Groupon currently has the 16GB Nexus 7 for $100 btw https://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-ne...27_0&sid=f79cadaa9ded11e5a51da2932ad256f20000

HOLY SHIT. Just had to buy a replacement for my daughter of her old Nexus7 (Usb port stopped working) and paid $139

That deal is amazing. Everybody should get one if you aren't made of money and already have too many tablets already.

Got Dang you Apple people...

He doesn't want a damn iPad...

No shit, because he doesn't want to spend more than £250. I'm showing him how he can basically get one for under that...

I got the Nexus 7 to read Manga and comics off Comixology. Best purchase I've made for reading comics. I'm sure you can find one for cheap.

Which one (Nvidia shield)?

All shield tablets are identical, the newest one just takes everything but the tablet out of the box and presumably doesn't have a battery that catches fire.

You can say the same for Google people. He didn't want a 7" tablet but everyone keeps pushing Nexus 7. This is every tablet thread though, nobody actually cares about the OP, just what they want.

Xperia z2 tablet, what I'm currently using and it's great.

Waterproof, expandable with sd card, good specs despite its age I haven't found anything it can't tear through and can be picked up for just over £200 if your patient. I got a refurbished 32gb model for £185 on eBay but I'm pretty sure I got lucky.


BTW it's thinner, lighter and far more powerful than an ipad air.

Going to get this: http://www.very.co.uk/lenovo-yoga-2...age-wi-fi-10-inch-tablet-black/1458930203.prd

Thanks for everyone's help.

You're buying a tablet with a 2 year old OS.

I would reconsider.

edit: seems like it might have a Lollipop 5.0 update (which had serious issues) and I doubt it will get Marshmallow.

If comics is your main use check out the Tab S 10.5 otherwise get an iPad, it's the King of tables for a reason.

Yeah I'd avoid.

It'll do for what I'm after

I'm from the UK




I want a 10inch or close to that screen, and I'm not looking to spend more than £250

I'd get the Lenovo then out of the list you provided. It seems to have the highest resolution and that's more important than anything else for reading.

My mom still has an ipad 2! And works perfectly for all the stuff she uses it for like email, browsing, videos, youtube and Netflix etc. I can't see how most people need the latest operating systems and gigs of rams.

Be careful if you decide to go with an iPad. I hear rumours that something in the Apple hardware cripples your ability to read...

 

[Like the hat?]

Either get something with 32gb or something with expandable storage.

Some people play games on them.
