I'd assume most people here would lean to Apple for most decisions, but I'd really recommend this tablet if you don't need a real workhorse tablet (and I don't think most people do). From a media consumption standpoint it blows iPads out of the water. Hands down. Is the picture better on an iPad? Sure. But when I weigh that vs the huge pain in getting movies and TV shows onto an iPad it's not even a close decision. Around the house the iPads get used occasionally but they never leave the house, while we wouldn't dream of traveling without our fire tablets. Kids have 8s and we have 10s. It's a breeze to transfer Plex movies to an SD card and pop it into the fire tablets. I often download videos from YouTube for the kids and put them on their tablets too. Super easy.
