Best tablet for gaming? - General Questions and Answers

I want to get a tablet that's great for gaming under $300. My brother has a nexus 7 and I've used it but it lags on most gameloft games. I want a tablet that doesn't lag on their games. I saw the galaxy tab 2 for $200 at best buy but don't know if it will be good enough. Any suggestions?

What's the heaviest game you've played on it? Does it lag?

I'll look into it is it any different than the 7 inch one? Besides the screen. If there's a major difference I could shell out a few extra dollars for it

Ipad is in my opinion basic tablet for people who want to play angry birds on a big screen and have their device look like all the other people ipad. With no customization.
As if you said its the best. Your ignorance is comical. The nexus 7 doesnt lag. Its a very powerful small tablet and consider how inexpensive it is.. in my opinion its one of the best bang for your buck
and you cant root an ipad
Jail break aint got sh*t on Root

Yeah It's probably just a few games I downloaded more that I bought with this phone and doesn't lag like some do I don't really plan on rooting anything anymore unless I get something new. So I might get a nexus or maybe a 3ds since I just want it for games. I have this phone the evo 3d that's 1.2 dual core GHz and I'm happy with it but I'll see my little brother doesn't use his nexus much since he plays on my Xbox it might just end up being mine after a while

You must not watch TV. All three versions are all over the TV. Maybe you live under a rock!

This is terrible advice. Don't buy something that isn't popular? Really? If I had gone by that rule I'd never have bought my HD2 or my Evo View & I'd have missed out on two excellent devices. Just because something is popular doesn't mean it's the best.
Here's some advice that everyone can follow- do your research, go to the store & play with different devices, and buy whichever one you like best.

A while ago Engadget had an article on the best smartphones for the four major carriers and used this for the cover. It's definitely popular..

Well, I don't think thats a good advice, my advice is before buying a phone like the galaxy s2, look for issues about it in the internet and try it out before you buy it.
I regret saying that Engadget's article about the screen issue wasn't that noticeable and they had it on a really dark place etc. Now i'm noticing that every darn day.

Windows mobile is a slow and laggy phones. Phones should be released so they don't need to be hacked. It should be because the owner wants to. That's my opinion on it

You know this is one of the most selling phones in the world right.... Right? Samsung has put millions in marketing and made a version for every major American carrier and is attempting to sell more than the original.... You are aware of that right? So you started this thread to be flamed.... Correct?

If you have not purchased one yet. I would suggest the GNEX. It has exceeded my expectations and ICS OS is pretty nice.
I would agree Nexii are amazing devices. But when I choose a device I take a look here on XDA, see what the development community is like and then i will get it

Buying an android tablet.

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.

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.

No, these do not change. I picked up the ones I thought were worth it already yesterday. Granny Smith, Asphalt 7, Draw Something.
Runtastic is good if you run, which I don't. Except the 5 minutes at the gym.
Looks like the only one worth something in here is OfficeSuite Pro 6... but I will know next week, when the lectures will start. Someone recommends anything from that list?

There is unofficial SwiftKey 75% off FYI.

Thanks mate, i've just purchased FIFA12, World of Goo and Paper Camera.
If Titanium Backup and Tapatalk are up tomorrow for this low price, i'll get those as well
I already got Swiftkey very cheap a few months ago
World Of Goo for 25p? I'm having some of that! I paid £7 for it on Wii and loved it, so 25p to have it portable is a bargain! Hoping there'll be more great games like that available in the sale.

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.

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.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda
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 love Android! Had hero-evo-photon-3d-evo lte-s3 and now I'm getting kind of bored with it..
Considered WP but no apps is a major no no. And well I've been considering iPhone 5 until s4 comes out or next big android.
Is this normal?! Please help me!

There are tons of new phones out that are great as well as many new ones always around the corner, just take the plunge and pick one that suits your needs and has a good ongoing development. Good luck my friend.

What is an i5? or i4?

Ah ok, hows that going so far? I can imagine everything "just works" as they say, lol
I mean yeah it works but so does android... First off I love iTunes! It's so cool plugging in phone at night and it automatically copies itself, the iPhone 5 is just so insanely fluid and fast! Camera is same as my Evo lte. Overall it's just nice having something that never stutters, no missing pics of kids due to lag, or anything like that. Idk just want something new until android is completely fluid.
I hear ya, hopefully the next version is smooth
Man I honestly love iPhone... Never thought I'd say that
