Tablet Deals & Offers

I also have this, unfortunately did not return it within the cooling off period and stuck with a tablet that's so slow it's unreal. You press an icon and wait, wait, wait for anything to happen. Web browsing is next to impossible, it takes 30-60 seconds just to render the window (not the whole page!) in Chrome. I now use it exclusively as a viewer for the baby monitor. As a tablet, it's unusable.

I just bought my daughter a bush spira b3 8 inch on sale at argos for £99.99 has 2gb ram 32gb hdd and 1920x1200 screen plus it has hdmi out and its alot faster than her old lenovo 8 inch tab and starts up in half the time to

This is a horrible device. I bought one and returned it it was so bad to use.

Don't touch.

Crazy mental voting on this site, The OP also posts the same good deal and price with Argos and it's getting quite hot +55 but this deal with a better warranty and same price is -35 ?????? maybe because someone who doesn't know what their talking about makes an incorrect comment OUCH!

OUCH ......NO IT WASN'T !! Although this deal shares a similar name the two tablets are completely different.

OUCH indeed....this is so cold. I wouldn't buy the latest Tab 4 at this price.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Ouch this was 99.99 at argos couple of weeks ago keep a watch out

That dell has a better CPU but is lower resolution and non touchscreen so not a direct comparism. I suspect that the battery lift may fall short too. I'm not saying that it's a bad option just a quite diferent one.

Good for web browsing. you could get an older dell with an i5 that is much faster, and useful, for that money. New isn't always better. Technology is stuck in first gear. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DELL-E6430-LAPTOP-WINDOWS-7-CORE-i5-WEBCAM-128GB-SSD-4GB-14-1-LCD-HDMI-B/162979337945?epid=16015632990&hash=item25f25356d9:g:RXsAAOSwRN1alBV5

I'm fairly sure (but check if it's critical to you) that the RAM is soldered but the SSD is regular M2 and user upgradeable.

Wish they had some with 8gb ram.

yes it's about 50% better (in peak performance - as its passively cooled it wont sustain that performance so not ideal for sustained performance tasks like encoding video) more importantly it uses 4.5w vs 35w so batteries last so much longer and the machine runs silent. I can't really comment on this machine, I would recon being a 2 in 1 it will be top heavy and I find windows in tablet mode pretty rubbish but the cpu is more than decent for normal tasks

hmm this or the Galaxy Tab A

Different Tablet believe it or not Higher Spec Screen with this one its the Plus Edition You bought the normal version which is still on argos for £120

Was 99.99 couple of weeks ago Keep a watch as it'll drop again btw it's been great

Same is available for £149.95 with 2 years warranty from John Lewis: https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lenovo-tab-3-10-plus-tablet-full-hd-2gb-ram-16gb-10-inch-with-2-year-warranty-14995-from-john-lewis-2929805

It's potato quality even by last generations standards and doesn't even transmit audio, so whoever would use this in 2018 (nobody) would have to use a separate jack to jack cable for sound too. I get what you are saying but you're kidding yourself if you think somebody would use this nowadays.

I'd say it was more useful in 2018, as people are more likely to have VGA ports free on their older displays. What are such people meant to do? Spend 3 times as much on a smart device to cast to which hogs an HDMI port instead?

Is there a use for this product in 2018?

Really? Every single time? We get it. Some people think Apple things are overly expensive. Some people think they’re extremely good quality and worth every penny. Neither is totally right. Can we get past that and not have to say the same inane things on every Apple product that’s posted? It doesn’t make you clever or in the know. ‘I’m not stupid me! I can see the marketing for what it is, not like those sheeple’. It doesn’t make you better than people that do buy Apple products - because it’s just a choice: like weetabix or cornflakes. What it does do though, is it makes you boring.

Usually this is the case but at the deal price, you get a genuine item for the price of a non genuine item. A bargain to me.

I just bought a Sandisk Extreme pro 32 GB. Is the Samsung Evo Plus 64 as good for a 4K camera.?

I just bought one 2 days ago. Cheeky Amazon putting price up and marking as sale. For shame Amazon. For shame. BUT it's the only one I found that works well with Android phones as expandable storage.

£16.79 at 7dayshop £16.99 at Base £17.07 at Mymemory with VC5 code £17.69 at Picstop

Is this one any good for CCTV?

I mean franchise stores, not owned by ee Franchise owned by ee and not franchise at all makes no sense, I don't understand your 2nd question

I didnt pay much more for the P20 Pro, COLD

What do you mean by franchise stores? You mean ones owned by a franchisee with EE as the franchisor or do you mean some new Americanism thing whereby franchise means ee own it themselves and therefore it’s not a franchise at all?

