Out of those, you don't get more besides the screen than bigger screen, but I would try to get a used amazon fire or galaxy tab 7" on ebay.
Hit that thank button if I helped!

Anything's better than an Android tablet. They are just oversized phones. However, W8 is optimized for tablets, so it'll be insane. The answer becomes easy now: go Surface

I have a Nexus 7 which is great, but I use it mainly for reading. I'd like a bigger tablet for work and the Surface looks ideal especially as it'll have MS Office. Even a 16GB Wi-fi only model would be so useful combined with cloud storage.

[Q] Best cheap tablet from Amazon around $100-$200 ?

Hey guys
I'm from outside the US and looking for a nice tablet for under $200 (yay 3rd-world-country currency restrictions ). Now, I've had an old HTC Magic, then a Motorola Defy and now a ZTE V970M. They're all great phones, with lots of development and nice features, and I'm looking for a tablet that I can get from Amazon with the same or similar features.
Basically, I'm looking for this:
A tablet that is small (7" is enough, I wouldn't mind 10" though) with a capacitive screen (or responsive enough, anyways) with some development other than the stock ROM and Android 4.0+, since I love to make ROMs for android devices. Also, I'm planning to use it to connect it to HDMI TVs, so an HDMI output would be a big bonus. I would also try to use it as a laptop so allowing connectivity to any of those case-with-keyboard things (through bluetooth or USB) is a need. I don't care much for battery life, as long as it can be rooted I can work my way around to make it save battery like hell
Here are the options I've looked at:
Around 180$ & 168$ respectively: Galaxy Tab 2 ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-1 ) and Galaxy Tab Plus ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...f=sr_1_19?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-19 ) but they don't have HDMI output, not even with an external converter, I was wondering if that's true?
119$: The Coby MID7065-8 ( http://www.amazon.com/Coby-7-Inch-A...ref=sr_1_4?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-4 ) looks good but... it's Coby :/ and also, it doesn't seem to have a CyanogenMod-compatible CPU, and I don't wanna be locked to ICS forever.
165$: The Acer Iconia looks *awesome* ( http://www.amazon.com/Acer-A500-10S...f=sr_1_22?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472318&sr=1-22 ) but it's Android 3.0, is it a good buy if I can upgrade it to CM 10 or a stock 4.0-4.1-4.2 ?
174$: This Galaxy Tab SCH-i800 looks weird, is it any good? ( http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galax...f=sr_1_50?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472705&sr=1-50 )
104$!!!: This SANEI looks awesome too ( http://www.amazon.com/Android-Scree...f=sr_1_71?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1368472813&sr=1-71 ) but I wonder if I can upgrade it to more than ICS/JB ? it has a Cortex A9 and I've heard there's some compatible CM around for Cortex chips, so would it be a good buy?
$199: The Kindle Fire HD seems like a good $199 option ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1555100222&pf_rd_i=507846 ) BUUUUUT... it's a reader, and I've had experiences with the B&N Nook Simple Touch that I don't wanna repeat, such as having a very locked firmware and not having all of the working features if I upgrade to CM or something similar :/
Any tips guys? I really need the advice, as I need to make a choice by tomorrow maximum
Thanks in advance!

Yeah but the Nexus 7 is from swappa actually I have to remove that option XD since it doesn't fit my tight time requirements
What about the iconia A500 though? I've seen it has better screen resolution, Tegra 2 and such, plus JB 4.2 judging by the subforum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1136
Acer does make good products and I guess for your needs it would work

full windows or android tablet!?

Hey there! Hmm.... Well i've used a lot of android devices starting with Samsung galaxy Mini then HTC One X to Samsung galaxy S4 and ending with HTC One which i still own and love a lot.. so im not new to amdroid and i really like the system so much. I decided to by a tablet and samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 was the one till i saw dell venue 8 pro in a review. I really cant decide which is better choice for everyday use like surfing web and watching movies... May be few photo edit ( I used to use photoshop touch on android perfectly and had no problems with selections even on my 4.7" screen )? What i really like on the venue is that i can run programs like visual studio on the run and its easy to go with.... A full computer but im afraid of windows on a screen small in size! Also i have a nice laptop so i want ur opinion about a good tablet not a laptop replacement!
Simply Windows vs android, who wins? Ty in advance
Good question. As a windows user I would prefer that. What s the price difference?

I would suggest that you go with Windows since you are going to use it with programs like PS. On the other hand you are a proficient user of Android OS and you are used to controls.
Break it this way:
Price = you can save on the device to invest money in new apps
Performance = spend a little more on the device and save some time while waiting apps to respond your actions

u r right ^_^ thats why i really look for the best performance before i check its price and i know alot about android system and i can do much with it, actually everything other than office. i download my movies using bittorrent for android but i dont know much about windows on a touch tablet with 8' display thats why i wanted your opinion guys im really exited about the idea of full windows the only problem with the dell is that it dosnt have 3G but i think a usb modem will do the trick ... so if u were me u would go with dell? ^_^
thank u anyway <3

Ok, so here you go. If you think that both devices will be performing well enough for you in terms of RAM, ROM ,CPU and GPU then I would suggest you to go with Galaxy Tab S 8.4. For me Dell Venue has not enough resolution with 1280 x 800 at ONLY 189ppi. I think that if you are doing some creative work with pictures or videos then Galaxy's massive 1600 x 2560 Pixel, 360ppi will give you a huge advantage in terms of reviewing your work.
Personally I am not fan of tablets, so I consider Tablet as a waste of money. In case if you will be using tablet as a tool for presenting your portfolio (perse) then I will consider this as an investment towards your future.
