Like the Fire tablets and Amazon’s various side-projects, the Hudl effectively acted as a portal to Tesco’s own digital services, including its streaming services and e-book store, all of which have been closed down. Tesco are aiming the Hudl 2 at the UK families, and to make this a better option than other tablets on the market (Amazon Fire cough cough, iPad Mini cough. The Hudl is built to take on the Kindle Fire and, just like the Kindle Fire, it has a whole host of customisations designed to make shopping with its manufacturer even easier.
