Looking for a Tablet Recommendation

[Packhunter]

Hi,

I am looking for an 8 inch tablet with say 4 GB of ram or more.

 

Anyone got any good recommendations? Or a way to find precisely what I am looking for? Since it seems general websites (Amazon, Best Buy) aren't doing the job.

Budget is in the $200-$400 range Canadian
I need basic wifi, bluetooth would be nice same with camera.

The app I use 90% of the time is Kindle, one of the main problems I have with my old tablet is because of how many books I have, and how little free ram I have it's always lagging up.

One of the problems I have with Amazon, Staples, and other online sellers is sometimes they show me a 'great match'. Then I look in the specs, and whoops we know you want 4 GB of ram, but in reality is 4 GB of HD space.

Your choices... aren't great. I was about to point to the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite, but that has 3GB of RAM. Lenovo's Tab M8 doesn't go beyond 3GB, either. How much RAM does your existing tablet have? If you're coasting on 1GB or 2GB, 3GB might be enough.

 

I'd be tempted to point to a refurb iPad mini 5 instead. It's $50 above your budget and technically has 3GB of RAM as well, but iPadOS is much more efficient with memory. You can't buy books directly from the Kindle app (you have to go to the website), but it'll be great for reading and will have a better overall tablet app ecosystem.

My current tablet has 2 GB of ram, and on a good day 400 MB of it are free if not less.:P

I did some checking Huilun, and I found the tablet your recommend with 64 GB of HD space, and 4 GB of ram for $169.99

I am no fan of Samsung due some problems with them, but my current tablet (Galaxy Tab A 2017) was built like a brick, and I can easily do a direct transfer from one to another.
