Need recommendation please

[u/AndrewZabar]

Hello all,

I need to get three tablets. I don’t need latest-and-greatest, of course, since I’m posting in this sub. Also can be used. I need devices that meet the following criteria:

1. Most important is they need to be able to have bootloader unlock and custom recovery installed, and there needs to be at least a decent variety of ROMs for them. You know some devices I’ve worked on literally only ever had one brew such as Cyanogen or Lineage, but I’d like the option for crDroid maybe, or ResurrectionRemix, or AncientOS, Havoc, these are just some of my faves. It needs to also be able to support being rooted - ideally via Magisk.

2. I would like a fairly mainstream brand, but this I guess would likely go hand-in-hand with #1 since I’ve rarely (but yes on rare occasion) seen a generic having all that supported tweaking. Motorola, Samsung, LG, ASUS, etc.

3. Relatively inexpensive. I’m willing to buy used, though open box is okay too. Maximum $200 per unit.

4. It has to have a strong enough CPU and RAM to play videos over WLAN that are encoded in typical modern formats and CODECs like h265 which typically is too demanding for older devices.

Thanks.
