My 8 year old daughter's tablet has broken.

She's on the look out for something to replace it, 7 inch, used for Minecraft, movies, youtube etc.

Any good offers out there at the moment. Based in midlands but often in Dublin.

Amazon Fires can be got for €60 in places like Harvey Norman, PC World etc.

Our 7 year old daughter got one for Christmas and its better that the Acer one we got for the 6 year old. The Amazon layout is a little different but works brilliantly. Showbox, youtube etc.

Hi,

How much do you want to spend? As your in the midlands Athlone/Tullamore/Portlaoise have Argos.
Also you could consider CeX exchange for pre-owned offerings

But for 60-80 euros you can't really go wrong with current offers from Argos (also available in other stores)

I've had 2 x lenovo recently and would buy another - Is a Camera required (Skype etc), ?????

Just got a Kindle Fire for my 6year yesterday from Amazon , cost 62 euro + 3.95 to have it delivered to a parcel motel. Its a nice tablet for the money. Good spec & well made. Better than those generic tablets you can get for same price.

Budget of about 140.

Camera needed for Skype.

Think I'll go for a Google Nexus 7 2013 model...in Argos.

Some schools are doing school based tablets for a reduced cost

Are kids that young using tablets so much outside of learning?

That looks very good - seems to be the best value in that price range