Ive had a honor 6x (owned by huawei,just s sub brand) and ive never made a better choice.really robust,no issues ever, only thing I did was install nova launcher as im not a huge fan of the iphone looking UI. But so much performance for the price!

This phone any good ? I tend to avoid phone makes I've never heard of...the specs look amazing but still abit on the edge

This or the p8 ? https://m.gearbest.com/tablet-pcs/pp_641529.html

This is the 2GB version, not sure what else is onboard to warrant this price (compared to TBX103F).

Cheap but you are paying what you get for. Especially how the previous iteration of this tablet had a better screen compared to this. e.g. Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 - 1200x1920 pixels this- Lenovo Tab 4 - 800 x 1200 pixels Also won't get many software updates with my experience with Lenovo

just bought one, looked at this yesterday for a higher price... only wanting a basic tablet for general use... this should be ideal

Think this is the correct version but keyboard & case sets can be bought for around £25. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Folio-Case-Cover-Tempered-Glass-Keyboard-For-Lenovo-Tab-4-10-Inch-Tablet-/202268728776?_

I ordered this tablet on a previous offer in November and it never came. I paid by American Express and I am still arguing with them. They state they sent it and it arrived in the country, but it never arrived here. I bought one on ebay, and it is not perfectly stable and there is some hiss on the speakers. Gearbest keeps changing the price and it can be a low price for a few days or just hours. I'd be neutral on this. You may think you have bagged a bargain but then it may never arrive. The screen is fantastic though. Priority international shipping was available for free so I chose that option and that may have been a mistake. The other factor with this is that you might end up paying import duties and the NHS needs your money.

Yeah it's the same one. Weird. Not sure why that why cold.

This is a great tablet. Very fast, great screen. My advice would be not to update to version 2.0 of the software as its a bit buggy still. Only problem I have found is that I cannot use sky go app as it thinks its rooted ( which it isn't) apart from that, if you can get this below £160, you'll get a great deal

is this tablet google certified?

I commented on that in the last thread for this tablet. The price was coming up differently on different browsers. On my stock RN4 browser it's currently priced as stated in this thread.

Which, the Tab 4 or the A10-70F? I've checked periodically on the forums and it's not possible on mine.

Erm, you should be easily be able to unlock the boot loader on this model......

I have the A10-70F and while it's a good tablet it's stuck on 6.0 with no more updates planned. Furthermore, the bootloader is locked so I can't load Lineage to get the latest Android. Pete

I was tempted by this tablet https://www.gizmochina.com/2018/04/15/how-does-a-2k-screen-chuwi-hi9-air-with-4g-lte-and-android-oreo-performs-video/ What are Chuwi tablets like? Excellent spec for the price. Tho only available from the Chinese website thats banned from here.

The A10-70F is an amazing tablet so the plus version of the 4 should be fantastic.

Yeah - I just read that too.. So, am going to probably hang fire and see how they get on.... Update : looks like they have already announced a date for some European countries, April 20th. So gonna order...

Yes, although Huawei claim to be preparing an OTA fix

Also no HD support for Netflix . And perhaps Prime video too?

Agreed Doublehelpings. Problem with these are that they aren't at 90 degrees (like many headphones.) They also get lost easily and cost money to replace. I for one am voting with my wallet against ditching the 3.5mm Jack.

True, but it does come with a usb-c to 3.5mm dongle

value for money

What's VFM?.

Anyone know if this would play older games such as vice city, tiger woods 08, FIFA 08 on the highest settings?

Can anyone confirm that this is an oem Chuwi Hi10? Appearance and spec very much looks like it. So on the basis it come with a UK warranty then decent VFM.

Xcom 2 has pretty low overall requirements, for ram it's 4gb minimum, and it's turn based so even if you only get 20 fps it should be okay

Someone else has posted a different Tesco deal for the Tab 4 (not plus) £129, which makes the Currys Plus price an extra £60, i.e. almost half as much again. https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lenovo-tab4-10-101-16gb-with-2gb-ram-black-android-70-for-129-tesco-direct-free-cc-2927080

fell off my seat when i saw the specs (after skipping over the hype). i thought it was spring, not winter!

Cold, pay the extra 20 and get the plus model, which as discussed above is significantly better.

Is this better than the Samsung Galaxy Tab A?

£10 cheaper from Laptop Outlet via Tesco Direct: https://www.tesco.com/direct/lenovo-tab-4-10-101-tablet-snapdragon-425-quad-core-2gb-32gb-android-71-nougat-za2j0124gb/226-6796.prd But even at £30 difference, the plus looks better value to me. (The Tesco page says 32GB in the title and specs, but 16GB in the description. If it's really 32GB, that might make a difference.)

