2) Approximate diagonal device
3) Country of purchase, the possibility of buying abroad
4) The purchase budget in rubles, dollars or euros according to the exchange. And not in marks, MNT, tanga, Som, UAH, etc. We are not nationalists, just use a known currency for the convenience of members of the forum! (This budget in numbers, instead of "budgetary system, or cheaper," all different concept of budget).
5) Additional functions that the purchased device should have, only if you intend to use them, do not take "to be". For example, the presence of a front camera, NFC, memory card or other characteristics. If you do not plan to use these functions or do not know whether you need them or not, you do not need to write about them, or ask if they are necessary for your tasks.
If you choose the best candidate for purchasing two or more specific devices, it is also worth pointing out the selection criteria (including the budget), and not just what models you choose from.
If the above conditions, for any reason, are not met, I reserve the right to delete non-informative messages, since they lead to littering the topic with leading questions from members of the forum who are trying to help you in choosing. Correctly asked question is half the answer! Publication of referral links, coupons and code words(in any form) is forbidden! On the prohibition of the publication of referral links, coupons.
