A customer looking to invest in the best tablet has multiple options to consider. Most often than not, people find themselves at crossroads due to the different options of touchscreen tablets available. However, the psyche of most people while buying gadgets is that they look for something that is easy to use, sleek and affordable. Sometimes the price is the deciding factor on whether an individual would buy a gadget or not.

• Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 ($244 outright with Sprint LTE)
  Though not one of the best tablet from the Samsung family, this device is good in the price department. The screen is 7-inch with a resolution of 1024×600 pixels and a density of 170 ppi. The battery capacity is 4000mAh and the processor is a dual-core chip. The general make of the tab is lighter than its counterparts. It is also prettier and more reliable than most of the other devices that are launched by Samsung. This can prove to be the best tablet for kids use.
• Verizon Ellipsis 7 ($249 with no contracts or $0.01 with service agreements)
  This is another tablet that is priced economically. The operating system is Android 4.2 (which is definitely outdated, but for the price paid, this is the best). The battery capacity is 4000mAh and the camera is 3 megapixels with no autofocus or flash.
• Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 ($300 with no service agreements except with Sprint)
  This is the spin-off of the Galaxy Tab 3 7.0. Not many changes to the configuration of the Tab 3 7.0 except that the RAM was increased by 50% making it 1.5 gigs. The screen resolution is increased 1280×800. The processor has been upgraded to the quad-core punch. The overall design is slimmer than its predecessor. There were no visible changes to the battery.
• Amazon Kindle Fire HDX ($279 for AT&T and Verizon, also get some special offers and no contract)
  The display is pretty small which is unlikely for a tab, however, the resolution is brilliant at 1920×1200 pixels with a density of 323 ppi. The processor on this is the fast and amazing quad-core 2.2 GHz Snapdragon 800. The other features include 2GB of RAM (which is quite generous) and Amazon claims that the battery can last for many hours. The flipside, however, is the absence of microSD slots, which means that there cannot be additional storage.
• LG G Pad 8.3 ($100 with contracts at Verizon or $300 outright)
  This can be considered as one of the top tablets and is a bargain for the price paid. It is a handsome tablet, large but comfortable. The display has a resolution of 1920×1200 pixels IPS screen and the processor is quad-core 1.7 GHz Snapdragon 600 CPU. It has a 2GB RAM as well as a 4600mAh battery capacity. All in all, this qualifies as the best tablet to buy for an affordable price.
