Hey guys, I need your help picking a tablet out, I don't have much experience but I know I really want ons. My choices are the new Samsung gravity, the xoom, ipad2, ascus, or anything that's good!
Is there anyway around the iPad not having flash... Thanks for your feedback
Ps the tablet is mainly going to be used for fun

HP sold the TouchPad for 99 Euro in their Webshop on Monday. Unfortunately I saw it too late and didn't get one.
Do you mean the Samsung Galaxy Tab or the 10.1 version, and Asus transformer?
Yeah I meant 10.1 and the transformer, thanks for catching

I've also been holding off from buying a tablet for a while. Was trying to grab a bargain touchpad but somehow i missed them all. Sold out and I'm not paying ridiculous over priced charges some people charging now on the bulk loads they bought.
Anyway, I'm thinking of the Galaxy Tab 7.7 from all that I've seen. Perfect size and specs are mind blowing. 7.7 inches of Super AMOLED! Can't go wrong there.

7.7 maybe too small... someone suggested transformer 2, good spec. But I prefer tab 3. Tab has better screen and camera than asus.

Christmas is this week and where I live there's very few choices on tablets THAT I KNOW OF!
I need a bunch of suggestions for CHEAP tablets. Tablets that last a while.
Tablets I've looked at:
- Amazon Kindle Android
- Nook
- Cruz Android Tablet[Sucked]
- Samsung Galaxy Tab
My budget is $200, I've got to make a good choice because I turn 21 next year and my parents have threatened to stop buying gifts for me.
Thanks.

If u have a little more cash u can buy a better tab like the Asus transformer. The kindle is a great choice for a low end tab. I would stick with the kindle and I am not so sure u can get the galaxy tab for $200. Merry Christmas and don't forget to hit the thanks button if I helped.

With a $200 budget you could look into an HP Touchpad on Craig's List. Ships with WebOS, and it's super easy to intall Android in a dual boot configuration.
I got mine for $175.

Sounds like it'd be worth a look at. I've got $50 and my parents are willing to sport me a few hundred.
I looked at the Transformer and it's WAY too much out of my price range. I'm wanting a device that has FULL DEV SUPPORT.

The thing I was curious about with the Touchpad was could I install any other ROM except CM7 I personally strongly dislike the CyanogenMod ROMs myself
Sent from my LG-P925 using Tapatalk
I haven't seen any other Android ROMs aside from CM7. But, I love CM7 so I haven't really looked for anything else.

I've been told that you can just about load ANY ROM on the Touch Pad

Any ROM that's based on CM7, all 2 of them.
TouchPad? Awesome. Buggy gingerbread on a 10" screen? Meh. I think webOS is better than 2.3 on a tablet. When ICS is finished the TouchPad, that's a show stopper.
For $200 you can't beat the TouchPad. I looked at getting a Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet of Color, or Vizio vtab, and came to the conclusion after using all of them the Kindle fire was the best value and smoothest experience, but pales in comparison to webOS on the TouchPad.

I first had in mind to get the Infinity, but with its I/O bug, I have to reconsider. What tablet can you recommend that isn't a transformer or even an Asus at all? NOT Nexus 7.
Did you check out the Samsung galaxy tab?

You've ruled out Samsung, Asus, and the N7 (which is Asus, but significantly different than their other offerings). What's left, Acer? The newest Acer tab got a poor review on the Verge. Just don't get an Android tablet if those are really what you're going to rule out.
Edit: Toshiba excite? Only other new android tablet is can think of.

I've replaced the order for the Asus Inifinty. It's the only tab that speaks to me (not literally)

Excite 7.7 has been on my wishlist. amoled, tegra 3, etc, etc. Disadvantage is that, as far as I can tell, the dev community is nonexistent.
Can anyone from this forum tell me what would be a good tablet to go with my skyrocket ? Any and all suggestions !

