Depends on if u want portability. If u have the money the Nexus 10 is better spec wise. I don't know if I was playing with a defective Nexus 7 but it was really choppy. But that could have been my experience. Conclusion. Got the money? Get Nexus 10
I would go with the nexus 7 most def. I have 2 in household and for the price they are a bargain.

That depends on your needs - if you want take it everywhere - probable Nexus 7 will be better

I have the Nexus 7 it is the perfect size for a tablet, I use my for doing some web surfing and playing some games. You sir may be looking for the Nexus 10 because your going to be playing games and watching movies so the big screen will be good for you. However Both devices are amazing I consider them being the same with diffrent screen sizes to be honest. Enjoy!
Cheers
hey guys, Thanks for all of your input, but i think ill have to get both, first the nexus 10 for performance and the amazing Screen,and the nexus 7 later on, for the portability, and on the go gaming, and web surfing Just have to wait 6 Weeks for the nexus 10 now Grrrr come on pay day's!,
again, i cant thank you all enough, it was hard to pick one so yeah ill have to get both lol
thanks, amatris
nexus 7 for portable
If you look to play games, watch movies and search internet, I suggest you should invest in Nexus 10.
It is much expensive, but high density screen and well functioning OS won't disappoint you.
Both works, but have you played with tablets of both sizes ?
It depends on you, but I, personally, found 7" sort of pointless after having a 5" phone. I can't really fit a 7" tablet comfortably in a pocket (I could probably get it in a blazer hip pocket, but that would be a large ridiculous flat block sticking out of me) so I don't think it's really and more portable - 7" or 10", it's not going in a pocket, it's going in a bag.
I think 7" is good for those who are looking for more of a larger-screen iPod Touch - an "entertainment device" - not so much web-browsing. I found watching video significantly more "immersive" on a 10" tablet. 7" is a good size for an "eReader +", as well.

New Nexus if your looking for a smaller device. First device to have Jelly Bean 4.1 and you'll get good software updates by going with a Nexus device.
One thing you might consider is the weight and size of the 10.4 inch tablets. I have an Acer, I really like it but it's heavy. Not bad for around the home but I wouldn't want to carry it everywhere. A 7 inch is much nicer for portability.
And as others have said, look at the new Nexus.
if you can find one the HP touchpad is very nice and cyanogenmod has it already hacked with dual booting.
Love it

Yeah the OP couldn't have asked that question at a better time. I agree with the above comment. Nexus 7 runs the faster jellybean 4.1. It'll get updated roms before other manufacturers. U may as well spend a few bucks more than one of those crappy Chinese imitations and get the nexus. It will be far better quality!
Definitely give the Nexus a look! If she will be using it for school then check out the HTC Flyer, it's about the same specs and uses a stylus that has great handwriting features!
Nexus 7 is a pretty sweet deal for the quality of device. Although if she is using it for school, it might be a good idea to look at the ASUS Transformer w/ keyboard for taking notes during class. Also, as was previously mentioned, the HTC Flyer has excellent handwriting support
Oh, And MS Surae RT or Pro is also nice.

Not everyone has the time & patience to do this. Plus this is for his daughter. If stuff happens & doesn't work It ruins the experience for her.
The Nexus 7 is the best 70inch tablet on the market and for an amazing price. You'll need to figure out if it's worth getting the 16GB or not.

A 80incj tablet would be too heavy to carry.

Nexus 7, best tablet you can buy for $200
Thanks for the info guys
I managed to get a try of the nexus and it was really nice and worth every penny, I was almost going to part with my cash to get one and then I got chance to check out the super pad, for the price of £98 I was sceptical it would be any good but it was amazing, although a bit hard to use with finger touch it has no trouble with the pen and also came.with a keyboard and case, I would recommend it to anyone on a budget as long as u don'tmind using a pen
Thanks again for the advice

