Update: Although this tablet seems to work well with DJI Go, it does not seem to be a good fit with DJI Fly.
I'm now in the market for a new drone - either a Mini2 or a Mavic 2 Pro - and I was thinking about tablets. Happen to be in Costco today and they had the following model on sale for $90 including a 32gb Lexar card. I'm not sure if the card would be acceptable on the drone, but what the heck.
So I did a bit of research after opening the Tab A up and found the DJI Go app in the Google Play Store. The DJI Fly app was not listed. I'm not at all familiar with Android devices, but I was able to stumble my way through sideloading the DJI Fly app and got it running. Dronelink was in the Play Store, so installed that too.
I would expect I'll have a new drone within a week and will let you know how it works out. But the primary goal of this post is to let you know Costco has these for $90.
