Tablet

Looking for a good cheap tablet, that I can use a keyboard on.

I've read reviews on the cheap ones and they all seem to be really slow, or just good for internet browsing?

Thanks in advance.

Keyboard + Good + cheap nope need to move away from cheap .

Need to define cheap! Plus how fast do you need it?



Which? reports a few don't buy tablets and nearly all the budget ones have some sort of drawback. What will you be doing that justifies a fast tablet and what is your budget for tablet and keyboard?- only asking to put your question in context for people to provide answers

Regarding external keyboards:


I have not got experience of them but wireless (bluetooth) and usb external keyboards are advertised, some expensive (same price as cheapest tablets!) but others seem very reasonable. Such as https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bluetooth-Keyboard-Samsung-Galaxy-Tablet/dp/B00S9TSN4Y/ref=sr_1_4?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1538054552&sr=1-4&refinements=p_n_feature_browse-bin%3A4895588031&th=1
. That page will allow you also to select filters for different models of tablet. There will be other suppliers.



I would suggest that you check full compatibility and maybe buy together with the tablet specifying that required compatibility of hardware and software!


Some I have seen are US keyboard so check if you want UK keyboard layout.


Hopefully someone with practical experience or more knowledge will post for you.

I think that currently Amazon Fire Tablet is the best for the price - and you can use Bluetooth keyboards
