Here’s a principle that Android users and fans can apply to both software and hardware: Android is all about diversity and the freedom of choice. But while the top-end race gets all the attention, there is a sector that has become increasingly interesting to watch, as the aforementioned race gets more intense: the ultra low-cost Android tablet market.
So, we've set to answer a seemingly crazy question. How far will $100-$125 get you when it comes to purchasing an Android tablet?
Not much if you’re planning to impress your buddy, owner of a new iPad. But if you’re willing to acknowledge that you do get what you pay for, you’ll find that basic web browsing and multimedia rendering are just a couple of tasks that all the following tablets are able to perform with ease. So let’s not waste any more time and take a quick look at the Android tablets you can buy for around $100-$125. Just don’t expect any mind-blowing specs!
While there are other tablets out there in the $100-$125 price range, they are all almost the same when it comes to the specs.

As expected, all tablets in this price range have a 7-inch screen running at 800 by 480 and feature a 1GHz single-core processor alongside 512MB of RAM. Just make sure you read a few customer reviews before ordering one!
