Nexus 7 vs. Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4
This topic was originally started before the Tab Pro 8.4 had a usage history. I just purchased a Nexus 7 (2013) and was unaware of the Pro 8.4, the 7 is still in it's returnable period.. The 8" and terrific screen sharpness for e-reading are important to me. I tried to find a Nexus 8 but I guess it doesn't exist as of yet. The Pro 8.4 in currently running about $100 more than the Nexus 7 (that's a big jump for me). Can anyone offer a comparison of the two models? If the Pro is significant better I'll consider taking the plunge.
Thanks in advance... Bob

Personally, I prefer the Nexus 7's lack of bloat and fast system updates from Google, so I'd say stick with the N7.

I went with the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 and while it's more expensive I do like the screen size better. (I plan on doing some spreadsheet work on the go).

For reading, like on my Note 3 there should be a Reading Mode. I only discovered recently if you hold it down you can select which programs to activate it on. Can't see a lot of difference but it may be more effective on a larger Tab like the 8.4.
I wish they had an e-reader screen on the back though, easier on the eyes than the blue light from a backlit/side lit screen.
