Hello.
How are you?
I am currently wanting to buy a tablet.
I am thinking about an IPad 3 WiFi model.
I am a not torn between the iPad 3 or an android tablet.
This is why:
My current computer is a 2011 iMac 27 with mountain lion.
I've been using apple computers for 5 years and not using windows for all that time has been a blessing.
In regard to my cell phone, I've never had an iPhone. I am an android user from a couple of years.
My current phone is a galaxy nexus and I really enjoy the stock vanilla android and the latest jelly bean.
So, I am torn.
In my computer, I just use ITunes to listen to music, a web browser and vlc to play video files.
I don't have the need to use productivity software on my personal computer.
So, I don't really use apple apps like mail, calendar, notes and such. I rely on google services via web browser for that and keep it synced to my phone.
So, with all this in mind, should I go iPad 3 or something like the Acer a700 with its 1920x1200 screen?
I know the iPad is a great piece of kit, but I don't know how I would handle iOS and the 4:3 aspect ratio of the iPad is kind of a turn off to me.
The support from apple and timely updates are a plus.
The A700 has a more appealing 16:10 aspect ratio, removable storage, more internal storage and is cheaper, but not by much.
It is not a nexus device, so updates would depend on Acer, and I don't know how that would work out.
I also though about a nexus 7, but since its size is more close to my phone, I afraid it could me somewhat redundant device...
So, based on this, what are your opinions?
Please help me out.
Thanks.
Cheers
