    Nook HD+ from Littlewoods is 175 and blows this out of the water. Also people can pay up front or after christmas. Far better option.

    I saw a thread on the android forum complaining that this tablet was quite slow compared to ones with lower specs.

    Nook is not an option at all if you want a quad core processor, a 10'' screen, a camera or HDMI output.

    Oh, well spotted re: the camera. Was tempted to go for the Nook as it seems good spec with a higher res screen (prob needed to read books).

    I guess nothing is going to be perfect at the lower price bracket.

    Not much difference between 9 and 10 and quad core does not strictly mean smoother or faster tablet. Retina display on the nook hd+ compared to low resolution, slow hanspree. Ill take the Nook HD+ everytime.

    Dont use a tablet as a camera myself so id still rather the Nook HD+ which is has a better screen than an iPad or Kindle which cost 2 or 3 times as much.

    Any recent reviews of this? I have to say for me all I want it for it is maybe browsing the internet but mostly for reading (magazines, comics, media centric publications).

    The resolution on this would make me go for the above mentioned Nook HD+ first.

    Nook HD+ = 1920 x 1280

    Hannspree Hannspad = 1280x800

    The one on the N4 before you go into Lucan took one out of the box when I was there and let me use it he said he was putting it on display.

    You dont have to. Come with Google Play installed.

    For some people having the option to pay later with Littlewoods makes a big difference. The average person who doesnt care about technology will be just as pleased with this tablet. But anyone who does understand the differences id imagine would chose the Nook HD+.

    Also for the people who think the a dual core is somehow bad remember the iPad is a dual core and is smoother and faster than nearly all of them.

    Have this well tried out now. No issues.

    No lag or stalling.
    Had to reduce the default screen brightness, good crisp display.
    Fast on the net and YouTube.
    Battery about 7 hours continuous surfing.

    Happy overall.

    I thought it was a bit slow with google apps like gmail and stuff but it's been fine on most apps I've downloaded. I'm mostly just using it for reading comics though.

    Looking for a 10" tablet. Max budget is €200. Will mainly be used for surfing the web and reading the odd book. Should I go with this tablet or are there others I should consider?

    Outside of ordering one from China there's not too much choice in this price bracket for a half decent 10" tablet.

    Mate of mine who's an Apple fan got one & is mightily impressed.

    Hey I got one myself but seems to be slowing up a bit with a few apps... Downloaded a swyipe keyboard app so maybe thats what's slowing up the typing input and page refresh lag. Ill reboot to manufacturers settings and skip that keyboard app in a while. Just wondering if anyone noticed any decline. Cheers

    Moved all the apps to SD card just to be sure. Only issue I have is it seems to take a long time to charge.

    Just to point out that it is very difficult to develop a ROM if there is no source code available for the kernel they are using. I haven't looked into it, just giving you a caveat!

    Just a heads up the hannspree that I first got broke over christmas. It just refused to boot. However, DID replaced it and I had most of my stuff saved to an sd card so I didn't lose much. The new one seems to be working fine so it could have been just the first one I had was faulty.

    A bit late for the op but Amazon have had the toshiba excite pro dipping as low as £169 (about €210) as of late. Super spec at that point including a screen resolution on par with the nexus 10 and above the iPad. Initial reviews had some issues with heat and throttling but I upgraded mine to android 4.3 and pretty happy with it.
