How about another Nexus 7 for her? She's probably quite familiar with it because she uses yours.

People will hate me for this, and you didn't put a budget so I will suggest but what about an iPad mini? Its easy to understand and portable.

Sony Xperia Z Tablet.

I own one personally, and I love it. It's super thin. Thinner than an iPhone 5. Super light weight. I picked it up for $500AUD. Totally worth it. Check it out ^_^


Did I mention it's waterproof?

Thanks guys, but I was thinking on a budget of maximum 150€, because their is a nexus 7 in house and if needed she can use the nexus, but for her games i want another tablet for her. I think the only good option is the galaxy tab 3 than.

I have a galaxy tab 3, and it has had no problems yet! I have had it for about 1 year and literally no problems. it runs like a champ, and does everything I want it to, the onthing I hate about it is how long it takes to turn on it takes like 2 minutes. but other than that its good.

are you talking about the 7inch Samsung tab 3? i just got that for christmas, and no complaints so far. im actually amazed. my old tablet had a 7000mah battery, and would only last a day of use. this tablet, i haven't used it much, but its been on for 3 days, 22 hours. so basically 4 days. and the battery is still at 33%. this is with 4 hours of on screen time. that plus it has a IR blaster, which is really nice. let me put it this way, i wasnt really intrested at it at all until i got it, now i always carry it with me

Thanks everybody, this topic can be closed, I dind't buy the samsung galaxy tab 3, I got one as a present from my isp if I would extend my service plan for 2 other years, so I did it because I am already 15 years at that provider. My mother is happy, I am happy. So thanks and best wishes for the new year.
