…to leave behind with a technophobe when we emigrate in the new year?

The Tesco Hudl2 was very well reviewed in Which magazine

But I’ve read that the Hudl isn’t that good for Skype?

How so?

Hudl2 works fine for Skype, was using it just a few hours ago

I’ve been using a cheap no name Android tablet at work for skype. While it works, the battery doesn’t last long and the microphone and speaker quality isn’t the best.

WHen paired with a headset things improve a little, but the whole experience leaves a lot to be desired; I still have not found a way to mute my mic with the button on my headset for example.

If the person is a technophobe, an iPad may be he best option, as they are the most user friendly in my experience.
