RCA Cambio 10 Review

On Christmas I received the RCA Cambio 10, tablet with keyboard.  I had put it on my Christmas list because I wanted something portable, lightweight and able to use for downloading photos without having to carry my full size laptop.

Folded shut, keyboard protects the screen.

Open as a laptop.

Following are some specs:

Windows 10
Intel Z3735 Processor
2GB Ram
6 Hour Battery Life
1xDC in
1xMicrophone
1xHeadset
1xMini HDMI
1xMicro USB 2.0
1xUSB 2.0
SD Card Slot for additional Storage.  I have a 64GB in this for storage.

I have used this now nearly every day since Christmas and it performs very well. It runs very fast and plays videos well.  I have done a little experiment and downloaded iTunes onto the machine.  It took up a great deal of space on the internal storage, however it did not slow it down.  I have also downloaded Microsoft Movie Maker.  I don't plan to store much on the machine, but on vacation I will be able to download my video and photos and do some editing.

Loaded in the apps is Microsoft Excel, Word and Powerpoint as read only apps.  The keyboard is small and is very difficult to do any regular typing.  I can type quick enough by only using a couple of fingers.  But with only have read only on Microsoft it is really not an issue.

The mouse pad is a little sensitive, but still works well.  I can also use a standard mouse via the USB.  I have not detached the tablet from the keyboard as I really prefer a laptop.

I need to purchase a MiniHDMI to HDMI cable so that I can test how this will work for playing movies/video on the TV.  I have connected USB and moved photos back and forth and it works well.

So if you are looking for something small and portable for web browsing and other tasks you can not beat this Windows tablet for the price.

Summer Vacation Day 4: The ER

Day four started out with beautiful weather.  We had breakfast and Michelle took Brendan fishing.  I decided I would take a ride on the bike and do a little recon for a family bike ride. I set off east to ride toward Rapid River.  I rode around the the edge of the bay and took a few pictures. Dunes on the edge of Gladstone. This was around 4-5 miles out of town in a small subdivision. The photo above is of a small river I crossed, unfortunately I cannot remember the name.  I thought I found a bike trail that would be nice for all of us.  Unfortunately it was swampy and not kept up.  I headed back to Gladstone and met Michelle and Brendan out on the fishing dock. I sat with them for a while and Brendan caught this. This is a Gobi.  An invasive species of the Great Lakes. After a few minutes I started back to the house.  On the way I started to have some chest pain.  After showering it had not let up. ...

Summer Vacation: Day 8, Marquette

Day out started out cool, cloudy and windy.  It would stay like that the entire day.  After Michelle got up we took a little walk in the park by the bay.  It was very cool and returned to the house.  The plan for the day was to go to Marquette to visit Raymond and his family and have dinner with them. I received a text from Raymond that informed me the weather was not good there and it had not been for the entire week.  It had been very cold and windy.  He told me to bring warm clothes and we would probably be inside. We arrived at there location just after 3:00pm and it was cold and windy.  They told us it had been worse earlier in the day.  After talking for a while Angel started to make burgers and hot dogs on the grill.  We walked down to the beach with Raymond to discover that the beach was not really there.  The water has been so high this year and the waves were coming in so hard there was no beach.  They said they h...

May 2017

May has been an interesting month.  The downside had been having pneumonia.  That took some time to recover from.  I am back to normal and starting to ride again.  I purchased a set of Jones SG Loop H-Bar for the Vortex.  A very nice improvement to this bike. https://www.densbikepost.com/blog/  You can use the link above to see my posts on this. We had a nice Mother's day celebration with both of our mom's and Michelle. Sorry no pictures, they are still on my phone. We did not do anything for Memorial weekend.  Not completely true, we bought a pool.  It will be installed sometime in June. That pretty much covers May.  School will be out at the end of this week and Summer officially starts.
