I'm looking for a cheap 10" tablet for my Mother to use as a media viewer - Netflix and movies/series stored locally. She's using a Nook HD+ (running CM12) that I bought for her a few years ago. It's got an awesome display but is playing up.
I'm happy to buy used, so if anyone can suggest something with a good display, 2gb RAM and ideally (not a deal breaker) HDMI out that I could pick up for around £100, I'd be forever grateful. Okay, maybe not forever :wink:

Nexus 10 would suit if you are okay with second hand

It's getting a tad long in the tooth, if I'm right then the Nexus 10 came out in 2012? Also, it hasn't got a micro sd slot (something I forgot to mention) which is handy when it comes to offline storage (being able to download certain Netflix shows is dead handy).

Oldie but goodie. Can be updated to Android 7.1. Has everything else you mentioned - you can always get a usb thumbdrive??

It's for my Mother who's not overly techy - I need something I can just set up and leave her to it, so an sd slot is handy but not a deal breaker - I'll compare prices with some of the Samsung Tablets mentioned

Seems like a nice tablet. I wonder how the battery life and speakers are? Would be great to have a tablet which didn't need an external speaker to be able to hear properly while watching iPlayer....

This is exactly why it's worth paying the extra for an iPad. I'm an Android phone man, so went through a dozen or so Android tabs but none hit the spot. After wasting my time and a reasonable amount of money, I accepted that iPad is THE tablet.

Horses for courses. I found the ipad overpriced boring and a bit "meh"...

Ditto. Wife has an iPad Mini 4 and it's a great little thing, sadly the OS (iOS) just doesn't work for me.

A 6660 mAh battery would last up to 13hrs and the speakers are quality, from Harman Kardon.
"The Huawei MediaPad M2 10’s speakers are the only items clearly stamped with another brand. Harman Kardon units, and there are four in total; two on the top edge and two on the bottom. Note that they don’t simply pump out either side of the stereo feed. Two of the speakers are tuned for bass, the other two for treble. This is quite a smart idea, and a good way to avoid the distortion that can occur when a small driver is pushed to its limits." Trusted reviews

Heat added. However, "Unlimited performance". Seriously, "unlimited"....

I wondered how one would even quantify 'unlimited performance' too :joy:

If it's not underclocked, it could be said to be unlimited as they haven't limited it :wink:
Heat for the deal btw - tablets don't have a place in my technical menagerie but if they did, this would be there :smile:

Seems stuck on Android 5.1, and I guess with that chipset it'll get little third party support. Ah well, seems ok apart from that!

I've got this, think its excellent. Paid £159. Really loud. Great battery life. Faster than my previous tablet Note 2014 10". It does what you need a tablet to do. Only downside IPS screen doesnt go quite as bright as I would like.
Seems like a pretty good spec not how well it will work is another thing. Main Features: ● System: Android 7.0 Allows you to remain connected and productive ● MTK8176 Hexa Core 1.7GHz, up to 2.1GHz Ultra-low-voltage platform and hexa-core processing provide maximum high-efficiency power to go ● 10.1 inch 10-point IPS Screen Offers good experience for watching videos and browsing the Web. The 2560 x 1600 resolution boasts impressive color and clarity ● 4GB RAM 64GB ROM Provides enough room for your use, can suit all your needs ● Dual Cameras for Photos and Face-to-face Chat 8.0MP AF rear-facing camera + 13.0MP front camera let you capture memorable moments or chat with friends
