Need advice. Migrating from cell phone to larger device. [View all]
Long story short, been using Android cell phone for 100% of internet/digital needs. Time to add a more functional device.
I have experience in computer builds, but not ready to go there, yet.
Looking for interim solution. Cheap, but with a keyboard. Display larger than cellphone, for watching Netflix etc.
USB ports so I can dump my cellphone memory cards.
Having been solely dependent on cellphone, am tending to think a touchscreen would be really missed.
I'm used to the idea of being able to upgrade/swap components, but realize that is highly unlikely, for what I'm looking at now.
Bluetooth, for audio. Full size keyboard is best (USB?) Don't like Bluetooth keyboards, lag is off-putting.
I don't need it to be really portable, so size/weight not factors.
I don't want to have to buy an OS (ie, Win).
I especially want local storage, not a fan of the Cloud. USB HDD is fine for me.
Am I looking for a tablet? Laptop? Hybrid? Cheaper is better, under $300.
Any advice?
