Versus touch tab 9 8gb v kindle fire

Could somebody help me please? I am looking to buy a cheap tablet for my son for Xmas. The versus touch tab 9 8 gb and the kindle fire are both £99 at the minute, which is better for general browsing and playing games like angry birds? Thank you so much, I am not very techie and don't want to waste my money on something that will disappoint.

    Specification of versus touchtab 9 not worth £99 IMO, and personally not highly recommend kindle fire as it lock to amazon.

    If you want cheap tablet from UK retailer under £100, have a look at Sunvision Cyclone Voyager at ebuyer. It should be faster than Kindle, but the screen is not as good.

    Or you could also consider Ployer Momo 7. You can find it under £100 at amamzon. But make sure you order from seller shipping from UK

    Hi , I've also got a budget of about £100 for a tablet - was thinking about the Blackberry playbook 16gb at currys for £108 - my dd would only be using it for surfing the web, facebook, looking at youtube - would this be any good ?
