And that's not because of my OS preference - it's because Apple is really the only company that takes tablets in this price class seriously in terms of both hardware and software. It's a shame you ruled out the iPad, because that's honestly my pick for a tablet in this price range. It's more of an entry laptop that happens to be usable as a tablet. The Surface Go is inside your budget, but I'm not sure that I'd get it for basic purposes like that. Acer's is mediocre, and the Pixel Slate is both too expensive and very laggy. There aren't many to start with, and the experience is. A Huawei MediaPad M5, maybe? Samsung's Galaxy Tab S3 is too old, and the Tab S4 is beyond your budget. Lots of tablets under $200, but go higher and your choices are pretty thin.
#Chrome os tablets android
the Android tablet market is currently split between basic-but-cheap and expensive-but-slightly-outdated. You're probably in for a bit of a rough ride here. I’m sure it will only be a matter of time before we see even higher-spec models being. If we continue to see success with Chrome OS tablets. The latest models from HP and Lenovo are definitely offering better specs. I guess my price would be under $400? I'm fine with saying a few bucks for some compromise. We’ve already seen a number of manufacturers improve on the original Chromebook Duet. I am not a fan of slow/sluggish but function. General use tablet for web surfing, e-reading and some YouTube. I personally am not a fan of iOS so I will not be going the iPad route (sorry). I believed I may have ruled out windows due to the price point below but could be wrong. I'm in the market for a Android, Chrome OS or even Windows tablet and am not sure what is the best bang for my buck or which direction I should go in.
