Mercury mTab NEO 2 Review

Mercury hasn’t really hit their stride in the tablet arena and their previous two offerings – the mTab and mTab NEO really failed badly where it mattered most and that’s the display quality. Fitting a bad display in a tablet is like ruining the steering of a car, it’s never going to feel good no matter how many features it may have. Hopefully they have learned their lesson with the mTab NEO 2. Let’s see if it’s any better.Design and Build The design and build of the tablet hasn’t changed much except that now it sports a full black colour scheme from back to front. The glossy finish leads to terrible finger prints all over the tablet which is a nightmare to get rid of. The build quality is not too bad and there aren’t many creaking parts. The plastics used also seem to be quite decent with very little flex when pressed. It’s still a chunky tablet but thankfully is lighter than the previous offerings. There’s a physical button in the front like the iPad which takes you a step back instead of taking you to the home screen directly. We also have a front facing VGA camera.
