This year, I'm looking to upgrade my tablet and no-contract phone. Though my current devices are still functioning quite well, they only have single-band WiFi and I'm having difficulty getting a reliable 2.4GHz signal (it's a long battle with my carrier and multiple router swaps). On top of that, the OS's are quite old (Android 4 & 5) and some of the apps I want are now requiring Android 5 or 6 and up. The latest version of Android is now at 10.
Anyway, time to upgrade. So I'm looking cheap.
For the tablet, I'm primarily interested in a Fire Tab 7 (2019). I anticipate the price to be around $25~30. All I need the tablet to do is play games and watch videos. I might possibly consider a Fire HD 8 (2018) if the price is right after a trade-in.
For the no-contract phone, I'm looking for dual-band WiFi, 16~32GB on-board storage, mSD slot, and running Android 8.
For gifts, I'm looking for several Echo Show 5s, a Chromebook, small BT speaker, and several 128GB mSD cards.
I may add more items later if my wants suddenly become needs
