I have an iPad 2 16 gb 3G been offered a trade for a p7500 I'm leaning toward doing it just prefer android over ios. Although I do admit my ipad has been a good tablet my main gripes with it are the speaker which it seems the 7500 does better. Also I was hoping to be able to Bluetooth tether from my galaxy note to conserve battery over wifi tethering.
Has anyone else made the jump from an iPad 2 over to a 7500? Any regrets?
All of my family members use iPads but me. 2 ipad 2s and 2 iPad 3s.
I use galaxy note 10.1 and I love it. I would never trade mine for any iPad including upcoming iPad 5.
Lol but that's just me. I am just saying I have no regrets. I love s pen. I dunno about gal tab 2. I only used it for one day then sold it. I liked galaxy tab 2 10.1 but i wanted the pen.
Anyways u will like the tab if u like ansroid. U are talking about tab 2 10.1 right? Not tab 10.1.

Believe it's the tab 1 the p7500 I've done a lot of searching online seems to be similarly specd as the iPad 2. Obviously the tab 2 is better but I'm hoping the tab 1 will still keep me satisfied for awhile.
I would probably just stick with the ipad if I were you.

Oh, yes, stick with the ipad. If it were a tab 2 10.1, It'd be a fairly good deal, but giving away an ipad2 3g for a p7500 you're being had.

Apart from the tab 2 being newer and having a micro sd slot, there is absolutely no difference in spec to the original tab 10.1. The original wifi version cost £400 while the tab 2 only costs around £250 at the moment. Its not a better device.

Well as it says I just sold my laptop to buy a tablet. I don't want to buy a tablet right now due to the prices are probably fixing to drop. Question is, will the note be big enough to cruise the internet, watch videos, and other **** till I buy a tablet? Coming from a skyrocket don't know if the almost a inch bigger will make that much difference. Thanks in advance for your thoughts

I've owned a tablet ever since the original iPad. currently i own the galaxy tab 10.1. i love the tablet, but I find that I am not really using it since I got the note. So this week I decided to sell my galaxy tab.
I gave my Motorola Xoom to my wife since I had no use for it since I got my note. It satisfied all my tablet needs, and then some.
I still have my ipad2 but use it ALOT less now.that i have the note. I use the ipad at school and for movie watching on the go. That's about it.

Well..as much as I love the Note, I would certainly rather look at a 9.7" screen than a 5.3" one.
It is all up to you!
For me...no it does not replace my tablet, except when I am away from home .
I got them around the same time, and I believe that I'll be returning the iPad to Best Buy tomorrow. The Note has pretty much made the iPad unecessary. I didn't think it would fill the void of a tablet, but it definitely has.
Anyone else put their tablets to rest after getting the Note?
I actually got my ipad as a gift of my girlfriend, and hardly use it the note wins hands down,I can do whatever I want, watch movies in mkv,flac support,add music without itunes etc.etc
Hardly use it

I think once i get an extended battery i will say the same. Right now the battery life on the Note just isn't close to a Tablet. If I get that Mugen 5400 I think I will quickly forget about the Tablet ;-)

I solved this with the Samsung charger/battery combo. It's great to be able to swap batteries.
To me, tablets are giant phones that don't make calls. So with the Note, I get near small tablet size while being able to still use it as a phone. I love it. I agree with the OP, I don't need a tablet with the Note.
Not exactly the same but for me I refused to get a tablet, I just don't like the form factor of having a large slate. I knew something smaller and more manageable would come out and the gnote is it.

Last month, I decided to buy a handgun instead of the new iPad. No regrets since I did have the iPad 2 and it was collecting dust.

I have a Xoom too and do not use it nearly as much as I used to. The Note pretty much does everything I need, probably won't sell the Xoom though.

Same here man! My iPad is work issue. Yet I find myself using it far less than the Note. The fun factor on the Note is infinitely higher.

