it was only a matter of time before a manufacturer put a tablet in an oven but just because they could does it mean that they should with this de chord range from the discovery IQ line I don't think it was the best idea to put an Android tablet right into the body of this other you see it works too full on one ends you have a full-blown Android tablet that runs on Ice Cream Sandwich which is a pretty old operating system on another end you have a touchscreen that controls the ovens basic functions as far as a controlled touchscreen for the oven the tablet works great it's easy to find out which oven setting I need to use to make the perfect dish and there's even a guided cooking section that allows me to learn from the oven how I need to cook a particular dish like a chicken or another cut of meat but as a tablet that outdated Android system is really the downfall of this technology some of the apps I wanted to download such as Pinterest which would have been great to have on a tablet so I can access recipes and things like that couldn't even download because the Android operating system was so outdated then the tablet was a little finicky apps such as YouTube were slow to load or didn't load at all or would sometimes even crash which really got in the way if you wanted to pull up a video such as how to stir-fry vegetables that would really be helpful in having a tablet right in your oven having a tablet in an oven can be really useful it gives you resources for when you're cooking but it can also connect you to an app to give you alerts when your food is ready or when timers have gone off but the way it stands now with this de corte range the technology just isn't quite there yet and this range costs nine thousand dollars which is asking a lot for a slow tablet built into a pretty good oven
