Buy Samsung Galaxy S2 Tablet 8"

[Deleted User]

Hello - I an thinking ahead of Christmas and would be interested in this Samsung Tablet as a special gift.

John Lewis have it SM-T710NKTUEB for £299.95 and Samsung website have SM-T719NZKEBTU for £379 - both 32 GB. Android 6 Marshmallow, I think.

Would there be any difference as the numbers are slightly different, please? I understand that no one can be sure in advance, but does anyone think there may be a better offer at ' Black Friday' time?

This would be a big 'one off expensive' gift and I would really appreciate any advice or comments, please.

Thank you. Crimson

The more expensive one is 4G ... i.e. You can put a mobile sim in it and use it while out and about. Of course that costs extra so it's up to you. No idea what deals will be available, but it does seem popular at the current price. Also the tab s3 is due for release 'soon' so discounts may happen then.

Everyone seems to think that prices are going down or get a bargain in the sales. Not so, as Sterling has depreciated at over 20% across the board against other currencies, this will only feed in as higher prices between now and Feb 2017.

Thank you very much for the information, the replies and the interesting links. I may go for the John Lewis one but I' ll give myself a few more days to think over your replies again - thank you.
