Amstrad ZX Spectrum +2
Sinclair ZX · 1986
Amstrad's first Spectrum after buying the name: the 128 with a tape deck built in, a grey case and a proper keyboard. Cheaper to make and much easier to live with, and it kept the AY sound. Purists dislike the Amstrad-era machines; practically, this is the easiest classic Spectrum to actually use, and the integrated Datacorder is the part that needs its belt.
