galaxy tab 3 offer here :

the 8inch with a £60 gift card seems the best for your budget as the 7 inch is underpowered and slow

I agree! its one of my favorite deals at the moment, the display on this tablet has to be seen its so vibrant non of the 7" tablets mentioned are close for viewing pleasure. Brilliant movie and browsing machine.

Someone said avoid Samsung because of bloatware - au contraire IMHO the Samsung apps are far nicer than the vanilla android ones, so much so that Google twisted Samsungs arm harshly to tone them down in future as it made Google look bad in its own little ego world. Any you don't like Settings - apps - disable and like the dirt with Cillit bang - its gone!

they are fast cores though, plenty quick enough for what the op wants, well it was for me when I tested it. Agree no hdmi could be stopper if the op specifically wanted to run it through a TV of course.

Having the same question here...
I'm going to buy a tablet and am going to use it not only for fun but for work when I'm out - I'm fed up carrying my laptop everywhere. Part of my work is in Google Drive, mainly Microsoft Word documents, sometimes PDF files and my work also requires writing in Cyrillic, so I should have a keyboard as well.

I've been thinking of Google Nexus 10 but then looked at Galaxy Note 10.1 and I loved the stylus you can write on the screen with - but it is a bit too expensive for me at the moment.

Is there anything else or any other tablet I should consider? Any advice is welcome and will be highly appreciated.
