Well, I've gone ahead and bought my first ever tablet! One of these:

Am I an idiot?

To be fair, I'm not too concerned about the short battery life, there's a few reviews around which mention it.

When I've had chance to have a play with it I'll stick a review up on the website. If it does what I'm hoping for, for that price, then I'll be a very happy bunny.

How much did u pay ?

matt_fsr · 26 Aug 2014 at 16:01

£42, including free delivery. Probably can't be robbed at that to be fair.

Apart from the controls on it, it looks a better spec than the 60 quid job I bought my youngest a little while ago.

I was thinking of getting one to control my parrot ar drone
Well it's a quad core tablet so it should be able too do everythink you want it to do

Looks alright, has a decent enough insides by the looks of things. Screen could be a little better. Only 1024x600. But still for £40 should do quite nicely.

The only thing will be the poor video quality
Still for 40 pounds you can't complain

It's been delivered!

Why do I have to stay at work when I want to go home and play with my new shiny-shiny?

Let us know how it is...might pick one up for the eldest.

Oh, and enjoy!

Well, seems to be working fine so far! Posting from it seems smooth enough.

So far I've given it the latest firmware and stuck Firefox on it and snesdroid, now for some ROMs!
