Hi there.

My 7 year old is after a new tablet for Christmas and I would be really grateful for some advice on which one to get.

He has had a 7" Fire Tablet for many years and whilst he loved it (particularly the battery life), he needs a bit of an upgrade:

Things we would like:

Preferably 3/4 GB RAM
Decent battery life
SD card slot
Android (as opposed to Amazon) - my son's biggest complaint was that he was unable to download from the Play Store

Any advice on what to get would be much appreciated.
 
Hi there.

One other quick thing, if I may.

I have noticed, having watched a number of videos, that there are two ways of getting the Playstore on the tablet:

Sideload it (easy) or using Fire Toolbox (more advanced).

Is it worth the bother of doing the second method?

Seems to give a more stock Android experience and would appear to allow you to get rid of a load of bloatware.
