It depends on what you are buying a device for. If it's for watching movies and reading the single core will work. If you want to play the latest video games then it's to slow.

But at $200 what do you expect? If you want the latest processor get a higher end tablet.

You really can't expect these companies to go tow-to-tow with Amazon when Amazon is losing money on each tablet sold (so the BOM says).
