Morning All

I have the HONOR PAD X9 and at the time it was a great deal for £150 with discount …..And sound, spec wise it’s perfect for me for Netflix, YouTube

Her current tablet is old and slow!

This would be used for online shopping, news reading so nothing to stressful however I’d like it to have some future proofing! Budget £150 - £200

Many thanks in advance!

If she’s an iPhone user get her an iPad for sure.

She has an iPhone SE! Just about to upgrade that for her! Are the iPad minis expensive

iPad 9th gen used would be just over budget with an eBay code. Eg

Apple iPad 9th Gen (2021) - All Sizes & Colours - Wi-Fi Only - Very Good | eBay

Apple iPad 9th Gen (2021) - 64GB / 256GB - Wi-Fi Only. As well as a great value iPad, you will also receive You’re getting a great device at a great price! This device doesn't include its original box.

Not many left in stock, seems they have been selling quickly.

9th gen is very capable device.

Are the iPad minis expensive

iPad mins TOOOOO small for general use, particularly reading text.

Lenovo do a good selection and often have money off offers?

Future proofing

Apple 2022 10.9-inch iPad (Wi-Fi, 64GB) - Blue (10th generation)​

but £150 over your budget on the rain forest.

Thanks for the feedback! I’ll speak to mum and see what she thinks!

Got my 75 year old mum a 2020 refurb ipad from amazon. Much more straightforward for her than an android tablet and performant enough for anything she uses it for.
