Any suggestions? I didn’t mind older/used stuff, or off brand, smaller or foreign stuff. I don’t know if Linux does tablets but I’d be open to that as well.

Battery life isn’t really an issue. I’m not going to be using it that way, it’s just for ease of access at home

    My main “media” device is a refurbished microsoft surface tablet running ubuntu.

    I like it because it was affordable, and it’s not android so you can just install whatever. The main downside for me is battery life (only ~3h of video on full brightness).

    I am not very knowledgeable of how well ubuntu works with accessibility, but do know that you can adjust icon size etc.

        I don’t know much about tablets and opened this thread just to see if I could learn something. I think it might be a good idea to add this detail to the main post. I’ve seen some other people mention battery life as a downside to some options, so if battery life isn’t a factor since it’s gonna be plugged in most of the time, adding it to the body of the post could nudge people to recommend options that they otherwise wouldn’t have bothered to mention.

        Good luck!
