Note that both tablets run Android 4.1 Jelly Bean – not the most up-to-date operating system, but fine for these mid-level devices. The processors are also mid to low tier – so undemanding games should run alright. Both tablets are Wi-Fi and 3G enabled, so if you wanted to you can pop in a SIM card to make and receive calls and SMS. The frequencies that they use are 3G 850/2100 MHz, which means that they will work well on Aldi, Telstra and Boost networks.
You don’t have to use a SIM, as they will both work well as Wi-Fi only tablets.
