Subject: Looking to buy a Tablet.

"What does being a Firefighter mean? You show up, scrape a few drunken douche bags off the street, take 'em to the hospital, you go home, and that's it. But that once in a blue moon, you're there for someone in their darkest hour. Your a friendly face in a sea of sh­it.
You're a hero"

Jeenzz is my waifu <3

Looking at anywhere from 300-600 dollars.

I need a good, android based Tablet, and it has to be over 7".
If you make a suggestion, provide reasons for it.

I also work at Best Buy, so I can get some accessories for mega cheap. IF you know any good ones put them out there.


I watch a good amount of movies and use netflix often. I'm addicted to Trance music, and enjoy photography. The tablet doesn't need to have a great camera, but that would be nice. It's not like I'll be using it for photography or anything.


I'm eyeing the ASUS Infinity. Looks pretty powerful and that resolution is incredible.
Plus the Keyboard dock is a good idea. Add battery life and can make typing out a longer post/paper/whatever a bit easier.

It's a bit out of your price range, but I have a Microsoft Surface. I don't care what people say--I think it kicks ass.

I refuse to recommend the Surface until the Surface Pro comes out....cause x86 CPU.

I think the Surface + Touch Cover is $599. If you have one, how easy is it to type on? I'm just curious, lol.

I have a smartphone and a chromebook, and I still find uses for my tablet. They're different beasts, really.

Too bad it isn't.



Hurrr screen res means everything. You're forgetting contrast ratio, colors and color saturation.

Resolution and pixel density are the major parts. Do you have the specs on each screen? I'd like to compare the contrast, brightness, etc.

Nexus 10 screen res - 2600x1600
iPad 3 screen res 2048x1536

Nexus 10 contrast ratio - 16:9
iPad 3 contrast ratio - 16:9

Colors/color saturation - Same on both devices


Also...the Nexus 10 has a higher PPI over the iPad 3.

Nop I dont and i dont care enough to argue with a neckbeard nerd


Literally get an ipad and a nexus 10, put them together and the iPad WILL have better picture quality. Just look up youtube videos. You really can't tell the difference between the pixel difference in them either

Spend a bit more money and get the Surface Pro.

Because you get what you pay for

iPad keeps its value a lot more when you re-sale
iPad has more apps
iPad has no malware
iPad has better performance
iPad has better contrast ratios and color saturation
iPad has better build quality
iPad has a much better and longer battery by almost x1.5 better
iPad doesn't system restart


Most importantly the iPad has A LOT more optimized apps. You idoits dont realize that hardly any apps are updated for the Nexus 10 high res screen. Hundreds of thousands are already updated for the iPad 3.
