Are the Teclast tablets any decent?
I see takealot has the kindle fire hd 10 for R2800.
Which one would be better?

Teclast. However if you buy books, and stuff on amazon, kindle is nice. you can sideload on the fire which also nice. So it would depend on your use case. Netflix and such will work on the teclast but only SD content. Teclast also has vanilla android and you won't get any updates.
Takealot also has chuwi tablets but priced at around 5k if you don't want to wait and deal with customs.

So yeah you will need to decide what you want from the tablet.

in other news, package is finally in the air, don't know why there was a 4 day shipping delay, flights might have been sparse. At least my 128gig SD card arrived, so I am good to go.

I have the Teclast M40SE. Works well for Netflix, Plex etc. Resolution while streaming is not noticeable. Minor issue is the speakers are not very loud but it is fine if you are holding the tablet. Also tried a few games like Asphalt 9 and performance is good. This cost about R2700 to import last year. Other issue is finding a cover that fits, would be best to order one with the tablet.
 
Nice, seems the buffalo exp option was duty free, or duties were included, usually the next entry after customs arrival would be awaiting payment for duties or some thing along those lines, it isn't generally followed by cleared.

Sigh since when does buffalo hand parcels over to paxi for delivery to pep. It wasn't suppose to be drop shipping. I paid for courier door to door.
Well whatever, both the tablet and cover is in south africa now and on their way to my local pep store 26km away 3 -7 business days.

At least its P for PEP not P for Post Office :-)
 
Finally after 33 days I have my tablet.

Still need to load and setup stuff, but no issues with screen or stuff detected. Pretty chuffed, sadly it isn't a flip cover, only a TPU cover, little annoyed I didn't pay closer attention but I have a universal flip cover I can use, just to protect the screen if needed.

This Dixon is superior https://www.cashcrusaders.co.za/new-goods/dixon-101-hd-tablet-with-android/stockcode17495. Just a pity about the HD and not Full HD display. Not sure why they downgraded it.

That 2gig ram is on the low side, does have android go, so it shouldn't penalize it too much for that. Battery not so good, not too bad for local tablet, but not that impressed by it. For 2.8K (the price of this tablet when not on special) include the 500 odd shipping fee(buffaloex is R517 and duty free on sunsky), 2-3 week wait, you can get the Teclast m40 pro, which is 50% faster, 128gig rom, and 6gig ram, full android 11.

I wouldn't....:)