So I have the decision of getting either a nexus 7 tablet or a international version of the galaxy s3. I have 250 cash to buy the nexus 7, and for the galaxy s3 i would have to trade my galaxy nexus and $200 cash. Do you guys think I should keep my galaxy nexus and get the tablet, or should i trade my current phone + $200 for a galaxy s3? I do have a good laptop but its 15in so that's why I am undecided on what I should go for. Help me out guys!
IMO, get the s3 because you will get more joy out of it than a tablet and like you said, you have a good laptop so you don't need a tablet.
Sent from Failtrix.
I agree, go buy the S3, its a better choice.
Why would You want to have to carry with You 2 devices all the time (and the Tablet is not as small as a Phone is), when You can have one very good phone?
Take the S3 mate!
thanks for the input guy, i am leaning towards the s3
Buy the Galaxy S3 .
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda premium
go for s3
Go for the phone, the tablet will just feel like a bigger version of your phone considering they'd both be running the same OS. Not much of a big leap in screen size a larger tablet would be better.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
i suggest you to buy a s3 if you like feautures on your hand ...but if you want the taste of jellybean immedietly go there....but i tell you will not use it as the way your gonna use your s3
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk 2
I would keep my Nexus and buy a Tablet
for me... i will choose galaxy s3
S3 for sure
S3 because it can replace camera and handycam.Nexus 7 can't..
It looks like the S3 is the better choice, but the thing is there aren't many i9300's S3s in my area, mostly just AT&T versions. How do those two compare? Battery wise, speed, etc.
I've got both and I use them for very different things. So if you can afford it I'd recommend both of them.

what do you use your nexus 7 for? If i get it I think my main use for it would be reading digital comics and probably watching videos on my bed. Both which I do pretty often.

That's pretty much it. Which is why I'll upgrade the Nexus 7 to the ten inch when it comes out, most likely. Comics don't play well on the SGS3, nor do subtitled movies. Oh, and 3D games seem to work better on the Nexus 7 than on the phone.
Galaxy S3
Galaxy s3 for me way better. if you get it try to rooted and get you a great pimped custom rom for it and enjoy it :highfive:
Hope you decided
I might.

If you can install a custom ROM maybe. Otherwise Kindle are way too "closed" for my taste.
Anyway I m waiting for Ipad mini (if it's exist and jb) and new Windows RT tablet. I ll decide around XMas.
I don't think there will be sub 10" tablet on Windows RT. Microsoft should have start on that market right from the start.
nexus 7
I'm in the process of trying to sell nexus 7 and buy 8.9 hd tab. I love nexus 7 works very well and nexus device rocks as long its not on verizon. I've come to realize i dont like 7inch form factor. I watch movies mostly. I like the bigger size and screen.

I own an iPad 3rd generation and I am extremely unhappy with what Apple just did. I am however happy with my iPad (even tough I cant stand the iPhone and wouldnt trade my HTC One X for anything else). My experience with Android tablets isn't great. I played with the Galaxy Note Tab 10.1 and it sucks big time and the Nexus 7 is too small. The Transformer Prime TF300 sucked I find; a couple of friends have it and found it laggy and buggy (I got random reboot only looking at pictures. Maybe a custom rom can fix that?!)
I want to basically sell the iPad not because I am not happy with it but because I am fed up with Apple. What would be a good replacement for my iPad?
-I want retina display aka high DPI
-Smooth
-10"
What is out there that I missed?!
Asus transformer pad infinity. Seems to be what you are looking for.
Samsung (Google Nexus 10) potentially being released in the Android event in 4 days. It will supposedly have a higher dpi than the iPad 3.
That's your gold mine right there

Hi Guys,
I am currently have Note 10.1 3G version and I am eying to a smaller form factor Nexus 7 (second gen?). Do you think it would be worth to replace my current tab to Nexus 7? Or maybe Note 8.0 ?
I am looking a portable yet powerful tab. I dont watch full length movie or play intensive games on tab. What i need is to be able to check my emails, fb, chat with friends, play bit of simple games , skype, Google apps, maps. I also need a tab thay has capability of wifi hotspot.
Your thoughts please.

I suggest waiting for the 2nd gen Nexus 7. It may be the best 7" tablet on the market when it comes out and it could be only $200-250 if they price it like the first gen. The rumor is that it will be announced next month, so let's wait and see!

The second gen nexus 7 when it is released would be a good buy because it can easily perform all the tasks you need it to do. If you are in a hurry you could just buy the first gen nexus 7.

Nexus Suggestion
I do agree with the others, I have bought 2 Nexus 7 tablets 6 months ago and I agree that having 4.2.2 out of the box is awesome considering some of the latest phones are just starting to get it, they are ahead as far as software goes. they are lean with an AOSP interface but as well as they are stable, Ive found that the battery as much as it should be awesome is not stellar on either of the 2 I own. I am not hypocritical of the device as I think they're awesome but for the $199 they are worth it.. and if the 2nd gen matches in price with improved specs, it's a win-win...
Cool.. Thanks guys. Im sure the new nexus 7 is worth buying. But we are not sure when this new device will be release, but still I'm holding for awhile
