Cheap Tablet

Hi,
I am after a cheap tablet for OH - he watches YouTube and iPlayer on it. Plays the odd game of suduko and adds rubbish to the watch list on eBay.
I have seen this tablet on WOWCHER for £39.
Is it worth it ? Any good ?
Will I be able to buy 20GB sim and stick it in it ?
Any help would be great cheers - trying to have the cheapest Xmas possible.

I woild avoid this cheap & nasty tab
Try and get one at least 16G B memory tablet
Look at Lenovo 16GB tabs on ebay and pay a little bit more

Thank you, I don't really use WOWCHER and wasn't sure if it was heavily discount or just cheap rubbish.
Will check out the Lenovo.0 -

If you hang around until Black Friday, Amazon might have their Fire 7 inch tablet at £35 like last year, and the others will likely be discounted.0

Unfortunately we don't have a high quality budget tablet recently.
1) Resolution: 600 x 1024
If you would read text intensively, this won't be ideal
2) Memory 1GB
1GB may not be enough
I had searched a 7 inch tablet for my RSS E book reader (and general use) I ended up to get a second hand NEXUS 7 2013 (2nd Generation), you would be surprised with the quality of this 3-4 years old Tablet, which is far far better quality than the latest budget one.
Nexus 7 (2013)
Resolution : 1920 x 1200 (323 ppi) as twice as finer than Amazon Fire / Lenovo TAB3
Memory 2GB
If you don't mind getting a second hand one, I would seriously recommend Google Nexus 7 (2013, not confused with 2012 version) You would get around 50 pound via Gumtree etc.
