So I have found myself needing a budget windows 8 tablet, and when I say budget, I mean budget.

I quickly stumbled across the 'Linx' tablet range, Linx being a company based in the UK. They are offering 7",8" and 10" W8 tablets, and the 10" one seems to be the only available with a keyboard addition. The cost seems to range from £80 to £160 for the 7" to the 10".

I'm posting here to see if anyone has one, or if anyone can provide any information about how good they actually are.

As far as I can see:
Pros: Low price (mainly), IPS display, SD card slot, reviews on rainforest are generally very good

Cons: Res of 1280x800 for all sizes (Since I would need the 10" one this is a big con), also - unsure of Linx's warranty and customer service etc.


What do you think?
 
My only issue I'm having with the tablet hardware itself is the 1GB of RAM. I'm finding I'm over 90% memory usesage almost all the time I'm using the tablet, and I'm not trying to do anything strenuous.

That's interesting, does the RAM usage actually affect the performance when its at >90% or is it still relatively OK?
