Hi,
My daughters Nexus 7 has broken (needs new mainboard) and I have been quoted an eye watering £238.07 to repair it.
Obviously we will not be getting it repaired and will be buying a new one but I am unsure what to get.
My daughter uses it for games and youtube (Minecraft, Fifa etc)
Should we be looking at another Nexus 7 2013 or a newer make/model got a budget of around 200 to 300 quid.
Any advice most welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Lovely screen, excellent performance.
Nexus 7 (2013) is being discontinued. As great a tablet as it is, they made a mess with the lollipop update.
I'd get an i pad air.

Quick, great screen and well built
It is a great tablet for the price. I had one myself for a few months but I sold it when I got my iPad Air 2. Apart from preferring an iOS based tablet I really couldn't fault it. The screen is excellent and it's fast and snappy.
I went the other way...well an iPad Air (1) to the Samsung and happy so far...my wife has the iPad Air 2 though...so might get that come October and new iPad release.
Well to backtrack a bit I had the iPad Air 1, then went to the tab pro 10.1 and then onto the air 2 which I currently have. I jump between devices a lot
By "These guys" don't you mean "you"?
You can also have a look at a list of the best budget tablets here so you make a comparison yourself for which is the best tablet for your daughter.
Isn't there something in the forum rules about advertising?
They both look awful
Even cheaper now. It's now £199!

Even better value...wish I'd waited now! LOL
