The Acer Iconia Tab 8 is a piece of electronic crap. This very pricey tablet can't hold a candle to the Asus ZenPad. Most times, Kindle won't stat. Apps are always crashing and generally the tablet is very slow. I wish that I could get my money back!!!!!

Sound on this tablet is absolutely rubbish.
No firmware update what so ever.
It even has problems with Google apps like YouTube.

Anyone knows how to get the tablet to recognize my 16 gig SD card? I have tried all the tricks in the world...nada!!!!! I like everything about this tablet, just to have it recognize my SD card and I will be happy.

Rubbish! I haven't even had it 3 months & it's been back to Acer twice.
First time was for a defective WiFi unit & second was it's inability to charge. Was contacted by Acer to tell me that the charging adapter was faulty & it's not covered under warranty, did I want to buy one from them? Told them to shove it, I'll get one from Ebay.
Build quality is poor, very flimsy feeling & inferior quality plastics used.
Sound quality is negligible, touch screen not very responsive & navigation is slow, avoid!

I posted in January that my A840 couldn't be turned on after trying all the tricks of the trade ..I reported that it had to be sent in for repair... Came back fine only to have the same problem within about a week. This time Acer paid shipping both ways, repaired it again ... Switch problem seemed to be cured BUT the screen was distorted. So sent back for repair a third time ...a week has gone by but am still waiting for its return!
My Acer phone seems to be fine now .. Afer being returned once for repair.
So far our A830 is still fine ... Sorry we bought the A840.

Using larger than 32GB does work...sort of. I tried this with one of my 64GB Samsung SD cards, it scrambled/lost some data when I put the SD card back into my Galaxy S5.

I got an Acer Iconia Tab 8 in around June 2015. It worked perfectly until recently. Around Christmas, it wasnt really holding a charge for that long. Now the night before last I put my tablet on the charger and i woke up this morning to find that it didnt charge at all. So i switched to a different charger and it seemed to be working, but after 12 hours it only charged to at most 35%. Last night it didnt charge at all. What is going on and how can I fix it?!

Anonymous, 24 Jan 2016Have both an A830 which works perfectly so far ...and A840 ... moreI've got a different problem. It is constantly saying, "plugged in, not charging." At certain points, I can get it to charge for about thirty seconds to five minutes. There is only one charger that doesn't do this, and I rarely have access to it. Does anyone else have this problem?

Have both an A830 which works perfectly so far ...and A840 .. Had the same problem ..... unable to turn it on .. Tried all the tricks of the trade .. Nothing. Contacted Acer they weren't able to help me either so had no choice but to send it in for repair. Had to pay the shipping which I felt unfair however they paid for the return. It has now been repaired and in good working order ...so far so good. Took approx 10 days.Nowhaving read so many reviews from A840 owners this is obvious a faulty mofdel.Acer how
about doing a recall and rectifying this issue for once and for all?
Btw, the same week I had an issue with my Acer phone .. Had to spend another $8 + shipping and had the inconvenience of being without a phone. Repair and shipping was however done within a few days.
My faith in Acer products is dwindling.

just bought this tablet a month ago. the battery life is so poor like playing it with full charge and dries up after playing about 4 hour HD games. the rear camera and the video is so poor like the gyro sensor ruining it but the front camera is fine. the gameplay is smooth and nice. if you're looking for tablet that is good for playing but poor battery and camera, I recommend this.
