         Slide is a low budget tablet with a good hardware under the hood but the performance was not seen upto the expectation. USB on the go is really a good advantage but the absence of sim slot forces the user to buy USB dongle for internet access other than Wi-Fi. The touch screen was also not so smooth to use. So overall if you consider the tablets in the market you will get better tablets for the same price.
