I need some advice, and the amount of marketing spam had made sorting the wheat from the chaff annoyingly difficult. Hopefully you can help.
I’ve a young daughter, who uses an old tablet of mine to watch netflix etc. unfortunately, it was old in the tooth when she was born, and it’s now become extremely annoying to use.
She currently has a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016). The size (10") works well, but it’s gotten slow as sin, and only has 16Gb of internal memory.
Preferences wise:
-
10" screen (±2")
-
64Gb+ storage.
-
Long expected lifespan (inc security updates).
-
Headphone socket (adapters are asking to get broken, Bluetooth go flat)
-
Decent WiFi (more than just 2.4Ghz).
-
USB C charging preferred.
-
Wireless charging would be very helpful but not required.
-
Lower budget preferred (£200 range).
What would people recommend?
I got a Fire Kids tablet for my kid to use occasionally, but the interface is so horrible and the parental controls are abysmally bad, it’s been trash from the get-go. I wish I could figure out how to get stock Android on it.
I had cleaned up as much as I could off of ours, but it was still unusable. Visible latency entering in the unlock PIN, slow scrolling in apps, poor battery life. Just beyond frustrating.
