Seems to be OK. A friend has one and says it's fine.

Does that work ok with Android Market (Google Play)?

When I bought the 7" Scroll tablet it wasn't licenced for it as Storage Options wouldn't pay the licence fee.

Just punted £85 on one of these: https://www.ebuyer.com/341447-sumvision-cyclone-astro-tablet-pc-sumv-astrocyctab

(Yeah, I know there's two.)

- ARM Cortex A8 1.2GHz
- 1GB RAM + 8GB Flash
- Multi Touch Capacitive Screen
- Wifi + HDMI + Webcam
- Android 4.0 - Icecream Sandwich

Order says they're out of stock with a new delivery on the way, so it should turn up in a week or so.

Interested in how you get on with that, I'm after a cheap tablet for watching movies and general web browsing at work/holiday or whatever but I'm not planning on spending a great deal of money on it.

£85 looks like a bargain!

The Lenovo A1 is not bad and can use google play.
It's on gingerbread I think but is easy to root.
On amazon the price is up and down all the time they were briefly £145 when I got mine. If you go for white or pink they are cheaper.
Doesn't matter much if you put it in a case anyhow!
Works well with videos and the sat-nav works offline which I couldn't find in any other tablet (almost worth the price for that alone)
The stupid big icon thing is easily removed with GoLauncher.

Camera is rather poor, video was reasonable but I don't use either other than a quick try.

I have a Teclast T76ti runs everything, Skype video, Youtube, I-player.

Prices have dropped considerably on tablets since Nov (when I bought mine) it was £120 and now available from about £85

It runs an Allwinner processor with 'mali400' which appears to be something you really need it also plays 3d movies

Just one suggestion. I tried to go cheap and get a 7 inch tablet. I find it is too small to read many web pages very well. Recommend getting a larger size.

I had considered going for an android tablet and briefly had one that I enjoyed before it broke, but managed to get a 2nd hand iPad 2 for £200.
One of the main reasons I went for it is app development focuses on the ios platform before being trickled down to android. That twists my nips as I have an android phone.
Can't really fault it tbh, aside from the lack of jailbreak for current iOS version.

I bought one of these last week - https://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5086706/Trail/searchtext%3EARCHOS.htm.

Loving it so far. Upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich, runs great, can get a 3G stick for £40 if WiFi isn't enough for you. Bought it to use on the boat as it's got an internal GPS and you can get some great navigation apps for it.
