Got a really good cover/stand inArgos for 30 yoyos. It's a Targus. Would recommend.

Got mine this morning, brown, sealed and 16gb card inside. Love it so far.

Going to give my hd memopad to my niece and not look at anymore BA alerts for tablets for at least a year.

Mine arrived also, white with no sd card. Seal was broken but unit was unused and had the plastic protective cover in place. Setting it up now - came with an extra 50gb dropbox for 2 years, which is nice.

Thank OP.

Parcel Motel delivered mine at about 8:30 last night, I collected it a few hours ago.

I ordered the brown one and the box was sealed, and had a 16 GB micro sd with it. Had a fair amount of trouble getting it in though, but apart from that, tablet seems fine.

Thanks again OP!

From reading on hukd it seems the box opening thing is cos all boxes show the white version and retailers have to open to see if it's brown or white

That's a bit strange, my box had a picture of the brown one, and also had the colour printed on it.

Must be a load of bollocks then

If you're looking for a child proof cover for the 8", I got this - http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00EMMGAWY/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=electronics - and it's very good

Got my dispatch email also

The brown one is back in stock again

Thanks a million for alerting us, I thought I missed out! Have just placed an order for one now, fingers crossed it won't be cancelled!

Once again, thanks... You're a star!

takamichinoku

is this a good deal better than the Nook HD+ then?

Berberis

Got a dispatch email yesterday for the brown Tablet I ordered Thursday evening. The white one that came on Thursday I sold on to my daughter, who is well pleased with it. Hopefully my one comes as quick as the white one.
For anyone yet to buy a case/cover for their tablet, I ordered two of these from Amazon and arranged delivery through parcel motel. Ordinary delivery was going to cost over £19:eek:

Seems like john lewis are now price matching asda and giving a 50 pounds voucher to spend with them

wawaman

Stupid question but is the 8 inch able to fit in your pocket!?

cs5

Depends how big your pocket is. Certainly doesn't fit my jacket pocket. 8" is quite large don't you know?

Price matching them at 199 quid aye...but u get 70quid off the price with asda. So it's a better deal with them really.

John lewis never lowers the price to match the competitors

Its up to you to do the research, contact them and ask them to price match

For some people it worked

Because there is more gullible customers in Ireland

Order one last Friday, it arrived in local Parcel Motel yesterday and collected it this morning. 16gb card included and in white as requested. Very pleased. Many thanks OP.

RayCon

Mine came with an extra 16gb card too ... excellent tablet - X 1000 better than the 7"

Kenny Powers

How does this compare to the LG G PAD 50£ More?

Berberis

Collected the brown one, which I ordered last week from parcel motel today. seals on both ends of box were opened and there was a memory card enclosed in box.
The first one that I got was white and the seals were intact on that one and no card enclosed.

Just collected my SAMSUNG TAB 3 8 INCH from parcel motel.
First impressions are very good. Beautiful design and 8 inch is perfect screen size.
Not as good as Ipad mini retina (son has one) and not as sharp as Nexus 2013(my one) but for an 8 inch tablet at 155euro its a bargain. Also bought 32Gb Samsung class 10 sd card from amazon so now will have 48Gb of memory.
Thats 175 euro total compared to 489euro for retina mini 32Gb.
Delighted. Its a valentines/birthday present for the wife.
Have to decide on case.
Have it down to either of these from amazon.
Forefront
Samrick or Moko

Received the Forefront case yesterday. Ordered from Forefront through Amazon.
The shipping was expensive at £4.90 but case was only £7.99.
Comes with pen.
Very good quality case and a perfect fit. Wife is delighted with it.
Would recommend. I have seen other cases and this is v good value.
Some recommended rotating cases but my girls have them on their tablets and they make them very bulky.

fish fingers

Just ordered a tab there, cheers op.

denis160

Picked mine up from pm yesterday, brown 1, sealed box, thanks op!
It also had a free memory card!

Kenny Powers

Lads,

Did your name and PM ID show up on the delivery address in the email you were sent?

My confirmation mail have TO: PMID at the top and down below

Devilery address is just the Parcel motel address? When I log into Asda they only have the parcel motel address no sign of the PMID anywhere.

I had PMID in as first name and Full name in as last name.

TheDriver

I had PM as the address 1 and 1a Kinney....as next line. Arrived fine.

TheDriver

mine arrived with 16gb microsd, seal was still on the backing sticker in the box yet to be applied......

Secondly,my old cheap chinese tablet is on its way out,it served me well especially for streaming movies to my TV via hdmi.So,whats this Tab like?Is it worth the money and is it good for streaming movies/sport to TV?Thanks

CinSoots

You can stream to the TV with either a slimport cable or a miracast wireless device. Both mirror the screen on the tablet.
