I'll throw this in the mix for you as well: https://www.amazon.co.uk/DOOGEE-Android-unlocking-...
I recently bought the Huawei MatePad 11.5 Paper Matte, and it's an absolutely stunning thing for the price.
8GB RAM, 256GB storage, 120Mhz screen, it has the same nano-style screen coating as the new iPad Pro, quad speakers and came with a keyboard case and pencil for £329. As a huge Apple person who owned a 12.9" iPad Pro, I have been really impressed with it. The pencil is just the same, the nano coating is the same as the iPad one as far as I can tell too. The screen is excellent and the nano coating works really well for reflections. It also picks up far less on fingerprints. The magnetic keyboard case is great too; it's very similar to the old iPad keyboard case. The keys feel nice, but there is no trackpad.
There are a few downsides though; it cannot natively run Google apps being the largest. You need to use a piece of software called gBox which spoofs the tablet's identity. I have not really had any problems with it though. The pencil does not attach magnetically to the tablet either, and the keyboard doesn't connect and disconnect the Bluetooth automatically like the Apple one, you need to disconnect it manually through the Bluetooth menu. The 12MP rear camera doesn't have a flash either.
That's pretty much it though. As a value-for-money prospect, it's like 80% of an iPad Pro for less than 25% of the price.
There is also now the new model out which does connect and charge the pencil magnetically and has an even more advanced pencil available, a faster SoC, flash and stuff. It is £449 for the new S with keyboard and pencil or £349 for the non-nano-coated one.
