Not for everyone, but if you want a cheap windows 10 laptop you could do worse. I bought this last Christmas for my wife - It was £129.99 at the time on a special deal - so while only a tenner cheaper this time it's better than anywhere else at the moment. It's a brilliant bit of kit - runs Kodi, ideal for browsing or working with Office. Hope this helps someone!
Good price but I got to say it's crap
Battery doesn't last long and the screen is pants.
Wifi is terrible.

maybe you were unlucky or maybe it depends on expectations. For me the battery seems to last forever, the screen is very sharp - or as sharp as I need it and I've not had a single WiFi connection problem that wasn't the fault of my crap broadband

Wifi on these is terrible. Totally hit and miss, I had to create a guest wifi to connect to when it wouldn't connect to my main wifi and swap between the 2 depending on how it was playing up.

regarding WiFi issues, anyone care to share what router they have or what type of WiFi? I previously had BT with their HomeHub 5 dual band WiFi ... horrid router... caused numerous problems for me with various devices.

Same here. Tablet has been awesome all around. Wifi is reliable, battery lasts me three days with video use for around 4 hours a night. If you have WiFi issues, go to linxtablet.co.uk. Heat added.

Had mine for around 6 months now & the battery ain't that bad. Never ever had any issues with the wireless dropping out, screen looks fine to me for what i use it for.
To add, mine hasn't got the keyboard. Does the keyboard drain the battery?

Got this last week from Staples for £99.99 as part of their Black Friday promotion
Only had limited time on it, but for me wi-fi has been fine (Sky broadband). Out of box Windows OS needed quite a few updates but now these are in place it seems a good tablet for (well for me) sub-£100.
Haven't opened / connected the keyboard as not sure if I need to use this seperately so may yet sell on e-Bay.

With any luck, come Christmas time going, they'll repeat upon such cool price's again?, hopefully .....
The Linx 10 Lite, 16GB has served me well!, but is mad limiting on space (ESPECIALLY as Windows 10 deliberately insists on mandatory 'updates', irrespective of whether you expressly agree to them or NOT?!, most annoying!!!, and as such killed much of any real useful internal space again, I've heard there is a way to turn-off that annoying Windows 10 feature somewhere?, but don't know how to do it?, if anyone is more familiar on that end of things, your input would be most appreciated, thanx). :-)

got to say I am impressed with mine, I got for £99 from Staples last week. Ended up getting 4 as my friends were that impressed by them. Wifi on mine is good connecting to a virgin media superhub 3 but it is only on the 2.4ghz frequency so if you have a lot of networks around where you live from other peoples routers then you can get interference. Only thing you can do is to change the channel on your router try 1 6 or 11 ideally. There is an app on the windows store called wifi analyser which can display what network are around your area, just pick a channel that has the least overlap.
The screen is pretty good and speed was fine for using youtube and browsing the net at the same time using the perfect tube app and edge browser.
