I Need A Cheap Tablet With Wifi,3G An Hdmi Port

[Kramer21]

Is there one that's reliable and nearly as good as it's higher priced rivals? I don't mind new or used if the vendor is reliable and offers a good return policy and /or warranty.

[AB Editor]

Does it need to be a full sized HDMI port?

What's the use case?

[AB Editor]

And how cheap?

This is cheap for what is does:

It has a mini hdmi out so with a mini-to-normal you can attach it to anything you like. I've used mine in a two screen set up before and it works perfectly.

Have a look on eBay...look for sellers with 100% or 99% ratings. Nexus 7 compares favourably to iPad.

Im pretty sure a nexus 7 doesnt have a HDMI port

[AB Editor]

No, Nexus 7 does not have a HDMI port - so that's no good.

If you want something cheap and cheerful, there's this: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/laptops-netbooks/ipad-tablets-and-ereaders/tablets/archos-101-titanium-10-1-tablet-8-gb-20948669-pdt.html

Or for REALLY cheap there's this: http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/laptops-netbooks/ipad-tablets-and-ereaders/tablets/versus-touchpad-7-tablet-8-gb-21460361-pdt.html

But I wouldn't like to guarantee whether it can play back video comfortably through hdmi (it might not have enough oomph).

[AB Editor]

Actually, sorry - neither of those have 3G.

It can with a MHL/HDMI adaptor for around £7 though, a bit like your mini-to normal connector Ab Editor.

[AB Editor]

I assume for dual screen or to plug into the telly to watch films etc.

[pastafreak]

I'm no techie...so I didn't think of the HDMI port.


What is that,by the way?

[Kramer21]

It's a complete minefield out there so chose against it for the cheap one i wanted based on the reviews and what the editor said. I wanted one with bluetooth, 3g and all the bells and whistles but unfortunately it seems that you can't pick up one for very cheap and if you do it won't last long.
Pastafread an hdmi cable is one to attach to the tv so you can show others movies, photos, games and apps i thought unless i'm terribly wrong???
