Good tablet for kids for Plex?
Good tablet for kids for Plex?
I’m looking for a tablet that I can buy for my kids, so they can watch Plex (connected via a hot spot to my phone) while we’re on long drives.
I don’t need any bells and whistles, nor anything hugely expensive, as they won’t be using them that often.
Does anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking of fire tablets but I’m not sure how well Plex would run.

Id say firetab. They are cheap, they're gonna be on sale in a week or two during prime day. Cost a fraction of what an ipad does. I use one for reading comics and occasionally watching stuff on it. Works great for that purpose
Awesome thanks. Any suggestions on what fire tab? I was thinking either 8 or 10, is the HD worth it?
What do you use to read comics? I use chunky on iOS.
We bought two FireHD 8 Kids, which come with a great case, charging over USB-C and the ability to put a MicroSD card. Considering how cheap MicroSD cards are, it made sense to pick a 128GB for each and download as many movies through Plex as we could into it.
Nice! Thanks! How does Plex downloads work on them? It’s terrible on the iPad I have, very rarely works.
I had some issues initially, but it's been smooth sailing since.
I use comicrack, I have the fire10HD. I think its great. For Comicrack it takes a little bit of getting used to, but once you have it going I promise you'll love it, especially if you have a large library. I have like 8000+ comics, so much easier to read. Theres a pretty good workflow someone made on the comicrack subreddit. Note - comicrack isnt available on the play store, but the apk is on the subreddit
I keep trying to reply, but it’s not working; presumably this instance is overloaded.
Thanks for the answers, if this ends up working.
