Budget tablet around $400?

[melias24]

Hey guys, so i want a tablet that i can use at night or during the day when i don't feel like sitting at my desktop. Anything real decent for around $400 AUD? I don't mind apple, windows or Android tablet, just as long as it has a big clear display, fast, responsive, good touch screen and possibly be able to have a keyboard attached. 

 

I just want it for general browsing and video viewing.

I'd go with Galaxy Tab S 8.4 or Z3 Tablet Compact, dunno about prices in australia though.

Chack out the asus t100ta, a beast for the price. Also sports full blown desktop windows and a detachable keyboard, so you won't really be missing on any pc functionality (save intensive tasks of course).

Even better: Buy a cheap laptop, much better, and can be used for much more I dont own any tablets, they feel like giant useless smartphones

My company bought me an iPad last year for productivity when on the road. Truthfully it is pretty good and I would definitely recommend it. I think at the $350-$400 price point, it is difficult to beat. Screen is pretty too, and has an overall clean aesthetic as is expected with Apple products. 

 

Apple gets a bad rap around these forums. However some products that they make, they make really well in my opinion. This is one of them.

Yes i would buy an iPad about the only apple product, but if they lowered the price on mac's to what they are actually wroth plus $100-200 more than they are worth to build so they can make money, i'd buy one.
