Nvidia shield k1 ain't bad at $200, don't know what you consider cheap. Build quality isn't great (screen cracked easily on my first one but Amazon replaced for free) so a thick case is probably a good idea if you can't treat it gently. It's the closest thing I've found to a modern nexus 7 in this market.
Pros:
Nice form factor
Decent performance
Ui is close to stock Android
Not much bloatware
Pretty good speakers
Cons:
Sub par build quality
One of the nvidia apps puts an ad in my notifications occasionally

noname chinese tablets are either rooted by default or can be rooted by those one-click-root programs.
Some are rooted, but has no root manager (like superuser/supersu). You can just install it from the store.

...Now what? What do people even use tablets for?
Get a windows tablet and instal ubuntu touch

Picked up my Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 during holidays for $170 (seriously).
This thing is fucking amazing; almost too good. I rarely use either my Mac or PC for general internet/email anymore. I see why desktop sales are plummeting now.
