Hisense 7" Tablet or Windows Nextbook 8" Tablet?

The sero 8 model is a lot better than sero 7.I dont suggest windows tablet,if you intend on playing games or downloading many apps.Get the vodacom lenovo smart tab 3 for 999(phone as many stores as possible and check game/makro).If you are willing to spend 1500 ,buy an Asus fonepad but buy the me175cg model and use a R100 kalahari voucher.The fonepad is a decent tablet and has a sim slot

I recently went through the whole process of buying a pad. Also had a look at the Hisense specs which seems like a good option. Vodacom doesn't have any stock of their tab so that didn't work out. Settled for the Asus Fonepad, as astroiboi suggested, which I'm very happy with, R1 500 at Dion-Wired. The only downside to these sub R2000 tabs is that the screens are not IPS and there for viewing angles and sunlight readability aren't so good, also stuttering when you scroll, don't know if that's just Android. I was also considering the Nextbook but many complained about the screen. Proline sells a Windows tab with IPS display for R2000 at Incredible. Much better to spend a bit extra, I have a IPS monitor and two phones with IPS and it makes a huge difference. I specifically wanted a Android pad with phone abilities that's why I went for the Asus, otherwise I would've bought the Proline.

I tested one out in-store and I was unimpressed. The display had some lag and it blurred when scrolling. i rather went for the Galaxy tab 4 for R3000 at Dion Wired. The next best deal would have been the Lenovo A5500 for R2600 and the best of the basic tabs would be the Asus FonePad and the Lenovo in that price range.

Search the forums for Nextbook threads, the screen and limited 8GB memory are the biggest downside. The Proline is also a Windows tab but with 16gb memory and a far better screen. On the other hand, if your budget is R1500, go for the Nextbook ;0)
