Love aldi but wouldn't spend £75 on anything like this where I go for cheap fruit and veg... Did buy an electric rotavator there once tho randomly and it worked a treat so I could wrong! If anyone has one are they any good? :smiley:

​​Aldi don't make the product, it'll either work or it won't in which case you take it back. The days of supermarkets only selling good are long gone.

Here's a review:

These are great tablets, my son got one when Aldi opened near us about a year ago, good screen and pretty good battery. Like the post says, great spec and a free 32Gb micro SD card so potentially 64GB storage. Foor £75 you cant go wrong. Heat added.

It's £99 at the Aldi in Coulby Newham, Middlesbrough

Ouch, that review is pretty scathing :disappointed:

Medion tablet? :laughing:

Pure garbage.

Wow something cheap local to me. Heat added. :smiley:

Medion is a brand of Lenovo isn't it...?

Blimey, learn something new every day. Acquisition confirmed on Lenovo press-site http://news.lenovo.com/news-releases/lenovo-acquires-medion-ag-to-expand-its-business-in-western-europe.htm

No point in it being cheap if it's by all accounts terrible. Cold.

It is NOT terrible and that review is WAY out of date. I don't own this tablet but my father does and for the money it is superb.

ALL of the negatives regarding the screen responsiveness and audio in that review have been fixed with firmware updates. The gripes about the design are totally subjective - it has an angular. Surface-like design that I quite like.

It's basically a Lenovo Tab2 A10-70 (check review here: http://www.trustedreviews.com/lenovo-tab-2-a10-70-review) with an Atom processor and a slightly different shell (arguably better, in fact, as the rear of the Medion is all metal instead of the creaky plastic back of the A10).

Don't forget - 3 year warranty, too. Update the firmware and it's an absolute bargain for £75 - the processor is speedy, it has 2Gb RAM, expandable storage and a terrific Full HD screen. It even has mini-HDMI out! What the hell more do people want for 75 quid? :stuck_out_tongue:

Got one for my son on first release for £135 then my dad got one on their next special buy release for similar price on my recommendation. They work great since the firmware update. Glad we kept it for the firmware update as it nearly went back.

Had some sumvision tablets previously which at the time were almost as much but these blew them away. Good build except for USB power port which has gone twice but easily replaced by Medion under the 3 year warranty. May have been due to a lack of care by my 7 yr old though.

Doesn't mean it's any good though. That's a big mistake people make. There are Lenovo laptops that are pure garbage.

Any time I've ever had an issue with a product within the first year I've taken it back to Aldi themselves and they've given me a refund on the spot (same for Lidl). Beyond that, I don't think I'd bother returning something to Germany after 18 months or whatever that only cost £75 to begin with. But at least the option is there.

At least Aldi take things back unlike Argos who I have had nothing but problems with they never take anything back and instead blame the customer always had problems with Argos rubbish customer service would buy from Aldi any day over them

we have the 8 inch lifetab and its great. Long battery life, good sound, quick. No issues. Does not feel cheap

Really not worth going to Haverhill for though, I'm from a crap part of Scotland and even I don't go to Haverhill even if the petrol was cheaper. Would be curious to see if the Saffron Walden one had the same deal though.

Well yeah logged call with Medion. Sent an email sheet. Sent off free of charge I think picked up by courier. And returned a week or so later. Would expect same or lesser experience for a uk based return. Was no bother at all.

:smiley: Voted hot but such a shame it appears to be store specific

Oh I don't pretend they don't, with the exception of high-end only brands pretty much every brand has hits and misses. I had 2 HP laptops (both £600-700) which both went back multiple times under warranty and in the end lasted little more than a year; I don't decry everything they produce as crap though.

Obviously, it won't be 'everything'.

With Medion, the microwave ovens they sell, will probably heat up your food just fine, so its more like 98% of their products are crap :wink:

You haven't got one so you don't know what your talking about. I have got one and it's a very capable tablet, it runs better than my lenovo tab 2 which isn't rubbish either.

Get real - it's rubbish.

Ur making yourself look pretty stupid, everyone who has one has confirmed it's a very decent tablet but you carry on taking carp fella lol

When you've just wasted £75 on a tablet that is slow, doesn't work properly and has a terrible camera, I'm sure you'll do anything to convince yourself it's just like the iPad Pro...

It's junk. Get over it.

Now ur making yourself look reeeally silly :laughing:

The only people who are silly are the ones who bought it and think its some sort of iPad! :laughing:

Oh didums, did someone spend £400 on an ipad & now feels like a mug every time someone mentions a tablet that cost a fraction doing a perfectly good job :laughing:. Your obviously also one of those weirdos who goes around talking pictures of things with a tablet hahaha, maybe you should have spent your money on a decent phone with a camera..

Those technological connoisseurs who buy their high end, cutting end from Aldi The Supermarket LOL :laughing:
