Third-party reviews

What customers like about UMIDIGI G5 Tab Kids

  • A 6000 mAh battery carries a child through a long stretch of videos and games.
  • App tracking protection limits what apps can follow.
  • App offloading frees storage without deleting app data.
  • A dynamic theme lets a child pick a look for the screen.
  • An FM radio gives a second way to listen without streaming.
  • Split-screen mode lets two apps run side by side.

What customers don't like about UMIDIGI G5 Tab Kids

  • At 149 ppi, text and pictures look soft up close.
  • Its single shader unit limits how well demanding games run.
  • There is no panorama mode in the camera app.
  • There is no keyboard accessory for typing.
  • Updates come for only a short period, so the software will age sooner.

Verdict

Built for young children, the UMIDIGI G5 Tab Kids pairs a 10.1-inch screen with a 6000 mAh battery, which is the main reason to pick it. A child can watch and play for a long time before it needs a charge. What sets it apart is the kids side of the software. App tracking protection limits what apps can follow, app offloading frees storage without deleting app data, and a dynamic theme lets a child choose a look. The trade-off is the screen. At 149 ppi text and pictures look soft up close, and the 1280×800 resolution makes small print hard to read. Updates come for only a short period. It suits parents who want a first tablet for long days of watching and playing, and who care more about battery than sharp detail.
