  1. I have to agree Brad the 8.4-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab S is a great unit at a reasonable price.  The OMLED screen is quite awesome.

  2. I am an apple fanatic.  I own the  64 GB Apple iPad Air 2.  If you are an avid tablet tv show and movie watcher it is a necessity.

  3. Some thoughts about those budget tablets with 8gb of memory….

     

    When I got my 8gb tablet, I said it was plenty.  Until I started to use the camera on a holiday…. that 8gb quickly filled up.  No wonder smartphones are now 32, 64, and 128gb.

     

    I find 8 inch or smaller tablets are great for travel.  Larger tablets are better for inside the house.

     

    Do you have issues typing on glass?  Looking for a case with a keyboard makes a huge difference.

  4. I hear you on the memory thing -that’s one of the reason why that HipStreet Flare got the under $100 nod. It’s only 8GB of built-in storage, but it has a microSD card slot, so you can use inexpensive cards up to 32GB for additional storage.
