Recommended Devices

Here is a list of the devices that work the best for me when it comes to watching videos and multitasking between clicks, offers, and surveys.

Cheap Mobile Devices:

  • Moto G Power & Moto G Stylus: These phones are fast and are very well equipped with the latest tech. They also have the added benefit of running the latest android OS at a great price of $99 and $199 if you buy them on with Google Fi. Overall, these phones are great for running the swagbucks mobile apps or any other videos due to their long lasting battery. Google Fi sells them as unlocked and can easily be a great budget phone. 
  • Amazon Fire/ Fire HD tablet: this is a nice cheap tablet from a reputable company and has decent reviews considering the bargain price of $49 for the non-HD and $89 for the new HD version.

    Older options: 
  • RCA voyager tablet: This can be found at walmart for about $30-$50.
  • HP Stream 7: A lot of people online are recommending this device as great option for multitasking. Check out amazon and walmart for the best price. Typically ranges between $50-$199.

Cheap PCs:

  • Dell T3400/T3500: These PCs are old but are a great bargain for the speed that you get out of the Xeon quad core processer. This type of processor is a few steps behind from today's i5 and i7 processors. However, considering that I use mine to multitask between three browsers with multiple tabs open and videos playing in the background, it doesn't do too bad. It runs 3D CAD programs flawlessly and gaming emulators as well. We are using these primarily for money making, so hardcore gaming is not an issue that we will have. Recently, I acquired one of the T3500 on ebay for just $25! Granted, I did have to pick it up locally :). This PC can typically be bought on ebay or amazon between $100-$300, unless you get lucky like me on ebay. Try to get at least 8 GB of memory, possibly a 3.0 GHz CPU, and make sure windows is installed for the best experience.
  • Dell T5400/T5500: My main computer that I use is a dell T5400 and is capable of having dual quad core processors. My PC has a quadro FX1700 graphics card, 16 GB of memory, one E5410 2.33 GHz CPU, and a WiFi adapter. Not a beast of a computer, but one of the best computers that I have ever owned. It serves me perfectly for multitasking, using 3D CAD, video editing, and even light gaming. All for the price of just $180! I found this PC while searching online for an affordable solution to run SolidWorks and it has delivered. If you can afford it, try to look for the newer version: the dell T5500.
