10" Android Affordable Tablet - Sub $200

Hi Guys

Looking to purchase a tablet for Skype usage, emails, etc.

It's for someone else, as a gift.

Looking at the eBay options, most $100 tablets have poor front camera.

Any recommendations?

  • So Im guessing Im too optimistic with my price range.

    Will need to reconsider.

    you could consider the Samsung Galaxy Tab E series
    http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/astore/Samsung-Tab-E-C14…

    They're kind of low end IMO (namely the 1.5GB of RAM and 1280 x 800 resolution) but it is a pretty cheap device at $269 ($280 if you want the 3G variant).

    front facing 2 megapixel camera however.

    Officeworks and JB Hifi sells the Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 for a little less than $300. This tablet is much, much better than the Samsung and has a 5 mpx front facing camera with a full HD display, and 2GB of RAM.

    The Selfie cam takes OK quality images

    This is literally the cheapest 10" tablet that you can buy in a brick / mortar shop that has the above specs.

    • Ok thanks,

      Will consider those options…

      It's just that they're out of the budget, being a gift for someone's first tablet.

      Im happy to order from overseas, as Ill need it in a months time.

      Thanks

      • What about Nexus7 or a smaller sized Galaxy tab?

  • Have a look at http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Tablet-PC-c-428.html
    I have bought items from Banggood before, had no troubles (but ever had to return/fix an item though)
    I see some of the tablets are 2mp front cam so should be fine for skype.

    does it have to be 10inch? 8 inch wont do?

    • Thanks PVA,

      Ended up ordering the 'Teclast X98 Air III Intel Z3735F 1.83GHz 9.7 Inch Android 5.0 Tablet'

      Cost is $199, less coupon; net cost $162, which was spot on the budget.

      Much appreciated.

      • post back what you think of it as I am on the hunt for a tablet as well, just not in a hurry for one.

          Will probably take a month to arrive, but if its good, then awesome.

          Ive already posted it as a deal, crediting you.

        • @movieman:
          hope its fine, $160 seems a deal.

  • Looking for Xmas Pressies… what was the verdict on the Teclast?
