My ancient Sony Xperia tablet is slowly but surely giving up the ghost, and Claire says I can have a new one for my birthday.
All I do is post shit here, shop, watch crap on YouTube and stream my meagre collection of digital downloads and radio 6 to a Chromecast Audio.
Used to Android, not averse to Apple, but like sticking a big memory card in because I’m lazy about deleting stuff, not a fan of spending big money on unexpandable internal memory, sooo…
I assume a Samsung Galaxy Tab of some flavour is about the only place to go, but open to the usual outrageously over budget suggestions…
I’ve used a 32GB iPad Mini 2 with the retina screen for about 5 or 6 years without a single issue. It functions as Roon controller, Kindle, TV (for Sky Apps), camera etc. Absolutely feckin’ excellent device. I’m pretty sure you could pick one up in really nice condition for £250ish. An iPad mini 3 might even be in budget. As the 4 is now three years old any replacement in the next couple of months might well bring the late model 3s or early 4s into budget. I’ve only managed to used 15Gb of memory too!!
If you can hold off till next week I’ve got two iPads I’m not using, don’t think I have the chargers anymore. Prices are a rough guess so if you are interested check out prices and let me know.
iPad Pro 64GB 10.5" screen (1 year old) £250
iPad Air 2 16GB 9.7" (3 years old) £150
The air2 is also cellular as I got it through Vodafone.
Yeah we have about 4 iPads of various sizes and vintages lurking round the house we also have had numerous android tablets which all have fallen by the wayside, the final one being the lads kindle fire which was frustrating shite.