Uh, you have to be more specific. What do you want to do with the tablet? Are you an Apple person, or an Android person? 7'? 8.9"? 10"?
you can try the galaxy note tablet
I'm looking for an android tablet. Either a 7" or 10". I was looking between the galaxy tabs 2 both in 7" and 10". Kinda read mixed reviews.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I would YouTube galaxy2 tab vs galaxy note and use spec difference. My personal opinion the note would be my choice because galaxy tab can be hassle with fc even in basic stock. But you gotta find the difference there
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I have a tab 2 10.1. It hasn't had any fc or problems. It also doesn't have very much dev support. It runs well for me, it's rooted, and I use it for watching movies and surfing the web.
Look into the note tablet and the nexus 7. Those are better tablets as far as specs go. They probably also have more dev support. Up to you though, the tab 2 works just fine for me.

I'm in Canada, so not much. It's actually $10 more than the Google Store, but I didn't want to wait any longer...

Just got myself a nexus 7. Can't give a review or anything as I haven't even unboxed it yet. Personally, I wanted the nexus 10 but its just not in my budget right now. Little brother has an account through newegg so settled for that. Same price as it is through the play store too.

I've had a nexus 7 for a few months now. I love it. The constant android os updates are a huge plus for me. There's pretty good dev support, too. For the price, I'm shocked at how much I like it.
There are a few bugs with the screen. Some users report a horizontal line of burnt pixels developing, and other users report blurry edges. My nexus 7 developed the horizontal line last week. I made a three minute phone call and a new nexus 7 arrived two days later. Not bad at all. I've read the screen issues have been fixed as of now.
Oh, it's also easy as heck to root and maintain. Rooting took me less than 10 minutes from start to finish.
Edit:
It depends if u really want a similar experience as the skyrocket. I imagine the Samsung tablets may be a good pick. I found the uber clean stock Android 4.2 system on the N7 was simple enough for me to bounce and forth between the skyrocket and not go bald or blind from stress.

I was offered a like new Galaxy tab 2 10.1 for 250. Is that worth it? Will a new one be coming out? If I get them to do 200 should I buy?
Thanks for the help

I bought my used Sprint Galaxy Tab 7 (white) for $200 in MINT condition. Asking price was $280. Doesn't hurt to say I have cash on me and can meet you in 30 minutes inside a Starbucks.
Ok thanks for the help so is 250 high? Will there be another tab coming soon? One more question. What do you guys think of this tablet? Is it smooth enough? Is cm10 or aokp the best room? I dont really care about touchwiz

No its a low price. The tablet is awesome. The 'best' ROM can only be determined by you.

I'll bump this a little bit. I just ordered Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 for 200 euros (they are normally like 350-400 euros here in Finland), and now I'm facing a dilemma.
I already own Xperia Tablet S, and ordered the Tab for my parents. But what do you think, should I keep the Tab for myself and give the Xperia Tablet S to my parents? Both are excellent devices, but Tab 2 is only a dual core. But there are 100x more custom roms for Tab 2 than Tablet S. There's pretty much zero roms for Sony.
CyanogenMod and other thingys gets me interested on Tab 2, but the "low specs" on Tab 2 gets me leaning towards Sony.
What would you do?
Apple's and oranges...but
I have a kindle fire hd 7" with no roms but fair specs....
And a tab 2 7" with cm10.1 with mediocre specs...
I use the tab 2 almost exclusively...
Sent from my GT-P3110 using xda app-developers app
why not buy NEXUS 7? it's awesome.
Maybe because it costs more, and is smaller. 3 inches is quite a lot.
EDIT: In MY case (where I got the Tab 2 for 200€) it's cheaper.
Sorry to hijack this thread.. I am looking to buy this tablet(wifi 10.1). Actually i was confused between this and nexus 7. But the display size won over nexus 7. And am new to tablets as well. Will this tab survive another 5 years of time ? Does this tab support usb host and hdmi or mhl? How's the battery backup time(wifi on 24x7)?

just bought mine today for $180 at walmart but it's going back tomorrow. the thing lags way too much for me. guess ill either buy a nexus 7 or wait.
Got the nexus 7 today and its like night and day. The only minuses are no expandable storage or rear camera. I liked the design of the tab 2 but the lag killed it for me. Maybe ill try out the galaxy tab 8 when it hits.
