Lord Geordie Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ibuprofen! Didn't get on with it too well Should have spent the extra on Diazapam instead! I Bought the young un a Kindle Fire HD and it seemed fine to me! The reviews claimed the Nexus 7 was better! SWMBO Bought the Nexus for HER lad, sat in a cupboard ever since I have a Galaxy TAB and find that is fine for my needs! There are tablets as cheap as about £40 if you shop about, but I wouldn't think they were too clever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felly100 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ipad 2,happy enough with it,it seems to chat with my iPhone which is nice. I don't recommend bashing the volume buttons into a fireplace though. I now have to take a butter knife to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88b Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I pad 2 and an I pad mini , only problem encountered so far is no flash player with apple, no affected me but SWMBO can't play some FB games. I'm told the Tesco Huddle is very good value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vole Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Had Samsung galaxy tab 2 then got the tab 3 expecting better but Chrome freezes frequently . No problem with Dolphin though . I think Android does more than enough for average users . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Had Samsung galaxy tab 2 then got the tab 3 expecting better but Chrome freezes frequently . Found this with my tab 3, so just use internet. Can`t get the hang of cut/copy though, probably just my big fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinchesterDave Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Sony Xperia Tablet Z. Cracking tablet ultra thin and light, waterproof up to a meter lol, lovely clear screen and very fast with a decent camera too I love it! It was between that and ipad air. The specs of the Sony were greater than ipad and I have the Xperia z smartphone so they go hand in hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adobe have stopped updating flash for android. You can still download old versions, but no guarantee it will work in the future. Flash is dead - and not having it has not bothered me much as most websites are moving away from it. Personally I use Apple/iOS. Android is a security nightmare - don't keep any personal data on there, or use it for any financial transactions. There is just too much malware and security holes to contend with. Also, when it comes to operating system updates, you are at the mercy of your phone vendor. One advantage of Android devices though is the initial purchase price. If that is a strong motivator - then go Android, but keep the security aspects in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nial Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I have an old Blackberry Playbook. It's not as good as the iPad for general browsing etc but 1 major factor in its favour is that it has a mini HDMI output, all you need is a cable and you can drive any TV with an HDMI input. This has been great on holiday as I've been able to load up a few films so we can all watch a film if the weather isn't great. Do any other tablets have HDMI output ?

aris Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Do any other tablets have HDMI output ? Ipad with a small attachment. http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter You can also use AirPlay to stream to a TV wirelessly - but you need other bits on the TV to do this.
