Any comments on this or the new Kindle 8? I just want it for Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and the like, and web browsing, but no games or anything.

Ive got the 8gb version for the kids and they always watch Netflix no problems, space gets eaten quick even with sd card!!
But if its only Netflix etc you be fine

For video content you need to aim for 1080p. 720p on tablets looks like crap. And at least 2GB memory ram. Kindle tablets are ok for Amazon content only, they suck for everything else.
£5 for saving for a refurbed unit versus new isn't worth it in my opinion

I've had this for about a year. A good tablet apart from the Volume buttons. Presses of which often don't get recognised by the tablet.

Love my 2 Amazon Fire's for £30 each, one on charge while I'm using the other one.

To anyone to who one of these, what is the latest firmware/ROM released for it right now?
I believe it is still on Android 6.0.1, but what's the security patch level (what date)?

This tablet is pathetic. The 2GB do not help at all. The cpu is old and bad. It was bad even when launched. And 720p....please. Stick to Nexus 7, Nexus 9, Hudl 2, Mi pad 1&2, Shield K1, Huawei M1 or T1. Lenovo Tab 4 should launch in the near future.

I have a Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 which has a very similar performing processor to the one found in this and I find it OK for most tasks. Sometimes the occasional website can cause it to stutter, but it isn't overly concerning.
It must be said that I am very easily annoyed by sluggish IT equipment and I haven't yet been disappointed with the performance of my Yoga Tab 3

its fine for a cheap tablet. I use it for internet radio / Spotify & some browsing. I use other more powerful options for more taxing tasks.

nVidia Shield K1, HTC Nexus 9, ASUS Nexus 7 (2nd gen), Tesco Hudl 2, XIaomi Mi pad 2, Huawei T2 7', Huawei M2 8', Acer Predator 8'. It does not matter if some are old models. They still beat most tablets. DO NOT BUY: Lenovo tab1-tab3, Samsung non-S models, Lenovo Yoga (expensive), Acer Iconia

There's a Samsung tablet for £199 at John Lewis. Free delivery plus 2 year warranty if you're interested.

I'm sorry, but you are recommending models which cannot be had for £200 'now'. The majority models you've listed have been discontinued or are very difficult to buy within the UK.
The Nexus 9, uh... what year are we in now? And don't get me started on the Hudl... my friend are you stuck in 2014? Those tablets can no longer be bought.
I've been searching for a Shield K1 since the last time it went on sale for £150 (which sadly I missed out). Now it is nowhere to be found for new at £200.
And I suppose you are happy with a laptop at 15.6" with 1366x768 resolution, yet a tablet at 8" with 1280x800 at a budget price does no justice?
Comparing this the Lenovo Tab 3 to the Nvidia Shield K1 is like comparing a Nissan Leaf to a Mercedes Benz E-class.

I mean, it's not a bad tablet, I've got one, but i paid £79.99 for it about 6 months ago so it's not the best deal ever. I haven't voted.

The fact that you can find them hard does not change the fact they are the best. You can find them, it's not impossible. And the fact they are 3 years old does not matter. The mobile cpu industry for tablets has not evolved much. They still out perform most tablets in the same budget. All these can be found on eBay.
