Best combination : Nexus 7 as tablet and iphone OR ipad mini as tablet and Android phone ?

I have the Nexus 7 now, but may return it.
In my opinion you need to decide what type of person you are.
Do like time proven, less to no hassle and well thought out user friendliness and stability?
Or do you enjoy constantly changing adding, deleting and maintaining your software and hardware?
Some people find a joy in learning a new operating system and its hardware in detail.
Some people just want to be able to do most everything with NO hassle.
iTunes and all the podcast are a BIG plus to me.
Itunes is a big plus that has no competition at this point in my opinion.
If you work in medicine/healthcare the ipad is the clear way to go because of all the apps and podcast.
I also had the K Fire HD... what a pile of crap!
I also think the colors/display looks better on the iPads. I compared Netflix side by side.
The Nexus 7 is just ok in my opinion but I bet it/the OS will get better.
Most everything like automobiles, speakers, TVs, etc. are made with the Apple products in mind, so that you can use the iPhone/iPad to control and interact.

I've been an Android phone user for the past 2 years, and have an Nexus 7 since August. Just received an iPad 2 three weeks ago. I also have an iPhone 3GS since 2009 that I now only use as an MP3 player connected to my home stereo system. I would say the best mix of iOS and Android products would be the Android phone and iPad.
 
You realize that you are the very definition of a troll don't you. If you put half the time into your posting about your problem as you have with your trolling, you may have located your issue. Which being an issue that almost no one is having, means that it is probably a self inflected issue at that....

I have the Nexus 7, but I am probably going to return and buy a iPad mini. What good is a WiFi only product that will NOT connect to WiFi?
My N7 will NOT connect to some wifi and it seems to not play podcast. I downloaded Podkicker to no avail.
The N7 is not a piece of crap like the Fire HD but...it is not nearly as stable , no iTunes(I listen and watch a LOT of podcast about tech, automotive, medical, motorcycle, financial, comedy, news, FoxBusiness, Fox news...) the iPad is just less hassel and easier to use. If you do not want to be a repair person go to the iPad. If you want to continue to learn another OS and constantly update and add apps so that it will work go with the N7.
Most automobile manufactures and tech is now built to be very easy just plug and play/use with Apple.
In medicine/healthcare there are more apps and podcast for the Apple OS and iOS.
Also the speakers and music/sound is better on the iPad and i think the DAC is better on the iPad.
The N7 is nice, in my opinion because if nothing else it gives Apple a little competition! I think the Android/N7 will continue to improve and may at some point really give the iPad tough competition.
The other big thing is Apple has Stores you may go to for help and Apple Care with people that live here in the USA and speak our language!!!!
The Apple people also know the hardware and software, and if you get someone that does not know your particular issue they get you someone that does!
Where are the Android stores? There are non that I know of, that have experts that will help like at the Apple stores.
These reasons are why I bought my blind brother the iPhone and my parents the iMac. I do not want to have to always be fixing software and hardware problems like I would with Microsoft and other OS.
Alright Apple hating lunatics blast away and tell me how wrong I am.
 
I like keeping my toes in both worlds. Many of the apps I like are free or I purchased long ago when I used to have an iPhone.

I couldn't be happier with my setup....

android phone (note 2) and apple mini. Personally I consider this the best device in each o.s. world.

(I recognize the nexus 7 is an excellent device but I needed a larger tablet and the n7 really was to close in size to my N2).
 
I have a nexus 7,gs3 and an ipod touch

Each serves its own purpose, only reason I keep the ipod is because iTunes destroys Google Music

Ios bores me, just my opinion, but the actual ipod device is cool

Sent from my Google Nexus 7 running aokp 4.1.2, because there is no PacMan rom for the nexus :(
 
Same here..IPad 2 and android phone (GS3)..I've gotten so used to my phone that I just tried to swype on my ipad..lol
 
Hi guys,

Firstly, sorry for upping a long ago thread. But I have an idea that is related to the discussion and hope I can get your feedback.

I am a dual platform guy. I use a Samsung S4 mini (never liked big phones) and the newest iPad Mini Retina. I use my iPad mainly for all the variation of wonderful apps that feel better on iOS. The phone well is just a phone. (messaging, calling, emails). On weekends, on short walks, I take only my iPad out.

But as a dual platform guy, I started to miss my Phone calls and messages when I am on my iPad. I like to keep my phone plugged in charging because Android phones have worse battery life somehow.

So I had an idea to copy my Android Notifications to my iPad. I am in the ideas stage so if you have the small problem as me, would you like to sign up for the beta?
