#1 iPad mini:
After the success of the 10” iPad model, Apple decided to throw up a revolutionary iPad mini with a 7.9” to get to more people who found the 10” model too big to handle, but does the iPad mini stand by itself?
Let’s talk about the first impression, from the first moment you will hold an iPad mini you will realize that this is the size a tablet meant to be, not as big as a laptop neither small as a smart phone, it weighs only (0.73 pound/ 331 grams).
The most important thing about a tablet is the high quality screen resolution specially seen with the iPad mini Retina display model, which makes a lot fun surfing the web, checking email, watching videos and reading E-books, and much simpler tasks Netbooks were originally designed to do.
To use the iPad mini for more productive purposes, such as editing office documents, go to the Apple app store, and download Apple's productivity iWork suite: Pages (word processing), Numbers (spreadsheets) and Keynote (slideshows) which is now available for free to download from the app store, can you actually imagine that each one of those apps was available for $9.99 dollars each? It is a big step for Apple to gain more costumers.
You will probably enjoy the iPad Mini, if you like to update later to new coming model later, just resell it down the road. Apple products always hold most of their value for a long time, because they're in such high demand.

#3 Nexus 7
Nexus 7
I'm in love with the way the new Nexus 7 feels in hands compared to the old one. The difference in the width makes holding the new nexus in your hand much more comfortable. It is slightly longer due to the enlarged bezels, still it gives a comfortable hold especially in landscape mode.
Nexus 7 has a new absolute stunning screen, comparing it to a previous generation, or any tablet on the market as of now. Some people argue that the resolution of 323 pixels per inch is unnecessary, but you can really see the difference when you use it in person. Text is significantly sharper and a little easier on the eye to read.
Comparing the camera to other flagships, it may not win the battle, still it takes a descent photos, also it delivers a remarkable an enhanced audio quality siding it with other flagships or previous generation.
In general it runs smoothly, due to the empowered CPU, which is 4 times faster than the previous generation it owns Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro, 1.5GHz, along with 2 GB of ram.
One key difference I'd like to point out over the old Tablet is the improved battery life, which lasts slightly longer than the old Nexus 7, but the fact you can use the tablet while it is plugged into the charger and it will slowly charge, while the old tablet would slowly drain.
In the Box:
- NEXUS 7 FHD by ASUS Tablet
- AC Adapter & Power Plug
- Manual Card
- Warranty Card
Price Range:
- Starting at $194
