Save your money
Do not buy this tablet for your child. It’s not a matter of if it will break—it’s when. If it breaks after Target’s 90-day return window, LeapFrog will not help you. Customer support repeatedly sends their return policy, which clearly states they will not replace the screen, the most common part to break. On top of that, most repair shops won’t even work on LeapFrog tablets because of how they’re constructed. So you end up spending $120+ on a tablet that’s essentially unusable within a year. I think LeapFrog is a great company overall, but this is extremely frustrating and feels sketchy. You’re honestly better off buying an iPad or Android tablet and adding parental controls than investing in a kids’ tablet that may only last five or six months.

Kind of disappointed
It seems like a great learning tablet however I was bummed out I couldn’t change it to a different language. My 4 year old is bilingual, I tried to change the language however found out I couldn’t.

Screen not durable
Screen broke within 2 days after christmas, was pretty disappointed since its advertised to be kid proof. I did contact leapfrog but it falls under accidental break so they couldn't help. Pretty expensive gift that lasted 2 days.

Failed by leapfrog
This tablet requires way too much to even get started and once you create an account there’s all there fees for subscription and apps! And it’s super slow at downloading and use of features. Take’s so long to upload a game! Waste of time and money to be honest.

Joke.
I’m actually disappointed in this leap pad. You have to pay for the tablet obviously. Then once getting in- you pay a $30 subscription for the year- the apps included in this subscription are not that fun- you then go to purchase more apps and the apps are $10-$30? Non are free. This is a waste of money you might as well buy your child an iPad. ALSO non of the games that are included and what’s shown in the pictures of the kids playing? Yea joke.

Sucks
Waste of money you just have to buy in app purchases to use it which is about $40 per game

DO NOT BUY THIS FOR YOUR CHILD. This was highly recommended for our child, and the educational games were great for a while, although they were $6 a month. Our son has not broken anything in his life (he is a very gentle polite kid) and when we had company over, I walked out of a room and came back a second later and the screen had a small crack in it. Idk if someone stepped on it, but nobody banged it on anything. The tiny crack made half the screen stop working. Unlike normal tablets, the screen cannot be replaced or repaired. TOTAL SCAM. If you are going to do anything, just buy a cheap tablet and get a good case. It is way more durable than this would ever be.

Bad
Bad battery port! Began having issues within the first month with this tablet. Will have full charge and then shut off while still having full charge.

Disapointing
1 star is too generous if I’m being honest. I absolutely regret purchasing this. Without paying tons of extra money this “tablet” is essentially useless. They only provide the most basic games and activities and the rest you have to purchase a subscription or pay $10+ per game to keep. (Hoping the kid likes the game they pick). I really wanted to download games like Kahn academy or other educational games but can’t do that. I had hopes this tablet would have at least a few good learning games for numbers, letters etc. but nope. The tablet is also very slow and laggy. It wouldn’t be so bad if their store offered at least some free apps. I bought this for my 3 year old for his 4th birthday but I’m absolutely sure he will be too advanced for this at that point. And even now

Sold me a defective, used leappad
My daughter was getting upset that it lagged so much. It was making her so mad she didn’t want to play with it anymore. Only had it for 3 days and when I purchased it, the box was taped with scotch tape and it was hard for me to get into it. Had to factory reset it and that made it worse. I paid for a new, not one that someone had already. I ended up buying the same one on Amazon for $6 cheaper and there are no problems with it. If it’s leapfrog products that are messing up, then I’m going to contact the manufacturer. But if it was just Target trying to sell a defective item, then it is target’s fault for selling a defective item that was already purchased before.

Buyer beware
Item does not hold a charge after a few months. You have to pay for a lot of features. Not worth the money if after 3 months it is not usable

Review
Not a great product as far as the quality of the actual product for some reason this the third one I received and still don't work properly. The charger is poor quality!!!! The WARRANTY doesn't cover SCREEN DAMAGE !!!!! The actual educational system is great !!!!! When it works
