    Hi Folks,

    I'm afraid I'm not too au fait with tablets as I have no need for one myself so here I am looking for some advice. The sister is looking for an Android tablet for her daughter. It'll mostly be used to play games I suspect. Currently she's using a Nexus 7 (the 2013 model) but that's starting to give up the ghost so she needs something to replace that.

    Any suggestions?

    Huawei Mediapad may be your best bet. I think the M3 might fall in that price range.




    Some lenovo are good too, (tab 4).

    Argos have some great Huawei options. Bought one for my daughter recently and it is a lot of very good quality tablet for your money.

    The Bush own brand tablets from Argos aren't too bad and haven 32gb of space which should be good for games.

    I have the Huawei MediaPad M3. Cracking device with speakers on each end making it great for media and games.

    There's one huge limitation though. Huawei have completely stripped user profiles from Android. I lent it to my son for a hospital visit, he had to factory reset it to login to his accounts and I had to reset it again when he returned it. Something to take note of if the device is being shared among kids

    mi pad 4 8 inch is great value for money for what you get and is a recent tablet release

    probably the best price/performance ratio I would say

    good decently powerful cpu (most budget tablets have poor cpus), good screen, great battery life. be careful of mediatek cpus or lower end snadragon (4 series) or lower end huawei cpus (6 series)

    here for 210 euro delivered. (when converted from usd). no customs issues as comes from EU warehouse.
