Whatever you want to do on a smart tablet, the Mag&Read Tablet makes it easy and accessible.
The Mag&Read Tablet includes a powerful HD video magnifier and reader. It can magnify your reading materials as well as scan printed text and read it back to you aloud. There is also an accessible book reader and numerous other special features for people with visual impairment. You can even watch movies, listen to internet radio and enjoy other options for entertainment.
