What the hell has this to do with "tablet S General"?
It really has nothing to do with Sony but for the record, I'm not buying the Nexus 7 tablet, for a start I don't like the fact it has a phone user interface, yes, it's smart but it's Jelly Bean, any device with Jelly Bean would act in the same way - seeing as though Sony has confirmed Jelly Bean for this device than i'll wait thanks!

Well if none of the android tablets are any good then why are you getting another one ?
I am waiting until they release a Nexus10. I bought the original Galaxy Tab 7" thinking that I preferred the smaller tablet as I could grip it in one hand. Then I bought the Sony Tablet S and I love the larger screen.

I'm with Gramon on this one. As cheap as a Nexus 7 is, it's missing too many features for me, and that 7" form factor is just too small after upgrading my old GT-P1000 7" Galaxy Tab for the Sony's glorious 9.4". I would never go back.
For an added bonus, I don't know what problems you guys are having. I have the occasional WiFi disconnect (saves battery so I live with it), but everything else about mine is still great.

Totally agreed. I want a nexus7 just for the ease of carrying, nothing more. You cant do anything productive with a 7inch tablet. it really depends with what youre using the tablet for. For me, its reading magazines and comics, so 7inches is too small for a comfortable viewing (ive tried the galaxy tab7, not so nice) so 10 inches is the most appropriate, for me. It really depends on what youre mostly using it for. I agree with the wifi thing, it saves battery.
For the mean time ill be sticking to my tablet s till the xperia tablet is out, the folded magazine design still wins me over other tablets.

I swear I should just keep this on clipboard!
The Nexus 7 is cheap and relatively capable, but doesn't have have any of the bells and whistles, and most importantly is much smaller at 7". This will be particularly noticeable when reading and watching videos. It is however much more portable.
The Surface is currently unavailable so pricing is an unknown at this point. The Surface is much larger and is aimed at more of a laptop-replacement than most others. It runs Windows 8 which you will either like or absolutely detest. It will come in two variants: the more power-efficient, thinner and lighter but feature-limited ARM version and the larger x86 version with extra ports, processing power and the ability to run full Windows including legacy apps. The OS is its biggest feature and that's a personal choice.
The XPERIA tablet is designed as a replacement for the Tablet S and is slightly thinner and lighter, but with a more conventional form factor. Beyond that, who knows. It hasn't been announced yet (expect that at IFA), but it will probably be a Tegra 3-powered device similar to the S, but a bit more conventional. This is all complete hearsay, so do not put confidence in it.
My final message would be: don't decide now. Wait until after IFA and after more details about the new generation of tablets emerge. Then decide, but remember the golden rule:
There is no best tablet, only the best tablet for a specific purpose.
Waiting till September

Also, this might just be me, but if you already have a Galaxy Note, a 7" Nexus 7 is probably not the right choice for you. There's only going to be 2 inches of difference between them. This is just my opinion, of course, but make sure you try out a Nexus before you go buying one.
Is it still recommendable to buy a XTZ now given that the nexus 7 has already been released and the note 10.1 has been refreshed? I just sold my ipad 4 and was originally set on buying the nexus 7 but am hesistant because of all the build quality problems.
How is the AOSP program coming along? Are the CM builds usable? What sort of bugs are there?
Thank you

I literally Just bought an XTZ 32GB this week (Right after watching Samsung announce the the new Note 10.1), and in the two days I've had it I have ZERO regrets. This sucker is FAST, and the screen is gorgeous!
Haven't used the CM builds yet but I understand there are stable ones out.

I would buy another XTZ as opposed to the Nexus or Note tablets, there are too many issues with the Nexus tablets for me and the Note tablets have terrible dev support thanks to Samsung and their lies.
The XTZ is amazing, the AOSP builds have everything working except HDMI/HLL. That's not supported on any device with CM though as far as I know.

Are the AOSP builds stable with almost no bugs? how is the battery life?
I'll be getting the 16gb version, correct me if I'm wrong but I can send sms with this thing right? Just no LTE?
Is the battery life that big of an issue?

