Recently, Verizon Wireless provided me with my very first tablet to try out. I was a little nervous, because, as I have mentioned before, I am not the biggest fan of the Windows operating system. However, the Nokia Lumia 2520, was awesome! This tablet was always connected & worked for me while I was on the go. I was able to manage work and personal documents with Microsoft® Office and Outlook®. My 7 year old daughter could enjoy movies, photos, e-books and games-even when outside-on a vivid 10.1-inch full HD screen that adjusts to the lighting around you. Most importantly it took crisp photos in low light and video chat in HD. I will admit, the size was adequate, as I did have to bring my larger purse to fit it in, but it is a tablet! It is one of the best tablets for seniors that runs on the Windows operating system.
