04-11-2024I had HIGH Hopes for this unit.. but to be honest, it just let me down really. The applications are limited, you cant even open Facebook on the app without using a Web Browser? Not really sure why that is the case... the applications you can download are VERY limited. However, if you are using this just as a communication platform with friends and family, its pretty good! The camera feature that follows and focuses in on you cant seem to be adjusted though unless you are in a certain mode. Its very annoying when you are speaking to someone and the camera sees your dog and then zooms in on the dogs or whatever. However, I do like the speakers and the Alexa integration, but seriously.. Facebook needs to put some Steve Jobs into this as it needs some TLC people! As I said, I had such high hopes for this and its a great start.... but just needs some extra something, especially for the cost. Just my 2 cents. It is a nice option for alexa and calling if you want it on your kitchen counter.. but to be a show stopper, it needs some work .. especially in the application aspect(s). Reminds me of the first Amazon Kindle.. good start but sure needed help... lets just hope this unit gets the help it deserves and the potential it can reach!

> 3 dayLove that it has a big screen. Best part of all its features is that as I walk around the room camera follows me. I plan to buy a second one for kitchen later.

> 3 dayMy son got one to be able to talk to his dad and stepmother who live states away. Surprisingly bigger than expected and quite pleased with the quality and clarity. Only reason I did 4 stars was because it doesnt allow photos, it said personal photos are not supported on this device

> 3 dayWe really like our portal but it needs a little more fine tuning. Even in a normal volume room it has a hard time hearing you. There has been several times we have needed total silence before Portal or Alexa can respond properly.

> 3 dayI use this for correcting online college papers. Nice display, nice presentation. The base kinda cuts down on the move-it-around-the-desktop-ability, but thats OK.

> 3 dayWhen I spoke with people at the store it was my understanding that I would be able to hook and connect up with my existing Amazon speakers throughout the house. So far that doesn’t seem to work otherwise it’s a great product.
