The Nokia T20 Android tablet can be used by kids or adults. It makes a great media consumption device for reading and movies.

The Nokia T20 has a simple enough design with rounded corners. Overall it's a nondescript slab like most tablets are. Its main distinguishing mark is its blue metal back. This blue from Nokia comes as an easy win. It's not flashy, but it is attractive and feels nice to hold. Maybe its choice of color feels bold in stark contrast to's dull use of color on its iPads. Though the back of the T20 is a fingerprint magnet, if you're curious.

I found the back 8 MP camera also to be lackluster. It's there for random snapshots if you need it. The cameras can do portrait mode and apply filters, but ultimately its optics are completely forgettable. Unlocking the tablet using my face was very unreliable in my experience. Sometimes it worked without any effort, but mostly it didn't work before I needed to input my code manually.While holding the tablet in landscape, there are speakers on the left and right.

I should note that along one of the narrow sides of the screen were several dead pixels on my review unit. At first, it looked like dust or dirt that would wipe away; upon closer inspection, the mark was under the glass. As long as this isn't indicative of the quality of the T20 tablets being sold, I think this can be dismissed as a one-off flaw.

I'm not a fan of purposefully giving kids inferior technology. I don't think they should be subjected to laggy, buggy and second-tier experiences simply because something is"made for kids." I haven't gotten that sense from this tablet. In my observation, my daughter used the T20 without complaints of glitches or issues navigating the things she wanted to do. This is a tablet meant for anyone that may be a good fit for kids 6 years and older.
