Hey /wsr/, /g/ told me to fuck off to here

I need a tablet for the sole purpose of watching movies, browsing and reading slides.

What I want:
>good aspect ratio (4:3, 3:2)
>good resolution (1080p or more)
>ability to run a torrent client
>ability to run a good video player with interlacing (mpv if possible)

I was thinking of:

Teclast x89 Air 3G
>Pros
Glorious 4:3 2048x1536
x86 Bay Trail
microSD
Can install a full distro instead of some Android shit so I could run mpv
>Cons
Probably less battery life than ARM
Driver compatibility in Linux is a clusterfuck
Probably will be stuck in KitKat forever

Don't care about black bars (4:3 matters more) and don't want to spend over 200$. What do you suggest?

No, I can see myself ending up using Android way more. All I care about is a good screen and a good video player. What I want to know essentially is, what would the best combination be? This tablet and Android? Something else?

Do not buy ANY baytrail tablet if you want to run desktop linux. Missing drivers totally ruin it.

I figured as much. So if I'm buying a tablet, it's for Android. That much I can settle with. What about the tablet itself?

No wonder /g/ sent you here
There is no mpv on android if you spent 2 minutes looking on mpv.io you would know, also teclast makes decent tablets

OK so, why no Android MPV? Is there a technical reason for it?
