    Just get one with a decent processor M8, even the cheapo duel core chinky tablets are OK and a fraction of the price too.

    I don't actually have one, but my kids have cheapo ones from a big supermarket.
    The one in the link will be outstanding as its fairly powerful.
    As long as you get one with min 8GB memory and at least a duel core cpu (min 1.2ghz) you'll be fine

    The various big brand names won't be any different, just a pile dearer

    What I use personally is a Samsung Galaxy S1 (i9100) my daughter gave me, I flashed it to Jelly Beam 4.2.2 and overclocked it.

    Your decision, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Inch is not bad but as a tab user the size is not perfect for carrying. Sometimes 7 inch tab seems very big so 10 inch will be more big. As you would like to use it for playing movies playing games and to read E-books, You can buy any android tab which is over the version 2.3. You can buy Samsung Galaxy Tab or any EDITED OUT can fulfill your demand. Operating system and features is almost same for all Android Tab. So brand shouldn't be a fact according to your demand. I'v bought mine from EDITED OUT you may cheek it.

    Nexus 7 is probably the best out there tbh, but no sd card, ive got an asus fonepad and well happy with it for the price, the voice calling function is an added bonus as well as the sd slot over the Nexus but no hdmi port. It runs xbmc full 1080p with a non neon xaf build effortlessly also

    I've been using one the Sumvision Cyclone voyager Dual core 1GB/16GB, that has 5800mah battery, last time I checked sure a full charge battery shows approx 6/7 hours http://www.ushop247.co.uk/tablet-pc/...16GB-Bluetooth

    The Cyclone Voyager 2 has a 7600mah battery so will have a longer life http://www.ushop247.co.uk/tablet-pc/...16GB-Bluetooth
