jcarr492 Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 What looks good and is affordable, but not cheap made? Anything? I was thinking about the Kindle Fire HD..but they seem so small! Maybe I'm just used to my iPad I guess, but 7" doesn't look very big. Any other ideas? I'm so scared to go with a cheaper brand like Coby or Nexus..I bought my dh a Pandigital off QVC last year and it went belly up within a month of having it! Super awful reviews onit after I returned it for a refund. I know my dd's would like a front camera on it to skye with friends so thats important. But just thought the Kindle HD was small looking. Reviews?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I have the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 its a 7 inch and has 2 cameras (front and rear) it also has a microsd slot so you can increase the memory. I have also heard good things about the Nexus 7 but it only has 1 camera and no sd slot. If you want to go bigger, depending on how much you want to spend I highly recommend the Asus Transformer. DS16 got his last year for Xmas and this year I go the TF300 for myself. The Asus is a 10" tablet and has 2 cameras and a microsd slot. You can also get a docking station keyboard that works great and also when tablet is docked the battery life is extended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjncmj Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I'm with racerfan. I have the 10.1" Galaxy tab 2. I got the refurbished one from Walmart for $269 + $36 for the 2 year drop/spill/cracked screen plan. I noticed they dropped the New Galaxy 10.1 (not refurbished) to $299.99 but I'm not getting the option to buy the extended warranty on it when I put it into my cart. Galaxy Tab 10.1" My daughter originally wanted a Kindle Fire but after playing around with my Galaxy Tab 2 she now wants one also. She LOVES the front and back camera and has made several videos in just the week I've had it. Owning both the Galaxy Tab 2 and a Kindle Fire, I feel the Galaxy is so much more universal. I just bought my daughter the 7.0" refurbished Galaxy Tab 2 for $149 + $19 for the 2 year drop/spill/cracked screen plan.Galaxy Tab 7.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debbieshops2003 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I just bought my mom the kindle Fire 7" for $139.00 from Best Buy. I know my mom won't use it much. but would like her to have some technology but I can't afford an ipad or anything. I also got the docking station to charge it or listen to music on sale for $29.99.
