Looking for a 10inch android tablet under $200 to wallmount and monitor home automation/appliances.

I am thinking to get "Lenovo Tab M10 Plus 3rd Gen Bundle 10.61" (4GB / 64GB)… $199.00" from Aldi https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/811296
But as we are into black friday deals now, I am wondering any better option in my budget? or should I buy this from Aldi or other shop?

Thanks,.

  That tab you can get for cheaper. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/802974. I got one from this deal specifically for wall mounting. It has been working perfectly for that purpose so far.

      I also rooted and installed this for charge limiting since it was going to be continually plugged in. Here is the TWRP build I flashed onto mine in case you're interested.

      For the actual Magisk install process, I wrote this down for myself in case I needed it in the future, but you may find it useful in getting started with the process:

      1. Download TWRP at the XDA thread above
      2. Install using this guide. Main command is fastboot flash recovery twrp.img.
      3. Boot into TWRP then run adb shell, ls -al --color $(find /dev|grep by-name$), copy down the location for boot.
      4. Run dd if=<boot location> of=/sdcard/boot.img
      5. Reboot tablet, go into Magisk app, click install, select created boot.img file to patch.
      6. Boot into fastboot mode again, then flash the patched boot.img file with fastboot flash boot <magisk patched boot.img>".

      Bear in mind this isn't exactly a simple process if you haven't messed around with command line and stuff before. Do your own research.

  Which app you use for home monitoring/automation? Any app which an mix and match various or just using individual app for each of them,i.e. google home, alexa, ring, …etc?