I would definitely buy the XTZ. That's a great tablet, especially for the form factor.
It's brillant to watch movies too. I recently did transatlanctic flights and was happy with the battery drain: only around 15% per movie.
The battery drain is much more important when playing "hard" such as Real Racing 3, and you feel the tablet heat! But I guess this would be the same with all other tabs.
I consider buying it also but:
What about that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419767

IFA is over and you know whats coming this year.
I am using cm10.2. Next step will be a multiboot solution with Ubuntu Touch.
Don`t forget do buy a dock. This is very important->no more opening of the ports (this can really suck)
Color adjustments (white is not Paperwhite) problems at low brightness, bleeding and this torsion problem exist. @cm10.2 i never noticed the torsion problem and the bleeding is minimal.
CM is usable, but i think(know) the SonyUI and 4.2 are a great deal, too.
i would recommend it thou the home screen is still laggy with the 4.2 update
nova etc solve it but cant understand why sony could not fix it
one ques for fellow xtz owners - does appgratis load and open properly on ur xtz ?
Just arrived today ....
I just opened the box a couple hours ago. Fired it up and the battery was at 60%.
Can't put it down.
I was using an HP Touchpad with CM9. Big difference!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tablet!
Tablet is still awesome. I just wish I had a case that was as nice to use as the Poetic Slimline but without the weight... So far none of the other cases are as nice.
Iv used mine for some time now, its a great tablet however I think something like the nexus 7, or Z ultra is more comfortable for me, Im trying to sell mine but here in India i dont know anyone who wants to buy it.

It's still the best case i've seen by far. Just that it basically weighs as much as the tablet.
FYI
If you are using a case without magnetic lock. you can insert a small magnet inside your case cover. magnetic sensor is located at the left side of the front camera( screen facing you ).
screen will automatically turned off when the cover is closed and it will turned on when you open it.

Poetic slimline from Amazon
I ordered the Poetic slimline from Amazon and I can confirm there is access to the charging port and the weight factor is no big deal.
Excellent case.

Glad to see so many like this tablet, I'm giving serious thought to buying one. I sold my Asus transformer tf300t, my last 2 android phones have been Samsung, my wife has a nexus 7 and I've never owned a Sony android device. The xperia z is probably the best looking tablet I've ever seen and the video reviews I have watched of it just make me want it more.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
Okay.
If you want a 10.1" tablet I'll still recommend the Tablet Z.
If you're happy with a 7" Tablet go for the new Nexus 7.
Both tablets have the same processor, so you won't really notice a difference in performance.
As for the fact that the Nexus 7 runs stock Android without bloatware, it runs slightly faster than the XTZ, but not that much.

So there was no successor presented at IFA, which makes me wonder why?
The Xperia Z was announced in January and released in February, now we already have the Z1.
The Xperia Tablet Z was announced in February and released in May, and although it's still a good device, it would have needed the some overhaul (things like IP58 instead of IP57, additional GSM voice communication, 3GB RAM, Snapdragon 800 + Adreno 330, better camera).
I am especially curious because the Xperia Tablet Z is already on the remaining stock list at our mobile network operator and pretty much sold out.
I've never had a tablet before, but I'll get two for free when I renew two data plans at the beginning of next year, so I have some more time to wait and see, but if nothing was announced at IFA, when is the next possibility for a successor to the XTZ?
I bought a Samsung 10.1 2014 ed the other day and it is a nice device, however i am saddened by the lack of development that is currently has and that it wont probably in the future because of KNOX. I think my Walmart still has some Nexus 10s and i was thinking of going this route. I am huge stock android guy, currently running it since day 1 on my GS4. I have read reviews and things about browser lag but this was at launch and im sure rooting and running AOSP solves a lot of issues. I also don't feel like waiting for the Nexus 10 2 whenever/whatever that may be.
Any reason why I should not switch over to the Nexus?
EDIT- Now i'm seeing the LG G Pad 8.3 ....

Well the note 2014 seems like itd be better to me. It's got the s pen for notes and more ram. The gpad 8.3 is a good choice if you don't mind the smaller size. They also have a Google play edition so you'll have such android. I would switch for a gpad 8.3 if I could just to try something new though I'm perfectly fine with my nexus 10. With KitKat it's nice and smooth and everything works great for me.

