please tell me what benefits the ipad offers over this thing to justify a $400 price bump.
You will never get an answer to this.

Please point me to an article where Android users are pointing out that not having those I/O ports are an issue?
I can point to many a threads where BGOL android fanatics made not having these I/O ports on Apple devices a huge fucking issue![]()
I do not see similar outcry now when Google releases it's first tablet
Anyways I've made my point. Fuck this shit!!!
iPad TapaTalk
With the iPad/iOS devices, according to Android fanatics, it is.
Now with Nexus, it's no longer an issue
It's all good: No expandable (SD slot), no HDMI out...It's all good!!! Nexus 7 is the best tablet,light years ahead of the iPad
Didn't they (Android fanatics) ether the hell out of iPad and iPhone for lacking these same features![]()
How much is it to add those features? Can't be more than 10 dollars on the cost side.
The fact is, it's used as a point of debate as to why apple is fucked up - because you can't expand the memory. Also the flash issue.
Now google follows suit, so that point is taken away.
It's simple though - buy what you want. And that's it.
Shit I may get the nexus simply because it'll be updated and it's cheap. Got a 10" iPad and then a 7" nexus. Super portable.
Is an SD Card slot really a "luxury"? There are cheap tablets on the market (sub $100) with SD Card slots...
Yea I see them as luxuries as well. More so the HDMI. I have never wanted to plug-in my tablet.. but have used the Airplay on several occasions..
You will never get an answer to this.

The Apple Dumplings Unit is in full force on this day 7-7-12if i were buying a tab right now, i'd take this over the ipad based on value.

They used to bitch about having to jailbreak the iPhone proclaiming you should not have to do that. Now rooting is commonplace.
The difference is it's a $200.00 dollar tablet. For the price of a iPad I better get those features. That's how most Android fans feel. If you can't see that you are just dumb as fuck or a apple dick rider. I betting that you are a rider.

The article in the first post. The reviewer is not happy about not having extra space. Check articles on endgadget and bgr. You will see comments from people that are not happy about this. Its what prevents people from buying it. I've already said, the Samsung galaxy tab 2 7" is the better option because it can take a 64gb card. And its only $250.

Most times I read articles on CNET, BGR, Engadget and even 9to5Mac, but I generally never read the comments which is maybe why I have not seen the outcry.

I swear ya'll must be against streaming. I have a Galaxy Nexus and I still have 8GB free. Max Payne, NBA Jam, Grand Theft Auto and some productivity aps. All my music is on GoogleMusic, so I still have access to my 45GB of music at home.
For those of you that say the price doesnt matter when it comes to features, it does. Every extra connection that is on a tablet costs money. Its like options on a car. The bottom line is, this is the first major 200 pure Android tablet with specs of some higher priced ones. Streaming is big on Android, thats what you Apple fans don't get. It coincides with the Nexus series being sans a SD slot, Google wants its users to stream, which is what I do and still have half my room left on my phone.
Yeah. You won't see the outcry in the actual articles because the writers try to remain neutral. But not everyone is excited about this tablet.

This sort of proves your point but at the same time, shows that android users are not happy.

what are the tradeoffs?

Me, like many.. think 7 inch screen is too small and awkward.

apple is developing a 7" ipad.
so the 3" size difference justifies a $400 price bump? im sure u do know how dumb that sounds.
If that rumor turns out to be true, there will be a market for both sizes. But the fact remains, some people aren't interested in a 7" tablet, and some are.
The iPad 2 is $399, so that would be a $200 cost difference ASSUMING the rumor that a 7" iPad will be $200 is true.
Tegra 3′s quad-core configuration blazes past the dual-core A5X, garnering GeekBench scores of 1540 and 750, respectively. Interestingly, the A5X’s average score fell a few points short of the iPad 2′s standard A5 chip, 753. Both the A5X and the A5 also fell shy of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1′s Tegra 2, which received an overall score 905. The gains made by the Tegra 3 are easily chalked up to its two extra cores, but it is also boasts the highest clocking speed of the group at 1.6GHz, compared to the 1GHz clock of the A5X, A5 and Tegra 2.
stop being a fucking dummy.
why are u comparing the ipad 2 to the nexus 7 when theres a new ipad out?
the new ipad is already behind the nexus in the processor department if im not mistaken so why would u go even further back?
here's an idea of how the tegra 3 in the nexus (similar to tegra 3 in the transformer prime) lines up with the a5 or a5x in the ipads. $400 price bump for older specs and worse performance.

No, why are you comparing the Nexus 7 to the *new* Retina iPad. If you must compar a LOW end Nexus 7 to an iPad, a more realistic comparison would be to the iPad which is still being sold by Apple. So, you can get a brand new iPad 2 for $399. DUMMY.
Shut the fuck up you lil bitch. We were comparing the Galaxy 10.1 and the iPad. Same EXACT class...and neither has an HDMI.
I'm confused.. they both have proprietary ports and both manufacturers sell an adapter for HDMI. I think the one difference is that adapter for the iPad doesn't allow for 1080p movies
for the sake of argument we'll just say... much slower processor and slightly bigger screen for around $200 or $400 more...depending on the model.
sounds hot to me.
Yes... and most people don't care about processor speed - even the new iPad retina is behind new tabs in that area. Its a non-issue. That's a very small demographic who worry about things like that. So for those who think 9.7" screen is better for them versus a 7" screen will pay the difference.
Me, like many.. think 7 inch screen is too small and awkward.
which leads me back to my original point.
$200 - $400 more for a bigger screen.
stupid to me but maybe on point for somebody else.
Have you actually tried it though? Not go to to the store and try it but really try it. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab plus and I love it. In my opinion 7 inches is almost the perfect size for a tablet, especially if portability is a necessity, as it is with me. I can pull out my laptop if I need a bigger screen.
Don't knock the size unit you really try it.
which bring me back to mine, some people are not interested in a smaller tablet and some are. So those who want a bigger tablet they will pay 200-400 for it. That's why Samsung has. 7.1 and 10.1
