New tablet for around £200?

My Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is starting to show it's age, and I'd like something a bit bigger, preferably around 12", any recommendations please?

Wife has got the Honor Pad 9 and loves it for general browsing, games and youtube while on the sofa / in bed.
Got a 12" screen and cost £220 a couple of months ago if memory serves me.

Thanks, I'm sitting typing this on an Honor Magic 5 Pro, so that looks like a solid choice, I'll have a look at some reviews.

Hmmmmm After trying a portable monitor I'm leaning towards a tablet as a second monitor but am I limited to just Samsung devices ?

Extend your PC screen to your Galaxy tablet

You are no longer limited to TV and monitors when it comes to extending your computer. Galaxy tablets can mirror your Windows 10 computer! Click for details.

The Pad 9 comes to £213 with the pencil and case, but no keyboard, if I use the 5% voucher and my points, near enough to £200 for me, cheers.

How much does the Pad 9 weigh / I have a Huawei Mediapad 10 and it is quite heavy, about 0.8Kg

I recently got the Xiaomi Pad 6 8GB + 256GB for £230, it's been great so far. The display and speakers are really good, battery life has been excellent and it looks and feels like a really premium device. I got the official cover from AliExpress for £15, it's closer to £30 in the UK.
