    I'm keeping an eye on the Amazon fire tablet for my daughter. I'm looking at the 7inch screen but the 10inch one looks good too!

    only thing i found wrong with amazon tablets is that they are restricitve ( maybe good for children). Last years model no longer supports viber. They do not have google play store as standard, everything is trough Amazon. Thats why im looking for a budget 10" tablet but not amazon.

    I am looking for a 10 inch. There is an Amazon Fire refurb for £99 but I already have the 7 inch & don't really want another fire.

    Lidl have a Lenovo in their sale but it's not as cheap as online. A Huawei media mate would suit me.

    Try the 10 inch lenovo in argos, great tablet, have one for about five years now, never let me down, might not be the fastest, but you can stream movies and live TV no bother if you have a middling Internet connection.
    They're usually at a great price, mine was only 119 euro when I bought it and the battery life is unreal.

    I have the 7 inch & I hate the way that you are bombarded by ads & a lot of Android apps won't work. Then there's the storage problems.

    That's the same one as in Lidl this weekend.

    This looks like a super deal......until you read the reviews on Amazon
