I want to buy my dad tablet.

He just does it check internet and look at stamps so i don't need a high one.

Any advice on a dependable tablet (10in screen prefer) around a $100?

at that price you probably asking for random Chinese tablet

Even a random Chinese tablet won't be 10" at a benjamin. It'll more likely be 7-inch, low resolution and slow as molasses in Antarctica.

You're best off looking for a used tablet from a previous generation.

well the problem, they more often not

and 10 inch tend to be high end. cheap tablet is 7 inch

so yeah just like synaesthetic said. you option probably buy used tablet

but if you want my recommendation of "cheap" tablet. that will be Nexus 7. it pretty much the best android tablet in market IMO

That's about as close as I could get to 10" within your budget (that doesn't include international shipping which is expensive since they only offer DHL for international orders), but the screen resolution is pretty low.

how about a 7in then?

are there good 7in tablets around $100?

RRW · 2013-04-20, 07:07

Kindle Fire, maybe ($150). if you want basic internet browsing it will do decently. but it lack of google play store so you missing lot of app and most of the sofware is buggy.

just do yourself a favor and buy Nexus 7. it cost around $200 but you get pretty much best 7 inch android tablet.

I also recommend getting a Nexus 7, used. It's not $100, but it's close if your good at negotiatiing

*Adding to the person above*

Google Nexus 7 costs 220 Euros in my country and for that kind of money, you get quite a nice tablet.
The video-playing might not be at its best, but overall, it is a really nice constructed tablet.
