What Affordable Android Tablets Are Avaliable?

Yeah, definitely try to get a Nexus 7 as it got a bit cheaper for black friday in many stores. It's really worth it, mostly because of the native android OS and update support as it's a Google device. Access to Play store is a thing that a tablet must have, yet many of the lesser known brands of tablets have blocked it.

But if your wallet can't afford a 200$ tablet, you have to make a few compromises. I'd recommend that you take a look at some of these cheaper ones http://www.mawista.com/blog/en/top-cheapest-tablets-for-students/ . Mainly build for reading ebooks but they're fine for other stuff too like browsing and media.

So you can find plenty of tablets under 100$ that will fit your needs.
 
Go for the Nexus 7 or the Nexus 10 which will be around the same price as the 16GB iPad when it arrives.Or wait for iPad Mini shoud be around R3500-R4500 or get a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7inch

Ok not to sound like a Apple hater but look at what your getting for the same price hardware wise. Plus iPad Mini 16gb for $459 or Nexus 7 3G 32gb for $299? I think the iPad mini will be much more. A better option willl be to get a 2nd Gen iPad if possilble.

Ha ha, why do you all think I'm a guy? I'm a girl - just had to point that out before I replied. ha ha and I'm 19 years old - none of my friends can help me with this info.

Well, I don't mind typing on a small-ish screen - I mean, I have a small sized Samsung galaxy phone anyway so I'm used to getting used to screen sizes.

Well, it seems like everyone thinks a Nexus 7 is a good option - I did too until I found out that it does not have 3G. But I can use my android phone as a hotspot? I better find out how because it may just be an option.

I've heard about Esquire and I'll try zones.co.za - these places are safe to buy from, right?

Yup, might choose to sell my Netbook - it's a Dell one, pretty much brand new, too.

Thank you all so much for the help :)

Nexus 7 is on special at Rectron for 25 November at R3000 plus the Nexus will get latest updates.

OOOOOOR you can buy a wifi hotspot device its about R900
