tablets: what do you have

Basically in the market for a new tablet. I bought an asus transformer a few nights ago and hate it. Battery life sucks and it is so damn hard to carry around. So returning it.


My question is what do you have as a tablet and if you had to choose again would you get something else and what. Trying to stay in the 2-400.00 range if possible.

 

I have an I pad and a galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition. Like them both. Trying to sell the I pad now. Just got the tablet yesterday.

 

iPad and I love it... Do wish it ran flash but I've ever really needed that a few times so...

 

Samsung tab 2 7.0.Love it even though it has flaws.Slow at times and the screen doesnt always respond,you have to be precise.Dont need anything else.

 

Well good thing you came to the light on the ipad lol. I had one but couldn't justify the apps price

 

Check COSTCO, I think they are running a special on the Galaxy models

 

iPad mini.

 

I am looking into a tablet . My only issue is , i would like it to hook up to a diagnostic system for Toyota and not sure they will do it . I know a lap top will .
I would grab a tablet if I knew this would connect .

I had a Samsung Galaxy Note. I sold it because it was pretty much just an over-sized cell phone that couldn't make phone calls.

 

I guess I should have mentioned I have a galaxy note 3 phone

 

Nexus 7 and I hope to get an iPad or a Microsoft surface soon.

 

Why are you getting rid of the nexus 7? That is what all of my local friends are suggesting I get. Or the nexus 10

 

My wife and I both have nexus 7's. IMHO they are the perfect size, the specs are decent, and we are always using it.

 

My wife and I both too have Nexus 7 We like them. We use those rubber tipped scribes makes it much easier to use.

 

Nexus 7 and a Microsoft Surface. I have a Kindle Fire HD but that has been pretty much taken over by my 4 year old daughter.


The Surface is a nice machine for consuming. Magazines and books are sharp but the unit gets a little heavy after holding it for an hour. It tends to be what I take traveling unless I absolutely need to bring a laptop.


The Nexus 7 is primarily what I use in the truck for navigation, surfing, etc. Great size for the road and OK for books but a 7 inch screen does not work well for magazines. I would prefer my Surface any day over the Nexus for most tasks.


I'm not somebody who would really take advantage of the app stores. I get apps but for what I do on the tablets, any ecosystem has most of the apps I need. If you need the most variety of apps, obviously Apple or Google.

 

iPad 3. Honestly, never been so attached to an electronic device before. I use it about 10 hours a day, listening to music at work and surfing the web @ home. Best money on electronics I've ever spent.

 

I'll soon have the Galaxy S4.. dang phones are becoming tablets.. *cough* iphone *Cough*

 

I'm not getting rid of it haha I use it as my computer pretty much but I want an iPad or surface to actually use for a computer like set up.

 

Well pulled the the trigger and got a nexus 10 32 gig today. Got for a good deal so can't complain. Like it so far. Taking the transformer back tomorrow. Like the rubberized back on the nexus over the transformers glossy plastic back. And the nexus feels better in the hands. Slightly smaller than the transformer. And no bloatware like the transformer has.

 

No tablet. Just a regular phone.........
