go tab lite V Go clever r104

Hope someone can give me some advice. I am looking for a cheap tablet - mainly for reading pdfs and web browsing. I have an offer of the go clever tablet above but the vendor wants to swap it for the go tab lite (9 inch) and says it's an upgrade........
Has anyone got any opinions on which of these would be better (I know they are no ipads!!) - which has the best viewing angle etc considering I will be reading on it

Thanks

    Go Clever R104 has 1GB RAM. 1024 x 600
    Go Tab lite has 512MB only. 800 x 480

    processor Rockchip RK2928 vs ARM A13, which would be similar.

    Go Clever is better.

    No comment on viewing angle, it didn't say on spec.

    Edit: you don't need ipad to get good viewing angle. There are other tablet has Retina screen. But you will be looking at £150 - 200 and not uk brand

    the tesco one looks good but only a 7" screen and I'm looking for a bigger screen for the pdfs I need to read. (Also neither are available in Ireland yet!)

    Have you looked at a Nook HD+? The 16GB model is fairly cheap now and can be expanded with micro SD if needed and it has a 9 inch 1080p screen although processor performance can be a bit sluggish.
