I was lookin for something similar in an e-reader.. like a big kindle.. but the bigger ones are shockingly expensive...

If you want a chape but reasonable tablet.. the secondhand/refurbed ones from Amazon are reasonable money..

..expecially if you're just reading papers.. they don't have GPS and aren't spectacular gaming machines.. so .. just what you want really...

Thanks. Checked and says used, condition good. 'Minor cosmetic imperfection on the item.'

If it's refurbished I presume it would say refurbished?
Seems to be a better tablet than the Huawei.