I rarely use my tablet anymore.
Note > iPad
I sold my ipad last week to get some money back for other gadgets. I do miss it a bit like using it lounging on the couch. You can just see more of a web page as i dont use my laptop much anymore. I think i really just miss those 99 cent ios games that me and the little one used to comlete for high scores in like Rat on a skateboard and Rat On A Snow board that the play store does not have. But i agree having both is a bit redundant. Not that i game much on my phone anyway, i mainly due that on Xbox. But i must say i did find myself playing games more than normal while i had my iPad. Perhaps i was just bored lol. It's those dinky little games that seem to get you hooked! Especially the ones where you compete for high scores!

I never actually purchased a tablet for myself, since I always viewed them as nothing more than expensive 'toys'.
I only borrowed various ones from family and friends, ranging from ipad to transfer to galaxy tabs. Since I figured I would barely use a tablet that I purchased, I figured what's the point of getting 1 then.
But analysts recently have been saying that the avg tablet price may get 50% cheaper by the end of this year...so if that's really the case, then I may re-consider buying one then.
I use both of them daily, but at home I'm on my ipad2 99% of the time. Between the bigger screen and the battery life, not to mention the games its hard to compare the 2.

So I have a Nexus 10 and love it but now my Mum wants a tablet, Android, and up to £200, the Nexus 7 is the one I think she should get, but was wondering what else was in this price range and of similar spec?
What is there of decent quality in the price range?
Cheers.
EDIT- Sorry just realized this is in the wrong section, is there a way I can delete? or can someone move it!
Thread moved to the Android forums.
I suggest Nexus 7, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or Motorola XOOM.
Cheers,

Sadly, an iPad II. I seriously don't know what possessed me! At the time there wasn't really an Android tablet that appealed to me or that was available in my country. I desperately want to get rid of it and replace it with a new Galaxy Tab. iOS is crrrrrrrrrrap! You cant even do simple things like Bluetooth files from one device to another! Some of the apps and games on iOS are ok but as for the functionality/customisability, it is non-existant!
I have the nexus 7 32gb version. Before I had the Asus transformer.
Both great tablets but I fancied a smaller form factor after a year with a 10.1 inch tablet. And I could not resist the 7's price tag either! Especially after I tried a friends one at work one time.

I'm looking into getting a tablet. The new nexus 7 intrigues me but is the size all that different to the note 2? What tablets do you guys have? Do you find yourself using it over your giant phone?

My wife has the galaxy tab 2 7.0 and I play with that one. I don't like the size compared to my note ii. But I do plan on getting the new nexus 10 when it comes out.
About her galaxy tab. It feels too small. Like its not a tablet but a phone. As ridiculous as it sounds. She likes it because she can easily store it in her purse whenever we go anywhere. That's always a plus, but she does also only have a 4.3" phone so its a big difference in screen size to her.

I'll second the notion posted above, that the 7" tablet is kind of pointless when you have the Note 2. For what it's worth, since moving to the Note 2 I no longer use either my Nexus 7 nor my full-size iPad. I seldom need anything but my Note 2 and my laptop, which spends most of its days docked in my home office.

Now that I have the Note2 I rarely use my touchpad running android. If/when it dies I will probably replace it with a Nexus 10. The weight difference between the 2 tablets will probably cause me to use a tablet more often.

I have a first gen nexus 7, and recently I bought a note 8. The note 8 is what I reach for the most. The nexus was too small and rarely used liked the other posters point out. But the Note 8 is the perfect balance of size for me. Note 8 development is not the best, but I like TW so im running stock rooted on it. The fact that it has a sd slot helps a lot too. The price is higher though. Something else to note (ha), I do use the spen a lot. If the spen is not a selling point for you on a tablet, it may not be worth the extra cost. Good luck tablet shopping!

I have had the Note 10.1 for about a month now and find that it goes well with my Note 2. I was on the fence about just rooting and flashing my Kindle Fire HD and using it, but I also thought what's the point of using a 7 inch along side the phone. I have been happy with it so far and running TW on both helps.
