Anyone got one? Thinking of getting a refurb from argos for £90 but not sure if they're a bit slow nowadays?

Had mine since 2012 and it's still perfect. Loads of crazy crap installed too. I love it.

Still happy with mine. Maybe it is a little slower than the latest models but it depends on what you want to do with it. I don't use mine for games but I find it perfectly usable for web browsing and media streaming.

Had mine for over 12 months now. Works fine for streaming from my NAS box HD movies.

Don't play and big games on it so can't comment on their performance.

Treat it with respect and it should last.

Jeff.

I have both versions the older one definitely has got more sluggish and is sometime unresponsive . A complete reset appears to sort it out for a while though and then it's pretty usable .

Mine is still working fine

The only apps that get a bit sluggish for me are the google ones, so for this I have disabled auto updates on most of the google apps (just run the version that initial came with kitkat)
