Hudl
The book I read to research this post was Hudl For Dummies by Rosemary Hattersley which is an excellent book which I bought on kindle. The Hudl is a low priced android tablet sold exclusively by the supermarket chain Tesco in Britain and it has things like your location and time settings set automatically due to it only being sold in Britain. It has a 3MP camera on the rear and a 2MP one on the front. It has to be connected to a wireless network in order to work. It does stream television via several free apps and via the wireless network. It ues wi-fi direct and Android 4.0 which most recent Android tablets do. There is things like BBC iplayer which is free and lets you catch up on tv programmes and Sky Go which is free to Sky subscribers. If you don't have a Sky subscription you have to pay individually to download programmes, I think the Hudl retail for £49.95 so is one of the cheapest tablets and also comes with various services offered by tesco. You can use an internet cafe to get on the internet with it. It has 16 GB of storage and will work with a micro SD card up to 32 GB for additional storage and has a quad-core processor. You can password protect data on the Hudl but not on the micro SD card so must copy anything important onto your Hudl. It is a good idea to set up a Google account if you haven't got one as you can store additional stuff in Google Drive as you can on a Windows computer. I really enjoyed reading this book and I think it is a great shame the Hudl is only available in Britain. It has also got a scratchproof glass screen and many owners buy a bluetooth speaker to go with it especially if they play video and audio on it. There are also protective cases available and there are various music and video streaming services like Spotify and Blinkbox you can use with it.
