Reasonably priced tablet

[Satcat]

I am going to buy the wife a tablet for Christmas. She has a cheap one now that's past it's sell by date. All she uses it for is Emails and browsing, so as long as it runs smoothly and doesn't occasionally lock up, it will be ok. I am thinking of an approx 10" screen and looking spend about £120.
Any suggestions?

Here you go:

(Name of the largest river in south America) Fire HD 10

That will suit your needs, you get them Brand new on a well know ******* site for £140, or you can get a refurb for £99.

I bought one of the ****** fire hd 10 in argos 2 weeks ago on black Friday for 109 euros,absolutely delighted with it.highly recommend it,pity you didn't pick one up on black Friday.

Thanks guys. I hadn't considered a fireHD, but will have a look at it. I have been looking at the Huawei T3 10 @£120 (was £90 on black Friday) and the Samsung Tab A 10.1" @ £159.00, but that's a bit more than I was wanting to pay.
Wonder if prices will come down after Christmas?
Any more suggestions welcome...

I was looking at some for a friend on one of those Chinese sites [AE] the other week .He wants to buy his wife a new tablet for xmas . She had been looking and saw a one for around £70 and wanted me to check out the specs: 10" screen , Android 9 , octocore ,4GB RAM,not bad for the price. But , there will be a wait if it's coming from China.
Good memory is a must , those updating apps eat up alot of space, the most RAM is a must too, SD card for extra storage , The latest operating system too and a decent screen resolution . Like everything else you buy nowadays spend a little time checking out the specs before you buy .

Just been and bought a Huawei T3 10, reduced to £99.99. It hasn't got all the specs mentioned above but it will be sufficient for what the wife needs it for.
Thanks all for you thoughts

people reporting apps can't be moved to sd card on the t3

[Satcat]

That shouldn't be a problem. As I said she will be using it mainly for browsing and emails. I can't see her loading a lot of apps.
Although, I understand that if you have problems transferring an app to sd card there is an app you can install that allows you to do it
