer that has no anti-virus other than defender, but when that time occurs you can always run OpenELEC and install KODI... I have a Dell Mini I did this with.
+MrBrymstond this is where you want to make sure the SD support goes up to 128gb, those little cards are coming down in price fast and they'll make these cheaper tablets a little more useful
It might help to get a little smarter about knowing where the bloat is in Windows. I'm sure there will be tools that help target that exact job before long if they're not already out there.
Clay Mann I do it for a living
Justin Higgins I wasn't trying to say you could not use them. Just that it's a good thing to look out for. Older tablets, like every single one I own lol have 32GB limits. That's not something I realised when buying them.
I'd love to see this micro SD card that's two terabytes, I'm thinking those came to you in a dream.
Justin Higgins you couldn't find them because they don't exist. Perhaps you saw some fake listings like I mention in the next paragraph?
128GB is a nice sweet spot to aim for on a tablet. 200GB do exist but ouch at the price. You'll find plenty of listings for 256GB cards that seem to be at 16GB prices, they are all fake. They report that they are 256GB but will fail the moment you write above the 8GB or 16GB, whatever it really is. Amazon is flooded with them as is Ebay.
+Justin Higgins i read somewhere this puppy has a 32gb limit, and since you can find those cards for 12$ thats what i went with.
How switch to windows mode
Tech mami You have the wrong tablet.
Is this 32 bit or 64 bit Windows 10?
32 bit windows, 64 bit APU
Can i run wizard101 on here somone please reply
I have the same thing butt it messed up when I got it
Anyone have a teardown video
Does it work with paladins?
Ahmad Harraz Yes, if you have GeForce now.
Im debating on buying this from walmart or amazon
Both works but if you can pick it up from Walmart I recommend you do.
Anyone used it long term? And can it be used for drawing. I do digital art not pro or anything and on a budget. Looking at the Galileo 11.5 screen one. I've seen mixed reviews and don't want to buy one if doesn't work. I would use for streaming, internet drawing and listening to music.
love it I was cunfuse at first but you cleared things up
could i play runescape or other flash games?
Stephen Kessel yes, you can play roblox Minecraft runescape, and flash games.
I just bought one and the screen is defective. looks like rca is cutting corners and not doing QC checks. I read a lot of reviews of others with lots of issues. taking it back hopefully enchange for one that is not defective.
***** I took it back, went to Fry's electronics and picked up a nexus 7. Problem solved lol
+Derek Perez Yeah but that's an Android tablet, and the Cambio is a 2 in 1 Windows device...kind of a big difference there lol
+mog dor I'm aware... I have a computer with Windows and for the price a Windows tablet just isn't worth it, I'm not wanting to pay triple the price as a android for a decent tablet plus I have office programs on android
can u do d iview i896qu please
