I found the Oscal Pad 13 to be a pretty nice tablet overall, especially considering the target price of $159 (Sale Price). The build quality looks good and it comes with a case and stylus. Setup was straightforward like any modern Android device. The Doke OS software seems capable for basic tasks like web browsing with multiple tabs open. The cameras are decent enough for casual use. - Not Terrible by Goodmonkey |
