E Fun’s Nextbook NXW8QC16G is a contender in the lowest-end Windows tablet segment. This $150 slate has an 8″ display at 1280×800 pixels and the basic but usable for everyday tasks Intel Atom Z3735G quad-core processor. Unfortunately, the screen is based on TN panel technology, so it can’t provide as wide viewing angles as the IPS displays. RAM and storage are on the small side, with 1GB and 16GB capacity, respectively. These massively limit usability of pre-installed Windows 8.1. In this case, hardware can handle only very basic computing with a small numbers of browser tabs and apps opened simultaneously and you can install a very limited number of apps from the Windows Store. At least, you can expand storage via a microSD card slot with up to 64GB.

With the specs and price, (especially Black Friday $50 discount at Walmart), the Nextbook NXW8QC16G competes against the 100-dollar HP Stream 7 with a 7″ display. The Stream 7 is equipped with IPS and 32GB storage, but the Nextbook adds a micro HDMI video output as an extra feature.

The tablet has dual cameras. The rear cam sports a 2MP sensor, while the front shooter has a 0.3MP one. There are Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections and a micro USB port. The battery has a capacity of 4000 mAh. We have no info on battery life nor dimensions and weight of the slate.

A free 1-year subscription for Office 365 Personal software suite is included in price.

E Fun offers a 10.1″ variant too. It is definitely a better buying choice, since it delivers 32GB of internal storage and a keyboard dock for only $30 more.

    I dont even own one of these things, but just try fixing something that went wrong….Good Luck…there is virtually no support for these pieces of sh*t….I encourage you to stay far far away from these thing…they are not worth the headache

  5. Martha Robinson –

    I need to have the charger port replaced. My regular computer repairman said he couldn’t do it that it would have to be sent back to the factory. Need info on what to do.

  6. Arlyn –

    I buy this window tablet 16gb. But in a few days i use it. 49 percent of remaining battery, when shut off. Another days, it’s shut off again even 60 percent of battery left. It’s only 15 days when i buy it. May i know what is the problem of my tablet? Thanks

  7. Ravi –

    Thank you Dawn your solution worked.

    At the password screen tap the icon in the lower left corner then hit on screen keyboard. Make it bigger by stretching from lower left corner. Hit shift 30-40 times then hit the power icon in the right corner of the screen then hit restart. Then it should take u to the options to troubleshoot then factory reset. It worked for me.

  8. John –

    I tried hard reseting my tablet by holding volume down and power but no screen poped up just went str8 to the password screen

  9. Susan –

    • Danijel Z –

      That appears to be a common problem with this Nextbook. I advise you to contact their or your seller’s support and ask for a solution.

    MELISSA –

    how do i do a hard factory reset i forgot my password

    • Danijel Z –

      Generally, you can enter the factory reset feature on all Windows 8 tablets by holding Volume Down key while powering on the tablet (Power + Volume Down). Then choose Troubleshoot option on the screen and tap Reset PC option. I assume you know your personal files will be lost after the reset.

    • John –

      Does not work…..does the same thing as holding volume up also. or home key….ive tried it all…there has got to be a solution somewhere…..

    • Dawn –

      At the password screen tap the icon in the lower left corner then hit on screen keyboard. Make it bigger. Hit shift til it locks then hit the power icon in the right corner of the screen then hit restart. Then it should take u to the options to troubleshoot then factory reset. It worked for me.

    • John –

      Dawn you’re a flipping genious….the only one in the tech world that had the solution…..you’re awesome

    • Ted –

    thanks
    J

    • Danijel Z –

      The tablet has a TN-based LCD panel as opposed to IPS, so color inversion at certain viewing angles is usual.

  12. TAMMY YOST –

    MY notebook will not power up what can I do?

    • Danijel Z –

      Are you maybe referring to the Netxbook 10.1?http://laptoping.com/specs/product/nextbook-nxw10qc32g/
      In the Q&A section of that page, you can see other folks have problems with powering up, too. Solution is still unknown. It appears to be a wide-spread problem, so I would recommend contacting your seller and ask for support.

  13. Marie –

  16. Sonny S –

    Can the internal 1gb memory be upgraded to more memory?

    • Danijel Z –

      No, unfortunately. RAM isn’t upgradeable on the NextBook and other similar tablets.

  17. Barbara Sharp –

    Can use use a headset and listen to books on this device? We gave wifi will this work without additional charges.

    • Danijel Z –

      Yes, it has a standard 3.5mm audio jack you can find on virtually all modern tablets and laptops. So you’ll be able to listen books and music. The tablet uses Wi-Fi connection to get you online, so if you already have working Wi-Fi, you will not need any other additional connection and accomanying costs.
