A solid tablet with a large 10.1-inch screen, the 10 SE from Toshiba entered the mobile devices’ market at the end of 2012. Powered by Jelly Bean from Android and coming with a quad-core 1.5 GHz processor, this is the kind of device that will provide a lot of storage space – 16 GB in total, plus the micro SD card with 32 GB more. It also has BT version 3.0 and strong Wi-Fi, but it might not be the best one to use for taking photos, as it only has a 3.15 MP cam, as well as a 1.2 MP frontal one.
Having software problems with your tablet is something absolutely normal, and it happens even with the best of devices. You should not worry much if the Toshiba Excite 10 SE tablet needs to be hard reset to its default settings, as this is a quick a safe operation that will get you rid of any virus while reinstalling the OS. The same as you’d do with your laptop of PC, it is also necessary to go back to default soft on a tablet from time to time.
Please remember to make a backup, though, as all data will be erased. Given that this tablet comes with a pretty good storage capacity, you will need to transfer the 16GB of files to some safer place. The SD card can be used for this, but you can also take advantage of Google Cloud, since this device is powered by Android – find out more about it here.
