    What Motorola tablets? I didn't think they'd made one for a while. Give us a size and budget and we can recommend...

    Yes, it's not a bad phone for the price. The only reason I asked was because the newer one was out of your original budget zone.
    It should do all you need.
    Enjoy...:)

    I lost my phone a while back and sent an email around my work asking if anyone had an old phone I could borrow. By the time I got into work the next day there were 8 phones sitting on my desk (an iPhone, 3 x Samsung Ace, 2 x Moto G, Moto E, HTC)

    If you ever want a free/cheap second hand phone just ask in your work - someone is bound to have a reasonable one doing nothing.

    You're likely looking at old, slow, out of date tablets then. You'll struggle to get a decent 10" tablet for £100. I'd want to be using at least Android 5 at this point. Either go for 7 inch (Nexus 7 from Argos) or try a £150 budget, or do some good research before spending £100 on a 10".

    bought this a few months ago after my Nexus 7 expired

    It updated to Android 6 last week

    I avoid 2nd hand tablets as the battery could be on the way out

    made by Lenovo who also make the new Motorola G4 mobile
