Would appreciate some recommendations because Reddit is of course infested with China Bad brain worms and will insist anything Chinese is E Waste.

However, I also know fuck all about tablets. The only important things I’ve noted so far is that it:

  1. Needs more than 4GB RAM. 6-8 is noticeably better.

  2. Root accessible to debloat it (if necessary)

  3. Good keyboard compatibility.

  4. Small. Its to replace the bulk of carrying a laptop around, so I’d prefer iPad mini sort of size.

  5. Long lasting + reliable (not E-waste).

Those seem to be my only requirements really. Its main use would for writing/researching on.

I’ve got a Redmi phone that I’m very happy with for how cheap it was, pretty much always worked flawlessly, good battery life, shite camera (don’t care about that anyway), does everything I want it to do. Could do with debloating but I never bothered.

    The aldocube stuff w the helio g99 are not bad. I think they have a mini at 8 inches and another one that’s 10. All unlockable with the mtkclient stuff.

    They advertise as 12gb but actually have 6+6 swap, that’s still in your range.
