No worries!

I'm like that all the time.  Tongue

I've never found tablets very appealing. I bought a small, cheap one once... not much bigger than my phone... but found that even that was too big and heavy to comfortably use for long periods in-hand as you would a phone. And other than the bigger screen size I don't see the benefit of them compared to a laptop because they're limited to running mobile apps. So for me it's just a phone for apps and a laptop for programs because I can't think of any good reason to want the middle ground.

I'm about to buy my 4th.
I keep breaking them.
At home, I use the pc.
At work, I use the tablet.
I try to use the phone for just calls but good for emergencies like now.
I buy chinese ones. Think they are crap? think again.

Retina display, quad core, quad graphics, 10 point touch screen, etc.
For a quarter of the price. This last one also dual boots to win10 also.
Check reviews on top 10 chinese tablets. It's an eye opener.

Don't do it.

Waste of money.

You don't need it.

Save your money for something you truly need.

Though I could be wrong.

I love Chinese crap Big Grin That tablet I got was it but despite it's not meeting my needs one thing I will say for it is that it had no bloatware and came rooted straight out of the box... so I got to explore Android a bit with it. And I used to have an expensive HDD recorder for recording TV but now all I have is a cheap, 20 quid, Chinese gizmo that I'm a million times more happy with... you just plug in an SD card and it records in excellent quality onto that and then just transfer that to a HDD and off you go again. So I never run out of space because I can buy as much storage as I want, which is something you can't do with HDD recorders or sky+ boxes etc. So I'm much more happy this way even though it's a very cheap and simple machine. Basically there are a lot of hidden gems in Chinese crap Wink

I keep watching reviews.

It's not helping.

Perks: I do a lot of cooking, and the keyboard magnet is really strong and can pop up on your refrigerator.

Also, with Android N (which is in beta) it is WAY more tablet friendly. Dual screens, multitasking.

And it's preeettttyyyy.....

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
