Something to think about. Are you an android user or an apple fan?
Go with the one that you prefer.

The Nvidia K1 was a good tablet in its day ... but that was a few years back when the app wasn't so demanding.
If you are wanting a good Android flying tablet, the Huawei M3 or M5 are probably the best you can get.

Out of that list, I'd personally go with the iPad Mini 4.

I'm using the Nvidia with the Mavic Pro. Works fine. No problem.

I just bought a huawei m5 8.5inch and I'm very happy with it.

Like lots of things you'll find on Youtube, that's a common myth.

As mentioned, don't believe everything you read out on the Internet. What I can tell you of my personal experience - using my android phone works, but limited screen size and slower (older Samsung S7 edge). I got a used iPad Mini 3 and it's great for the screen size. The drawbacks I've experienced are flaky connection and terrible performance in rough weather. I think the connection issue is from the Mini 3 having a slower processor. I've flown in near to over 100 degree temps in Cabo, Mexico and when it's upper 90s (F), the tablet will give out on you. Had the same problem flying this year in Iceland in temps in low-mid 30s (F). If you go with Apple, I'd suggest going with the newer Mini 5 or the Air - both have much better CPU. If you gotta go used, maybe you'll have better luck with the Mini 4, but may want to consider an Android with a good CPU. Good luck!

Mini 5 I have used since first came out and it’s been faultless and screen size is perfect as it fits into the jaws of the controller
