Fellow Savers,
Can someone recommend a value-for-money tablet for a 10 year old.
All i want is something that will improve his education.
Cheers
Kay

The Tesco Hudl tablet gets generally very good reviews and is good value for money, with the advantage of having a major retailer as backup should a problem develop.Can someone recommend a value-for-money tablet for a 10 year old.
In that case, have you considered Chromebooks? They're more expensive than the Hudl and similar tablets, but you get a larger screen and a proper keyboard which is better for typing schoolwork.All I want is something that will improve his education.

Or if he is very technically minded and already quite knowledgeable about the internals of computers, maybe a Raspberry Pi? (Probably more suitable for someone a bit older though)

to answer the OP, have a look at this, he's only 10 after all

full play store access too. I've got bigger version, and it's good. At that price, not too bad if it does get dropped/damaged/broken
3 and a half of these for the cost of one hudl...........Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple
