My Lenovo tablet has finished. I would like a low cost tablet from Amazon or similar on line purchase.
All I do is internet and YouTube nothing else on it at all.

There seems to be lots on Amazon I can get quick at sub £100 but I don't know what to go for .

Appreciate a recommendation

Thanks

I had cause for a very cheap Tablet to use for a lengthy hospital stay and for obvious reasons, didn not want to take my IPad Pro with in me.

I purchased a simple Gleeso 10.1-inch from Amazon that runs android, and it is perfectly adequate for what it does - basic surfing, streaming television and turning emails around. Cost was circa £75(ish) from memory.

It will never set the world on fire and is incomparable to the iPad, but it does a job, and does it to an acceptable standard.

Id go for a Galaxy Tab A11 - I have one and its perfectly usable. You also know the android version is legitimate and not going to be left on an old version for years.

If you're happy buying a no name brand from Amazon you may as well go to AliExpress and get a no name brand direct from China at 30-40% cheaper. The Amazon sellers are simply re-selling the Chinese ones anyway but if you buy direct you cut out their mark up.
