I'm needing a tablet to run a dedicated DRO for a mill. That will be it's single purpose. To hang there and show me numbers. Maybe a calculation or two.

My only requirements is that

It works
Cheap
Android 4.0 or newer
7in or larger
Bluetooth

Preferred.  
That I can find some sort of hard case for it that I can mount an articulated arm to it.




For those that have a milling machine or lathe and have further interest on a DRO:http://www.yuriystoys.com/p/android-dro.html?m=1

this

Is what I ARF on every day. Its decent for just cruising the web/ YouTube maybe some apps. There may be something better for you but I got it at work with 20% off after coupon and employee discount.

Edit: didn't read DRO needs

My everyday tablet is an LG vk810.  8", Bluetooth, etc.   I think they run 130-150.  I've had it a couple years, seems to be holding up.

Has anyone ever dealt with the ChiCom unbranded ones?

Those are about the $30 price point. Used as a dedicated application it may be the way I go.
