4gb or 8gb RAM

    Probably a very basic question, but I'm buying an android tablet for my daughter which will be used primarily for browsing, streaming (Netflix/Disney/Spotify and the like), and playing games (PK XD mainly for anyone who is familiar). Would it be enough to get a model with 4gb RAM and 64gb of memory, or is it worth forking out for 8gb RAM/128BG memory?

    Be sure to buy a decent microSD memory card - 64GB or 128GB should be sufficient. And where an app allows it, tell it to use the SD card (instead of internal memory) for storage. Otherwise, if she starts downloading loads of tracks from Spotify and/or programmes from the likes of Netflix, she could find herself running out of memory.

    Here's a 128GB card for STG 12 on Amazon UK…

    If storage is now called memory what is memory called?

    8gb RAM and 128gb storage would be perfect

    Ignore comment about sd card, they can be unreliable and its important to have limits when hoarding crap
