With the Boxing day sales approaching I am planning to buy a tablet for home use.

It will solely be used to watch Netflix, YouTube, read websites and play an occasional game.
(so it will be a pure entertainment device)

Doesn't have to run Android 7.0, but I suppose it should at least run 5.0 so it has some life left.
This means  I am happy with a older model

Don't really want to spend over $250 (but hoping the sales will give me wriggle room to get a more expensive tablet cheaper)

Would consider Ipad but think its out of my Budget.

Is 10" to big for my needs, or about right?
Any min screen specs - considering viewing is the biggest use I would have thought this is the most important thing.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
