Impression Tablet TSV
Has anyone ordered the new Impressions 9.7 inch screen tablet that aired as a TSV on August 28th? What’s your opinion if you did order one? Do you think it may be better than the Next7, also if anyone receives theirs before mine’s (sept 8th), let me know what you think about it. Thanks.

I just got mine yesterday and I have to say that I’m pleased with it. It’s nice and sturdy and the screen is beautiful. I just took my time and followed the directions and everything so far is working wonderfully. The paper peeled off okay. I didn’t have the glue stuck to the device like so many others complained about. No, it’s not an IPAD, but it works for my needs. And no, it doesn’t come with the android market, but I downloaded the Amazon Apps Store and I can say that I am pleased. They have mostly all the apps that I have on my phone and I have the HTC Evo 4G. For me the set up was easy and the wi-fi works just fine. So, in my opinion, if you are looking to save a little money, I would give this a try. It’s sturdy, the screen is beautiful, and it doesn’t cost a lot of money. Like I said, this is not an Ipad, but it’s not bad for the price.

We ordered it and love it. We are very much computer people here were only 2 in the house but have 3 laptops and 2 desktops but we love having this to carry around with us instead of 17 inch laptops. We downloaded the Dr suess books for my grandson and he loves them. He watches them till he falls asleep. Just like the other poster said. Manage your apps. Shut down what your not using and you wont have any problems. I removed the edges of the paper from off of the screen with no problem just take your time peeling them off. For the price I say it is a great little tablet. I love the fact I can add more storage room if I need to.

They even totally removed it from their listing. Most likely due to all the negative reviews. There were tons of 1 star reviews the last time I looked. Typically the item is removed from the listing when the product is sold out and not available to be ordered. I doubt if the reviews had anything to do with the item being removed. Same thing happened with the Nextbook 7P.

Well I just came back from sending mine back. It was horrible. I wasn’t buying it for me but couldn’t give garbage like that away as a gift. I have an iPad and a motorola xoom. Both of them are stellar compared to the impression tablet.

After having bad luck with 2 Next 7P tablets that both failed to boot up after 3 weeks, I decided to give this a try. So far, the tablet has been working well. I wasn’t sure that I wanted a big screen but so far, I find it more pleasing to not have to expand all the web page content as I did on the 7 inch Nextbook. One thing to remember is that this is not a computer. There is no memory management. In fact, most apps continue to run if you change screen to run some other app. You have to use your app manager to kill those apps not being used. If you don’t, it will definitely hang or freeze or whatever you call it because there is no memory available for it to run. Also, be aware that in order to power unit on, you have to press and HOLD the power button until it comes on. To power off, you have to hold the power button, and select the power off options on the next 2 screens, otherwise the tablet will be in standby which will drain your battery although the screen will be blank. I hope this information helps someone who is still evaluating their purchase. Remember, HSN is the seller and has no technical knowledge if you are having problems. Either call the product support or send it back to HSN. BTW, the sticky cardboard can be removed. Not a real reason to not like the tablet. LOL

For the price its not that bad. Its much than the other tablets HSN has (Coby netbook) Only problem I have is that u cant get android marketplace. Which u need to download facebook and HSN app. Someone at HSN messed up big time, selling a product were u cant get there own app. Got QVC app download fine. Email setup very easy wifi also easy. May just keep and give to my Dad to play his card games on. Saw my nieces ipad wants one for his birthday(91 in Dec) told my sister just to play games is not for him. This would b just fine. Might just let sister get him ipad and switch with him LOL :-$ Hope she doesnt see this.[-( :-# ;-);

Looking the the reviews for it so far, it doesn’t look good.
My parents ordered this without asking my opinion first, but haven’t received it yet. I’m hoping it will be ok because I’m getting very sick of having to take the time to neatly package up things and send it back due to salesmen selling snake oil.
There ARE many reasons why the iPad is so popular, despite all the distorted claims by the HSN hosts. The iPad is not hype, its true quality (and I hate Apple as a company).

Make sure you charge it 12 hours before first use. Also when turning it on hold the power button in until it powers on. I really like mine.

Mine wouldn’t even turn on when I pushed the on button!!!! Needless to say, I am returning it. Customer service was very helpful, though and I don’t have to pay to return it or the case. Cheap isn’t always better.](*,) ](*,) ](*,)
