I’m looking for a tablet that I can buy for my kids, so they can watch Plex (connected via a hot spot to my phone) while we’re on long drives.

I don’t need any bells and whistles, nor anything hugely expensive, as they won’t be using them that often.

Does anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking of fire tablets but I’m not sure how well Plex would run.

    We bought two FireHD 8 Kids, which come with a great case, charging over USB-C and the ability to put a MicroSD card. Considering how cheap MicroSD cards are, it made sense to pick a 128GB for each and download as many movies through Plex as we could into it.

      Nice! Thanks! How does Plex downloads work on them? It’s terrible on the iPad I have, very rarely works.
