Hi Guys
Looking to purchase a tablet for Skype usage, emails, etc.
It's for someone else, as a gift.
Looking at the eBay options, most $100 tablets have poor front camera.
Any recommendations?

Increase your budget by another $100 and you're in business.
Try the Lenovo 10" tab
http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/lenovo-tab-…
The specs that'll interest you is this:
Memory: 2GB RAM
Camera: Rear: 8MP Auto-Focus Front: 5MP Fixed-Focus
Display: 10.1" FHD IPS LCD (1920x1200)
And some other options
Samsung with 3G / non-3G model

you could consider the Samsung Galaxy Tab E series
http://www.dwidigitalcameras.com.au/astore/Samsung-Tab-E-C14…
They're kind of low end IMO (namely the 1.5GB of RAM and 1280 x 800 resolution) but it is a pretty cheap device at $269 ($280 if you want the 3G variant).
front facing 2 megapixel camera however.
Officeworks and JB Hifi sells the Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70 for a little less than $300. This tablet is much, much better than the Samsung and has a 5 mpx front facing camera with a full HD display, and 2GB of RAM.
The Selfie cam takes OK quality images
This is literally the cheapest 10" tablet that you can buy in a brick / mortar shop that has the above specs.
Ok thanks,
Will consider those options…
It's just that they're out of the budget, being a gift for someone's first tablet.
Im happy to order from overseas, as Ill need it in a months time.
Thanks
What about Nexus7 or a smaller sized Galaxy tab?
Have a look at http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Tablet-PC-c-428.html
I have bought items from Banggood before, had no troubles (but ever had to return/fix an item though)
I see some of the tablets are 2mp front cam so should be fine for skype.
does it have to be 10inch? 8 inch wont do?
Thanks PVA,
Ended up ordering the 'Teclast X98 Air III Intel Z3735F 1.83GHz 9.7 Inch Android 5.0 Tablet'
Cost is $199, less coupon; net cost $162, which was spot on the budget.
Much appreciated.
post back what you think of it as I am on the hunt for a tablet as well, just not in a hurry for one.
Will probably take a month to arrive, but if its good, then awesome.
Ive already posted it as a deal, crediting you.
@movieman:
hope its fine, $160 seems a deal.
Looking for Xmas Pressies… what was the verdict on the Teclast?
So Im guessing Im too optimistic with my price range.
Will need to reconsider.
