Review – My New Verizon Ellipsis™ 7 Tablet #VZWBuzz

by Melissa Stewart

Disclosure: I was provided the Ellipsis 7 tablet by Verizon to facilitate my review.

I’m part of the Verizon #VZWBuzz Lifestyle Blogger team and I recently received the new Ellipsis 7 tablet to review. I meant to have this review up last week but I was having too much fun with my new Verizon Ellipsis 7 to put it down and write a post!

This is my first tablet. Really. I have my Droid Ultra and my laptop and my Mac mini but until now, no tablet!

So I was excited to see what I’ve been missing.

It’s a fun little tablet, easy to use and easy to tuck into my purse and carry along. I’m a long time Android user so getting my Ellipsis set up was a piece of cake. I was signed on and adding apps in 5 minutes flat.

The size is “just right”. The 7″ HD screen is big enough to read my eBooks, play my apps, and tweet my little heart out, while still being small enough to carry everywhere. Another plus (because it’s so similar in size to the iPad Mini) is that many of the iPad Mini cases are a perfect fit for my Ellipsis!

Things I love about this tablet:

• 12 hour usage time
• Verizon’s 4G LTE network. Stay connected without worry
• TONS of Android Apps on Google Play
• 7″ HD display (crisp image and colors)
• Size. Very similar to a iPad Mini which makes it OH SO portable
