Good tablet to buy for quality and affordability

Its that old age saying, you get what you pay for. I have had 4 Chinese tablets recently. Well I bought them in for people that wanted them is what I mean. They are your typical cheap quality, cheap hardware pieces of well hardware. They aren't the same build quality or same spec as a Nexus or highly reputable branded device. Out of the 4 I have had to do the annoying task of either upgrading firmware (okay its not annoying its actually extremely simple) or send 3 of them back. It is also alot harder to get actual support and assistance with a Chinese tablet. Mostly because they are generic and unbranded. What looks the same as another tablet could be completely different. As an example two of the A13 'Chinese' tablets I bought in for people they were identical right down to one thing. The graphics driver for the touchscreen. But hell if I could get fully working firmware updates for that one tablet. In the end I just sent it back to the seller and got a refund I was that frustrated with it. If You want something though you don't care if it breaks and won't set you back a fortune I'd say go with the unbranded Chinese tablet. Can't give you a price for the Philippines but here in the UK I got mine for about £45-£50 including postage for a 7" 4GB tablet. Compare that to Nexus 32GB 7" tablet costing between £190 - 260. Thats a hell of a difference. But again you'll end up getting what you pay for. One word of caution you can't move apps / games etc to the micro sd card without a great deal of problems and hassle (atleast not with the Chinese tablets you can't). Its do-able in alot of cases just very annoying. So just note that if you go with that option because rushing out to buy a 8GB SD card or above, won't do much good unless its for storing movies, music, videos etc I have friends who have a Chinese tablet and have had them for over a year and its been working no problems at all so sometimes you may be lucky. Goodluck

It depends on your budget.. if you have a budget for an ipad then go for it. It is a quality one that will last long.. anways I have a cheap tablet I bought mine in a mall last december and I am loving it.. the only concern I have is the battery because it doesn't last long.. I can only used it for 3-4 hours depending on what you do to it.. internet or just playing games..

I'm planning to buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab without the phone capability. This is about Php10,000. In my case, I'm just interested in its WIFI capability and I plan to use it to browse the internet and check up on my blogs to see how they appear in mobile devices. And hopefully, I also want to use them for presentations especially if I can connect it somehow to a projector. I haven't explored cheaper brands because a quality device for my Android programming activities. I'll be using it for a long time.

I agree that the Nexus 7 is a good tablet, it's sleek and powerful enough and in my opinion reasonably price. I suggest that you check Philippine based buy and sell sites like sulit, ayosdito and tipidpc. You can find great deals for both new and used tablets at a great price compared to the prices at the malls.

Hello friends. If you really want to buy a good and smart tablet then go for SONY XPERIA Z This tablet is awesome, design is very slim and totally glossy, its water proof so you can use under shower or outside. Its dust proof and have many feature so what you need more in a tablet. Do not go for any other company.

I think you must choose the internetional band of good tablet if you ask for advance. That of Hewlett Packard may be is better for I have used it for a long time.

I would suggest you to go through the internet to buy a tablet and there are lots of features and reviews that are available in the internet that will help you to buy a tablet.

I believe Apple's iPad is still my preferred choice and I felt that it would be good to have a change from the mundane Android OS or Windows8 tablets for a change. The culture is entirely different and I have to say that it needs a little open mindedness here. I am sure it will depend on what you really want to do with it to determine your final decision. For me, I am more on the lighter side of owning a tablet so portability and versatility is on the top of my list here. I do not see myself working with them but the occasional catching up with my emails, online chats, social networking activities are a breeze to that of opening a book to read and stowing it away almost instantly when I don't need it. Also, it could even be used in crowded places without being like a bull in a China shop. Personally, I felt that the iPad's design, screen size and performance is really considerably value for money.

Nexus 7 is good. Although I don't know how much is your budget.

I can recommend you Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 P5100. It's really good. It can be your mobile phone (just quite bigger), laptop and source of entertainment. It has a good battery life and clear monitor view. I'm using it while replying in this discussion. It's around 19,000 Pesos when I bought way back January this year and it got cheaper today since Samsung has released Galacy Tab 8.0! :)

If you want quality tablet use ipad. But if your looking for a cheaper one, use samsung tablet.

Well if you want affordability, you are probably going to have to go with an Android, as those have the better prices. The Nexus tablets and the Galaxy are supposed to be pretty good, so if you can afford those, they are probably the best choices. The Asus tablets are also great, but they are more expensive.

I suggest cherry mobile fushion bolt, it is only 3999. it is a quad core tablet.
