My grandmother's 90th birthday is coming up and I am looking to replace her aging, virus infested, desktop with a new tablet. I'm debating between the Nexus 10 and the iPad 4 Retina. The price is about the same - $399 for the Nexus and $419 for an Apple refurb.
I'm an Android guy. I had the original T-Mobile G1 on day one. I had the Xoom on day one. I currently have a Galaxy S3, Nexus 4, Nexus 10, and the new Nexus 7 on order. I would never own an Apple product. But, I'm leaning towards giving Apple some of my cash for this purchase.
98% of what she will do is email, browse the web, Facebook, Skype, and look at YouTube videos so apps are not really an issue. I just think that the iPad may be an easier user experience for her with less chances of messing something up or getting confused. I also think it will be easier for her to get help from friends / neighbors on an iPad versus the Nexus 10 (none of the family lives in the same state).
Any different opinion out there?
