Never have used my smartphone as a hotspot ( tethering ) , I`am considering buying a tablet mainly for the maps , how easy is it to carry out tethering , many thanks in advance gents .
Pretty straightforward from a smart phone. Just a case of going into settings.

Tethering is easy enough but watch your data usage…nobody does unlimited tethering anymore afaik…and another thing, I’m pretty sure google maps doesn’t connect to a hotspot’ iPad to use as a ‘satnav’…again, check it out. Great for watching a bit of tv though, if you have Netflix or some sort of subscription tv at home as you can watch Sky/BT sports & Sky movies if you have them at home
Double post 
Why use maps that aren’t downloaded on to the device these are called off board systems there ok but as said they will hammer any data usage you have
3 do a sim only 12 month deal where you can get 32gb per month to use as a hot spot at unlimited calls text and phone data. Could be worth a look decide on what tablet you want first then decide what data you want from it. It won’t show any mot detail than you would see on a phone screen and the navigation apps are just the same for tablet as they are for smartphone
