Cheap Tablet

cezairs

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.

It's not even that good.

The Lenovo isn't a bad shout from ballyblack. I might suggest an Amazon Kindle Fire too? There's some cheaper models of that which will do for an entry level tablet.

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.

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.