I'll never use the S-Pen unfortunately. Now i'm really torn between Nexus 10 and LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play edition
I had a Note 10.1 2014 for about 12 hours but sent it back, it had a malfunctioning backlight that's too common. I was going to root it, Knox or not, after a few weeks once I had established the hardware seemed ok so it was less of a risk voiding the warranty. I returned it and decided to go a used N10 route.
I didn't think I'd use the S-Pen, and upon playing with it more I pretty much confirmed it. I thought that, even not using the S-Pen, the specs themselves were worth the upgrade over the Nexus 10. And, if you're not afraid to root and take out a ton of the crap, run a different launcher, it may actually be. But I have fairly sharp eyes and could see the Pentile subpixel arrangement, and after already being indecisive about dropping that much on a tablet I was going to ruin the warranty on, it just was too much.
As an alternative to Walmart you can go the Amazon route. They have been up and down on their prices and were generally at the $400 mark until pulling back up to $450-ish. I know our Wal-Mart still has the Nexus 10 at full price, so going the Amazon route would save you a little bit of money. As I posted in another thread, if you're willing to go used you can get a far better deal, usually in the low $300's for a 32gb version.
There is also the Asus Transformer TF701. It has its own list of shortcomings but might be a viable alternative if you don't think you'll be bothered by them. It's priced new at $430 now.

Just picked up my Nexus 10....definitely like the Note better.
I told you the note would be better. It has better specs and it's newer. The only thing bad about it is touchwiz. But it's also costs much more than the nexus 10 (100 dollars right?) So you should probably switch back unless you want to try the lg gpad which looks really appealing

Well that's good choice. How big is the I pad mini though? I don't think the 8 inches is too bad. You can try checking out the normal lg gpad at the store since they're the same mostly besides the software.

Ipad mini is 7.9. For me, anything between 4.7" (or other reasonably sized phone screens, reasonably doesn't include 5.5+) and 10" is a waste of time IMO. I had the OG N7 for almost a year and liked it for playing games because it was easy to hold. Other than that, I hated it. The screen is entirely too cramped and I might as well just be using my phone. The 8" tablets are only moderately better.

Hi guys I'm thinking of buying a Song Ultra Z and just wanted to get you guy's input if there are some downfalls that I don't know of/commonly known.

I too, came from the Note and i'm still happy with it (bought mine last september). It's pretty big (but very thin) and the camera isn't the greatest, and that's about it really.

Buy the Sony phone and run the ported GPe ROM on it !
Think of buying this phone as it is relatively cheap compared to other phones im my region.
Should I get this or the G2, the prices are the same...
I like this thing primarily for its size and display.
I just want one thing to know, can I flash cm11 android 4.4 here? I dont care about warranty. My current phone, lg optimus 4x never fell from my hand ever, so I am careful with my devices.
I would be going for a 5.5 inch phone but this thing is the cheapest larger than 5 inch phone.

Yes, CM11, and others are available, so that's not an issue. You've probably seen the preview of Android "L" today, so just imagine that on 6.44 inches. It'll be sweet.
The G2 isn't a bad device though, but you can't compare those two since they are two different types of devices (phone vs phablet), but I can easily recommend the Ultra.
I've had every high end phone and this by far is the best if you can deal with no flash and mediocre camera performance. I never need a tablet this thing is actually my main computer. I torrent the hell out of it fixed the ext sd card write permission and download like crazy on unlimited data.

Background story
My wife is giving her iphone to her sister and needs something to last her until "the next iphone" comes out. I thought i would try to get her to like android and got an s3 (with a smashed screen) from ebay. Im planning to replace the screen and case so it will look good as new. (so if anyone knows a good place for cheep screens please let me know) I would like to install a rom that is reliable and gives a modern samsung ui. android version isnt important, though it must run well. She only mostly uses fb, email and web browsing + a few simple appps so any suggestions that fit the bill would be greatly appreciated. Im hoping after using if for a few months or so she might want to give something like the note 4 or 5 a go rather than going back to apple.
Requirements.
Modern looking ui

You made a Huge mistake,man. Since it's amoled screen it cost as much as the phone. There are no cheap amoled,amoled is amoled.

Buy an ebay phone with a dead motherboard then swap parts until you get one that works.
It would have been cheaper to buy a new moto G.
Ok. I guess i could just resell the phone on ebay.
I was trying not to spend too much as the chance is she will just get an iphone anyway. What would you recomend? That wont break the bank. But will provide a nice experience

It,s a good price for s4. People complain that 2gb of ram is barely enough for Tw and Lp,but it's individual. Good things are hd display,and 2gb of ram. I think that is ok until new Iphone.
Don,t know or i missed what she had? 5,5s? Take under consideration ,in that case ,that it's a big difference in screen size and she might not like it.

She has an iphone 5. I just want to show her how good android is she does use my note 3 sometimes. I will look online as some s4's is the alpha any good?
