[Closed] Cheap Android Tablet Recommendations???

Second hand Galaxy tab2 come in around the £100. IME it's really difficult to evaluate what's good or crap from the chinese cheap tablet market.

Have a look at the used ones on Amazon, I have 2 which have been much more reliable than the superpad that died after 3 months.

Cheers, I'll have a scout. The Ainol was OK apart from the comedy name, and we managed over a year out of it....

I know its a bit over budget: but Tesco Direct are / were selling refurbished Nexus 7's 16gb for ~ £119. One year warranty.

They seem to crop up regularily in their ebay store. They're currently only listing 32gb for £135.

Having had cheap "branded" Android before I'd never do that again.

Car phone warehouse are selling new nexus7 16g for £129.. 🙂

Nook HD, 79 quid, class leading screen. Possibly root it.

Bought one for my 7 year old daughter and it has been great so far.

The tablet has 8GB but can be expanded using a micro SD card.

The Android implementation is bit different from normal but it has run everyone so far and you could always root it to get a vanilla Android experience if desired.

I actually quite like the Nook version - it is really simple to create profiles for individual users and so limit what the kids can do.

The only issue is it does not have a camera so apps that use these are not supported.

Great reviews - worth a look I think.

If it's of any interest I'm selling my nexus 7 32gb for £75 plus postage

Where are u based fozzybear

I bought my parents an Acer Iconia B1 which has been great. I paid £100 off ebuyer back in April but I saw Argos outlet doing returns with warranty for £60 recently.

A branded one can be useful if you want to rent films etc as the rooted ones usually aren't allowed to do that

I quite like the look of the Nook HD, and it is rather bargainous; the only thing that puts me off is it apparently takes a non standard charger, rather than micro USB like everything else ever. Is this right? If so, is it a total pain in the rear?

Fozzy,

You have mail,

Cheers,

Steve

The Nook does have a non standard interface but the other end of the cable is a standard USB.

It has not been an issue for me as the Nook is used by my daughter so the charger stays mostly at home apart from holidays or weekends away.

If it was used by me then it might be a wee bit painful having to lug the special cable about but no different from an iPad.

I got an ASUS Iconia for 100 quid with 20 cashback, works ok. Had it for 4/5 months now and incidentally, that's how long it took before I actually got the 20 quid back in to my account - but I wasn't letting it go !

Bought my daughter an HP Slate from Tesco for £99, absolutely loves it. Not sure what the reviews say or what she uses it for but may be worth a look.

£35ish - see my post here

Hisense pro 7 are pretty good for the money too

Scan and Dabs are both selling gen 1 Nexus 7s for £95.

I know its not android but Mrs zip got her dad an iPad 1 off eBay for £105, its like new.
Far better than the new Samsung I got my dad for £100.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 you can have for £40. It came with my Samsung Note 3. Hardly use it. Few finger prints on it. Comes with box and charger.
