So, my Graduation party was today and a racked up just a little bit over 2k thanks to my loving family and friends, and I need help.
Which tablet should I get? The "New" iPad(3), or the Asus Transformer Prime? Try and be as unbiased as you can if possible, because normally, I too would pick Android over Apple any day. But here's my thinking when it comes to this.
One of the reasons I love Android is the customization. And let's face it, we all know Android has that over iOS. And I love customizing.
So my main thing comes down to the screen and app support.
I LOVE Android.. but iOS just has better complete apps as there is like.. zero fragmentation between devices. And there is a few more big name apps to pick from. Also, it takes advantage of the amazing screen. On my phone I don't really play too many games as I am more into tinkering and stuff, but I see myself using more apps on an actual tablet.
However, I feel like screen on the iPad is also wasted quite a bit. YouTube still doesn't have an "HD" choice on it and.. that's how I watch most of my videos. The screen has almost no point to it if it plays the videos in SD. When comparing the Transformer Prime's "HD" Youtube versus the iPads, the Prime's looked better in almost all cases. When on the homescreen, the iPad's looked better but not anything too outstanding to me. Also, I don't and won't spend my time looking at High-Res photo's on my phone/tablet.
But.. the new Transformer Prime with an "upped" screen resolution should be out sometime this summer so I'd see myself having an old device in a matter of months while if I get the iPad, I can enjoy having one of the top tablets for another probably, 7-10months or so.
Even with all this thinking I'm still half and half. Just not sure what to do haha.
FYI - When it comes to phones, it's Android no matter what.
