    tbh, you really do get what you pay for in the tablet world. personally I wouldn't buy that one, the specs are truly dire, but the price obviously reflects. for a start, only 4 gb storage, so you have to add on another 15 euro for an sd card. even apart from that, the specs are probably as low as you can get these days.

    You will regret buying such a low spec tablet. If that's all you can afford, I would certainly look around online for a better spec.

    the ram is ****, apps wont be too long filling it up. will only end up frustrating you. go with the lenovo tablets from argos. 1gb of ram and money off, check boards for the link

    Specs are atrocious, stay away from all those cheapy tablets, you will only end up regretting it. Save up for a bit and buy a Nexus 7 or even Xiaomi's new MiPad if that takes your fancy.

    Agree with all above, don't touch this yolk.

    If your budget is around €50/60, which it may be, look to China, use the free shipping registered airmail option:

    Here is one 7-inch Tablet which is available in two stores I have used before. CHUWI is a decent Chinese Brand.

    http://www.hongkongeek.com/en/android-touch-screen-tablets/5333-chuwi-v17hd-tactile-tablet-with-android-44-1gb8gb.html €63, free shipping, no customs or vat.

    http://www.geekbuying.com/item/CHUWI-V17HD-RK3188-1-6GHz-7-inch-Tablet-PC-Android-4-4-Quad-Core-IPS-Capacitive-Touch-Screen-1224-600-1G-8GB-White-328219.html

    €52, free shipping, you are responsible for import duties, etc.

    I checked another, Dealsprime, and they have it even cheaper!!!

    http://dealsprime.com/chuwi-vx17hd-android-4-4-tablet-pc-7-0-ips-1024-600-quad-core-rk3188-1-6ghz-gps-bt-1gb-ram.html

    €50!!!, free shipping, you are responsible for import duties, etc.

    Highlights

    Google Android 4.4 OS

    7 inch 1024*600 capacitive touch screen

    RK3188 Quad Core 1.6GHz

    1GB DDR3 RAM and 8GB NAND FLASH ROM

    Support HDMI function

    0.3MP front camera

    Decent spec, Quad-core Rockchip RK3188, 1 GB RAM, Android Kitkat, 8GB Internal ROM/32 GB expansion micro sd.......etc, etc.


    Hongkongeek, who say they will cover any costs if customs charge duty or VAT, but are a bit more pricey, and Geekbuying, who are cheaper, but if customs charge, you pay....I don't know about Deals prime, but they seem to be OK, others may have an opinion.

    customs won't be much at the price of this baby, and they usually put a lower price on.
