7" tablets

[Cake_Boss]

I'm in the market for a new tablet, a 7" one. We compared a Nexus 7 ($250) and Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 ($200). I've seen a few of you with the Nexus, how do you like it? What do you do about the camera?

I liked the HD screen of the Nexus, but it had no rear camera. The NFC was nice too

The Samsung had a rear camera and is able to expand the memory, but no HD display or NFC. The Samsung includes a case though.

Re: 7" tablets

Oh almost forgot, no Apple products. Why pay twice the price for half the product?

Was thinking of a Windows one, but they want to ride the overpriced train too, which wouldn't be an issue.... but I am saving up for ReefStock here...

Apple can take the mini and shove it up their arses. What possessed them to drop the standard connector that has been used on Ipods, Iphones, and Ipads for years? I had considered getting a mini until that crackpot idea. I am leaning towards the Galaxy and switching to the phone as well.

My daughter has the galaxy, and I have the nexus. If you can live without the camera go with the nexus. Hands down.

Re: 7" tablets

I heard, through the grapevine, that the iPod touch skin guys were brainstorming a similar skin for the Nexus. It's that true? I know you can add a USB camera and use that, but that kinda defeats the purpose of having a portable device.

+1 Ipad, one of the best purchases I have ever made.

does it have to be 7" ?
I got the Asus Transformer infinity w the keyboard dock and hardly use a laptop anymore unless I am at my desk at work.
w the keyboard dock you get USB an additional memory card reader and close to 18hours of battery life.
Woot.com, and groupon.com have been selling the older version the prime, for 300ish with the keyboard dock.

if its got to be 7" I have heard the nexus is pretty good.

I only use my ipad when traveling to watch movies on it. I now use my Nexus for just about everything.

We saw that one, it was to big for her hands. The 8.9" were borderline.

The deal breaker on the Nexus was the camera to be honest.

Little known fact, you can give Sam's an offer (up to 20% off. Ask to talk to a manager if the sales guy won't do it), and they'll take it. We picked up the Samsung 8 GB bundle and 2yr protection plan for $200 today. I guess the trial run starts today.

About the Asus, do you think the Infinity will be as worthwhile update for my Xoom? The only thing that really bothers me is the crappy rear camera and the weight, dang gorilla glass is heavy.
