So, somewhat offtopic. I'd like to buy some tablets as presents and the Lenovo ones seemed well rated for the price. Are there others that are made by a, umm, nicer company? I'm looking for cheap and reliable rather than performant.
- dawnerd 8y agoSo what's your price range? Ipads were down to 249 which I'd consider pretty darn cheap.
- dingaling 8y agoAmazon Fire 7 were down to £30 ( $40 ). That's cheap. $249 is still serious money for most families.
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y ago"Some" tablets implies more than 2, that's an awful lot of money to spend on presents.
- shash7 8y agoMaybe give chromebooks a spin? Or pair up an ipad with a portable keyboard.
- Lio 8y agoI can't really comment on the iPad idea but in the context of Lenovo's malware install... If you're purchasing a computer with Google software on it aren't you already handing everything to Google? So is a Chromebook really an alternative if you're rejecting Lenovo tablets for poor security/privacy? I've been interested in Chromebook hardware but have rejected them for security reasons previously. I'd be interested to hear other people's opinions on the mater.
