I have no idea if I'm asking this in the right section or not but I'm looking for something like Google Glass but it doesn't necessarily need to be a pair of glasses. I stumbled on this and a unique feature of it that I hadn't seen before is the ability to put it on a headband, in case you...

I figured the S4 was the current range of high-end Samsung Tabs but I wasn’t 100% onboard with the form factor, which had me looking elsewhere until there weren’t any other comparable devices. Also the price jump between the S2 and current gen of S-range Tabs is rather significant.

Preferably in the 8” range. Is the Galaxy Tab A in the same ballpark or would that be a step down?

It's been out for almost two years, it seems. Does that still hold up now? Also is 32GB a good size? I keep running out of space on a 16GB Dell Venue 8 7000 (and I can't move enough stuff to my 32GB card to keep it cleaned up). Also non-Samsung tablet suggestions are welcome too. I just want a...

I wasn't aware of the platform fragmentation between ARM and x86-based Android devices (in hindsight, this is somewhat poor form for someone of my background). Is it a problem?

I do use an SD card, yes. Though I'm not sure this thread is still relevant. I copped out and installed Cyanogenmod on it so none of the system conditions are the same as when I originally posted the thread. I need to use it some first to even get a feel for any battery life changes. Also I...

I noticed that my Tab Pro 8.4 has a tendency to heat up a lot around the left side of the device then the battery life sinks dramatically (as in I can actually lose battery if I use the tablet while it's plugged in). I think the CPU is overdriving or something but I don't know how to correct...

I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse but I feel like I have to object to Google's pushback against external storage. In a perfect world, yes, a big block of homogeneous internal storage would be great. But the reality is that with apps getting larger and larger (particularly games but also...

I don't know how useful this info will be but the device needs to have SDXC support to read it. If it's capable of reading a 64GB card then it can read the 128 as both are XC cards.

No but I'm definitely leaning towards it. I've researched the method, I just need to do it.

Just a simple, all-in-one, "doesn't-matter-how-the-app-treats-the-SD-card" way to put apps and their associated data (particularly games, which often have huge accompanying files that can burn space like napalm) on an SD card? I think Link2SD seems pretty good but I'm hesitant of spending money...

*Slaps hand on the table to create a scene.* This is an outrage! Why is this a restriction?! The option is grayed out as a secondary user and I see no way to enable the feature, even from the owner's account. Other Android 5.0 users have been complaining about this problem as well. It's a huge...

If it were between the Nexus 7 and Tab Pro 8.4, you want the Tab Pro. The performance is there. If you had said "Nexus 9" it'd be a different story. Then I'd say consider the 9 because I would rather have a more stock Android build on a tablet. Having used TouchWiz UI for the better part of a...

It's not really so much "if" but "when". I don't think it's a priority for Samsung. Plus I'd rather have a more pared down Android implementation. Admittedly I don't much care for the "Magazine UX" interface and the main Android interface Samsung provides (I guess it's called "TouchWiz") keeps...

Not sure. My contract expires next month but as far as the phone goes I've been wanting to stay on the iOS platform in some capacity but as far as getting a new iDevice I want to wait to see what is announced next year (which I expect to be the iPhone 6S). If I went with an Android phone it...
