It's easy to pass on this Nextbook
For less than $200, this tablet comes with a keyboard. Is it too good to be true?
Partially. Take a closer look at the Nextbook Ares 11 by clicking through the slideshow and read the full review for all of the details.
Separate, but equal
The Ares 11 can be used as a standalone tablet, but it works best with the keyboard.
Just push it
The keyboard easily comes off by pressing the button at the top.
Smooth finish
The back of the tablet features a smooth matte finish that almost feels like suede.
Ports-a-plenty
The tablet houses many ports, and the keyboard adds two more USB 2.0 ports to the list.
A writer's perspective
Though the keyboard is a great addition, its functionality leaves a lot to be desired.
All of the lights
The keys don't light up, but the blue plastic around them does.
Props for the propped angle
When open like a laptop, the Ares 11 keyboard slightly lifts. This creates a comfortable typing angle.
Pretty profile
The blue accents give the Ares 11 a fashionable look.
Back buttons
The power, home and volume buttons are located on the back of the top edge of the laptop.
Small and functional keys
The keyboard is a bit crammed, but typing was still easy. The addition of the touchpad is a nice...touch.
