I've been using an Amazon tablet with Fully Kiosk for a few months but it frankly sucks ass. Keeps resetting itself or kicking back to the Amazon home screen to name a few issues.

If money isn't a factor, what tablet do you think would be the dream choice for integrating as a wall mountable Hass tablet?

Fully Kiosk is a great app but still very hacky, so I'd like a tablet that doesn't require workarounds to keep it in kiosk mode.

I hate telemetry and spyware as well so I guest that puts anything Amazon or Google based out of the equation.

Well...

TBH, I've not seen a battery bulge (in a tablet... seen plenty others...), but I do have a tablet which doesn't seem to hold it's charge as well as it used to.

So, have I done in-depth long-term testing... no.

Personally, I just got some of these USB switches and was more interested in whether I could control it easily (I could)

Re: LineageOS - yeah, I agree, if you can find the right tablet AND it's supported, then definitely flash it.

You might still need to download the latest webview component though.
