Great little tablet by thisnicknameistaken562 on bestbuy.com Jan 16, 2012
I picked this up on Black Friday for $one-sixty (yes, I actually received my purchase, no problem!). My wife was wanting a Kindle, but I jumped on the sale. Fears about the screen resolution were unwarranted - it looks great, and reading books is not ...
 
great product by graydiyer on staples.com Sep 21, 2011
I got it for casual use (email & web surfing) while away from the house. But it's so fast I'm using it at home too. Touch screen is amazing - type as fast as you can touch (it responds to the lightest touch). And the intuitive menus are vey user friendly. ...
 
Hidden gem by BigPhil on tigerdirect.com Aug 24, 2011
The Dell Streak7 is really a great deal ,compare to other 7''. Dell has made it official and they are rolling out the OS upgrade to HC3.0, which will unleash the full power of the tablet. Too bad Dell did such a poor marketing job on the Streak 7 , because ...
 
Dell Streak7 by Back4More on amazon.com Jul 4, 2011
As a tablet goes this Dell Streak7 is fast. It has the Tegra 2 processors by Nvidia. The screen res is lower than the galaxy tab but the performance of the dell blows it away. It comes with android 2.2.2 installed and will be upgraded to Honeycomb (3.0) ...

Dell Streak 7 tablet review (Wired UK)
Its latest volley in the skirmish is the Dell Streak 7, an overgrown version of the 13cm (5-inch) tablet it kinda-sorta released last year...And in most ways the Streak 7 is a typical Dell affair: foolishly overdesigned in an attempt to stand out, and coming up short all around...The weird slopes and baffling button placement of the Streak 7 make it less comfortable to hold and far less pretty than the Tab...It's bad enough that the 800 x 480 display looks visibly chunky, but the viewing angle is so poor that moving your head even a few degrees from dead centre creates a screen-door effect so bad that it borders on nauseating...Other drawbacks are palpable but pale next to the screen debacle: The Streak 7 can't charge at all via USB -- not even trickle charge...

Dell Streak 7 Android Tablet Hands-On Preview - HotHardware
Regardless, the Streak 7 offers some pluses over the Galaxy Tab, like its 5MP rear-facing camera, but also comes up short in other areas such as its lower resolution display, with an 800x480 native resolution versus the Galaxy Tab's 1024x600 display...The Dell Streak 7 also has NVIDIA's Tegra 2 dual-core 1GHz processor under its hood for a rather snappy Android 2.2 experience while we wait hopefully on Dell's migration to Honeycomb...We're planning on putting together a full, detailed review for you in the days ahead but thought you'd enjoy this early sneak peek of the new Dell Streak 7...I really liked the part where you showed the difference between the viewing angles...those can come in the conclusion...

Dell Streak 7 Android tablet • reghardware...Now we have version 2.0 with a 7in screen, a 1GHz dual-core CPU, Android 2.2 and a much more realistic sub-£300 price tag, £100 less than its unloved 5in sibling would have set you back at launch around 12 months ago...It’s made entirely of plastic though, so it doesn’t feel quite as slick as the, admittedly, more expensive HTC device...