The good android tablets are also smooth. Not sure about the tablet in this deal.

I know mate but the ipad is super smooth compared to android tablet. Just picked up the 2018 ipad for £303, I suppose it all depends what your going to use it for.

But how can you run Android on an ipad? as ios is way too restrictive.

with new cheap prices recently posted here for both 2018 iPad and 2017 version,there is really no reason to even consider these android tablets anymore.

galaxy s8 is a lot better if you are ok with 5.8 and it costs £450 lol

Neutron will do what you want. I have all my Music on a SMB Share and Neutron plays directly from the share. The UI is unique BUT worth getting to know as the app works very well. (Clue: 'Click and hold' [Hold your Finger] on everything to find all the 'hidden' options etc :) ]

same here, I have poweramp from ages, but I try this app, it's free :)

So SORT BY tab can only select Title, Albums, Artist, Artists, Duration, Ascending etc - so how do you sort in terms of time i.e. most recent added or newest songs first as that would help me. Thanks

I think player pro does

Thanks, I'll give it a go. (highfive)

Agreed. The Hudl 2 specification and price point was amazing. Mine broke just a few weeks ago. Sound works but screen is black. Some photos on it I'd love to recover. Trying to figure out a way to get them back without spending a fortune. Don't want to fork out for a new screen then find it's not the screen :(

we should really stop calling disk space "memory"...

I understood that the GPU on an android device uses some of the internal storage memory and not RAM which is dynamic memory used to run apps.

Lol do your homework this is HD with 2GB

Yes it does. I backed up all data folders to my laptop, the apps were fresh installs from Google Play. But the upside is you get rid of all the crap you've collected and only reinstall apps you really need! It may be a bit of a pain but doesn't take too long to do.

Hmm, well, that's probably the issue, then! I reboot my mobile every night, never open the app, and it all still works as expected (i.e. calling from my Echo results in my mobile ringing). I don't know if the Alexa app starts automatically after a reboot (it probably does). Maybe you have a setting that stops Alexa from starting automatically? I don't know how else the app on your mobile would be expected to work if you close it, though. Also, if you have reasonably recent mobile, I am pretty certain you don't have to close all the apps - I read that you say it's a habit, but I think you will have to keep the Alexa app running if you want it to, you know, work. (cheeky)

It only works if the alexa app is open/running on my phone, I'm in the habit of closing all apps when not using my phone

It should, mine does.

Hehehehehe, isn't that what "Ask Google" is for?, lol. :-D

How come when I call myself from my alexa, my phone doesn't ring? I have the Alexa app. Would be useful for finding phone when I misplace it

I have updated it as it should first thing when i power it on. No problem for me :D

Mines playing up since the ota upgrade. Google play services won't update. Have u had that?

Ive the fire hd 10 is this a worth the upgrade?

You might prefer this Design looking like Samsung Galaxy phone of course :) the other does not have home physical button !!!

I've got T10 for a bit less 1 month ago from Gearbest.. i dont think this could be a good deal at all. All works perfect. super fast tablet. like this one of course the only thing is that this is 8'' :)

The offer ended on the 11th April on the microsoft site.

Thanks for heads up on Amex but looked like it doesn't include the type cover.

You'll know that the 4GB will never manage photoshop with large photos, multiple layers and so on. On the other hand, I know first hand with experience of the 4GB devices that they'll function very well for everything else. I owned the SP3 from around its launch, and only upgraded to the 2017 SP last Black Friday. My workflow on my SP is pretty much the same every day. Office, NVivo, Mendeley, Onenote, Web, SPSS (Although that's being used less these days), Spotify, Skype, Media consumption. No graphics work, which is why 4GB works for me. Even if I were 'running out of RAM' the swap is sufficient for my purposes that I don't notice it. That will not be the case when you've got heave RAW manipulations going on. It sounds to me like the Surface Book 2 is the machine for you, but yeah, hopefully a deal will swing your way soon.

Got a powerful desktop for my design work so not sure the Surface Pro i5 8GB RAM is essential as I want it more for the tablet form factor. But 4GB feels like it definitely wont be enough. Kicking myself hard for not jumping on a Surface Book 2 deal/price glitch now as I'd much prefer a true laptop form factor that can become a tablet but not liking the alternative 2-1s when compared with Surface Pro.

The chances of getting a 4GB device to do reasonable in depth Photoshop is slim, but given that one of your alternative device will be a new iPad pro, it seems like the kind of photo editing you have in mind will work more than well enough on the 4GB surface pro.
