    Probably would prefer 10inch rather than 7 inch.

    Check out the reviews. If I recall correctly - apologies if I've got the wrong model - there's a wifi and non-wifi model but in any event there's no HDMI port or perhaps more importantly, microSD slot to upgraded capacity. Oh, and is it true you can't access google play on it and are restricted to acquiring stuff from Amazon?
    In the budget market, as much as I hate to say it, the Tesco Hudl 2 has been getting very good reviews and certainly does have microSD, hdmi and wifi connectivity.

    Does have hdmi does not allow movie downloads etc go with a Google play store variant.

    I regret getting mine.

    Amazon app store is woeful!
