I narrowed it down to the "All New" Fire HD 8 and a second hand iPad Mini 2 Retina.

In my third world country the Fire Hd 8 is 110credits while I found the iPad Mini Retina 2 for 120credits.


Which one would you buy /g/?
Any of you own either?

Better Buy Thinkpad

I have the HD8 2017, it's good but the iPad is probably better unless you emulate a lot.

1280 x 800 (189 PPI) screen is a deal breaker for me desu.

I got it for mango/comics/ebooks/emulators

iOS has shit emulators, so I went HD8 and it's good for the price.

I plan to upgrade to a higher end tablet eventually, but this works for now.

I just bought one of these for $39 shipped on eBay after $2 off with a best offer. It's a full PC, though. Not really a cheapo Android thing but it will run Android either through a VM or natively AND it has an HDMI out and full size USB port so you can connect it to a hub/mouse/keyboard and monitor for the full desktop Windows experience. It's an x86 Windows PC so it will run many PC games and emulators like Dolphin or Fallout New Vegas. It will also run Linux if you use a new enough kernel.

Thanks, but how awful exactly is battery life?
3-3.5 hours?

I got a Fire HD 8 a couple months ago. No real complaints, other than having to manually install google play store and not having a normal android desktop.

>It supposedly gets 5-6 hours but I haven't tested it yet. I'm also a bit worried about being able to buy replacement batteries on eBay. I didn't see any. Maybe I need to give it a few years but I assume it's just as bad for those generic China PCs. There are plenty for my HP Stream 7 but other than the 32GB of storage, that isn't as nice. Also, my Stream 7 stopped charging. That's why I bought this. I was thinking of sending it to a repair service on eBay (2 for $40) What do you think? Hopefully I can get my data off it.

Most people... actually all people use controllers with their tablet (either BT or usb). Unless it is an rpg or something, no one uses touch.
>>
>>61210366
Can you recommend any flat controllers that can easily slip in a bag or pocket?

Honestly, the iPad. If you're mostly using it as a shitpost machine, and reading shit, the Retina display is pretty nice.
