Help Picking Out a Tablet

I am looking for a tablet to mount in my car, doesn't have to be super powerful but good battery life is a must because I need it to stay charged when my car is off. What is the best option (Under $110 would be great) and I need 8.0 Inches or less.

Tegra note 7 is a good choice. It's 7", quite powerful for the price, and you can get it quite cheap. The sound quality is pretty good with it's front facing speakers (unless you want to plug it into the car)

Maybe HP Stream 7? If you don't want Windows, the Tegra Note 7, Nexus 7 or Galaxy Tab 4.

Nexus 7 or Ipad Mini.

No to both of them. My mom has the nexus seven. It sucks, the screen looks like shit, it feels weird and it's just uncomfortable. The ipad is just a horrible waste of money

Edit- I think they actually made a better nexus 7 and it doesn't suck, so look into that if that's a thing
