8" Tablet

G1032

Is there an 8" or bigger tablet that is worth buying that would cost in or around €200? I'd be looking to get one tomorrow or Saturday. Or am I not going to get anything decent for that price??

Thanks. Is this available in stores in Ireland?? My missus lost her Nexus 7 a couple of weeks ago so I thought I'd buy her a new one..

WUFF

Got the 10 inch Hannspree a few weeks back 169 euro in did. Don't go near it!
Very disappointing, slow, unresponsive touch screen, bad battery life.
My advice save your money until u can afford something decent, it sees with tablets you get what you pay for.

Take a look at the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 for Stg£170.

That looks the business. Going to read reviews of that now and the LG one recommended earlier

Definitely go for the LG G Pad still only £179 on amazon. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 is also good, if you can find it for £149 or lower (I wouldn't pay any more than that). Got it for my mother and she absolutely loves it, perfect size for portability imo.

The G Pad is a significant step up spec wise though, so I'd recommend it over the Galaxy Tab.

Actually looking at this Asus now...........

It might fit the bill better. It's for my wife. She'd prefer the 10" screen as she found the 7" Nexus screen a bit small.

There will be no heavy gaming done on this tablet so there isn't really a requirement for huge RAM and the 1GB on this should be more than enough.

Here's another alternative http://www.amazon.it/Samsung-Pollici-memoria-Megapixel-Android/dp/B00E957AB4 . Not the fastest tablet around, but very easy to use and at a very reasonable price.

Hi
Went with the Asus in the end. Delighted with it. Smooth, snappy, good screen.

Also we found my wife's Nexus the last day!! I get that now, so everyone is happy!!!

I bought the Asus in PC World though. I knew I was paying more for it than I would have if bought online but I did need to buy it at short notice and couldn't wait for an online delivery
It cost me €229............................
