i don't have the required knowledge to judge - but is this a bargain to purchase?


Amazon.co.uk User Recommendation


i don't do anything fancy, just email, www, and you tube videos. (this tablet i am using at the moment is a blackberry playbook)

I have never heard of this make before. Why don't you pop down to Tesco
and look at their Hudl ? There have been good reports about them, and are only £99. If you visit one of their bigger stores, you can get someone to show how they work. That would be my recommendation !

I stress I'm no tablet expert but the price seems appropriate to the spec to me. I note the answer that tells me some e-mail sites are difficult to access (?!?), that the processor speed isn't specified, and that screen resolution is around a quarter of my mobile's: but on the plus side the price is favourable for a 10", and the user reviews positive. Might be worth a punt.

Looks OK to me!!

The HUDL 2 is far better at £99 that the one on Amazon at £79.

For example tablet screens are made up of small dots called pixels (the more pixels the better as they are smaller and more dense)

The one on amazon has a pixel screen size of 1024x600 which is only 600,000 pixels (very poor).

The HUDL is 1920x1200 (over 2 million pixels) so the pixels are smaller and more packed together giving you a FAR better image on the HUDL than the Amazon tablet.

Also the HUDL has 2Gb or memory, the Amazon device only 1Gb of memory, making the HUDL better.

Plus you can take the HUDL back to Tesco to swap it or get a refund which is nice to know.

Go for the HUDL.

Smaller though.

[mikey4444]

Agree 100% !

I wouldn't buy it and I doubt it was ever £200. The RAM is very poor and it doesn't have the latest version of Android.

I'd certainly agree go for the Hudl2. If you have a clubcard you can also swap and double the points to get money off - I got mine for just over £60 when they were £125 by using clubcard. Apart from not having the kudos of being an Apple product I can't fault it.

>>>Smaller though.

True. The one on Amazon is 10" the HUDL is 8.3".

However that would make the screen quality even worse, stretching those pixels over a 10" screen.

I don't have a HUDL 2 (I have a HUDL 1 and a Google Nexus) but I have seen the HUDL 2 in Tesco and the image quality is stunning.

Agree with you Prudie. Mine was from tescos, lots of money off.
My huddle is as quick as lightenening too.
