any recommendations for an Android tablet?  I don't want top end, just something functional, but with a 10 inch screen

My Asus tab just died after 5 years and I replaced it with an iPad. They had them on sale for $249 on Prime Day and I couldn’t pass that up. But if I wanted another Android, I’d probably go with the Galaxy Tab A.

I know it’s impossible to completely quit Google, but their privacy issues and their politics have been a real turnoff recently.

I think that concern exists with just about every company that sells tech  :biggrin:

Yes, but Apple isn't really in a position to censor or outright stifle political speech. Google is and does.

Yeah, I hear you on the privacy issues.  Not happy about that.

Yeah, well Apple's CEO is likely offended personally at some of their stances.   :rolleyes:

And just to be clear, I am rolling my eyes at him, not organization banned.   :naughty:
