Tesco Hudl 2

Launched in October 2014, the Tesco Hudl 2 follows the supermarket giant's first venture into the tablet market with the original Android-powered Hudl. Given that Tesco isn't exactly renowned for its tech innovation, the first Hudl caught us a little...

Massively improved screen quality ; Great speakers for watching films ; Really helpful and comprehensive guide ; New child safety features

Battery drains quickly ; Heavy for smaller hands

Tesco Hudl 2 review

It's really cheap, but it's really rather nice

Great value for money ; Decent HD screen ; Handy parental controls

Poor battery life ; Tesco launcher sluggish ; Limited internal storage

This is a stylish, desirable, and cheap full-featured Android tablet that will satisfy the whole family. It completely outshines virtually everything in the same price bracket. You'll be impressed at just how much Tesco's Hudl 2 offers for your money.

Tesco Hudl 2 review

At this price there's little to grumble about – this is a good budget tablet, but we would like a better music performance for the full five

Great value for money Good HD screen MicroSD card slot Easy to use Fast performance Tesco features can be ignored

Battery life could be better Camera is very poor

The Hudl 2 is a decent little tablet that requires a little understanding and leeway when it comes to balancing performance with value, because it offers plenty of both. In many respects it can take the fight to some of the pricier Android tablets out...

Tesco Hudl 2 review

The first Tesco Hudl tablet may have come as a surprise, not least because it was more than a half-decent Android tablet for a rock-bottom price and sold 750,000 units, but that it was a success despite bearing a supermarket chain's branding. It left...

Fast processor and healthy 2GB of RAM means apps and actions are speedy and smooth, very nice Full HD screen for the price, lightweight and premium feel, child safety options are great for a family with young children

The cameras are just ok despite being better than last year's model, sound through the stereo speakers isn’t great at higher volume, battery life when running for a while isn’t as good as some rivals

On this evidence the Tesco Hudl 2 will have even tech rivals worried and wondering how they can compete with such versatile tablet. And we even include Google in that, as the next Nexus has its work cut out - who'd have thought the prime competition...

Tesco Hudl 2 could be the best budget tablet ever (hands-on) - Pocket-lint

Nobody, not even Tesco, expected last year's Hudl Android tablet to be such a runaway hit, but runaway hit it sure was. To date, Tesco has sold over 750,000

Tesco Hudl 2 review

One of the best budget Android tablets to date, Tesco has done the unthinkable and stopped selling its Hudl 2. It's still a great deal if you can find one, though. Here's our Hudl 2 review.

One of the best budget Android tablets to date, Tesco has done the unthinkable and stopped selling its Hudl 2. It's still a great deal where available, but be warned that many people are selling it at almost double its £99 price at Tesco - just because...

Hudl 2 vs Kindle Fire HDX comparison

Here we compare Amazon and Tesco tablets - Hudl 2 vs Kindle Fire HDX - explaining where and how they differ and how you should spend your money.

The Hudl 2 is the clear winner here. It's much cheaper (unless you find the Fire HDX on offer) and has a rear camera and expandable storage. The killer, though, is that it runs plain Android and gives you access to Googles apps and services including...

Tesco Hudl 2 vs iPad mini 3 comparison

As mentioned above, the Tesco Hudl 2 is one of the best budget tablets you can buy, at just £129 for what is a good quality tablet.

Considering the enormous price difference, it's hard not to recommend the Hudl 2 here. Save £190 and buy the budget tablet. You'll get a good screen, good performance, good design and decent cameras, and you'll have all that money to spend on something...

Tesco Hudl 2 vs Nexus 7 tablet comparison

The Nexus 7 was the Android tablet that changed everything. Launched in 2012 it was the first non-Apple tablet that was really worth having, and not just for the price. A year or so later and Tesco changed the game once more with the original Tesco...

Let's be straight on this: the only reason not to choose the Hudl 2 over the Nexus 7 is if you are opposed to Tesco holding anonymous data on your online actions. And even then you can just switch off the Tesco services. The Nexus 7 is better looking...
