I would go with Samsung and their Note tablet if you can wait they seem to have their products running pretty good (Galaxy S3) with their hardware and software, and they have good development here for their devices. I wish the Samsung Note Tablet with their CPU and hardware was out when I was deciding what to spend my $650 on.
I would wait before purchasing an Asus tablet again and see if they can fix their I/O performance problems if I were you. The Prime, Nexus 7, TF700, yeah they look nice but looks can be very deceiving as we know (Example= Prime).
IF Asus ever gets the I/O problems fixed then the TF700 or the Nexus 7 could be good choices. I wouldn't buy anything from Asus (Tablets) until you see if they can fix their current issues because if they cant fix the Primes performance they wont fix the TF700 of Nexus 7.
As an owner of the Prime I feel we were basically beta testers for the TF700. I refuse to recommend any Asus tablets after being used as a beta tester they got me once but not going to happen again. The bad part is I had to pay $650 to be beta tester!
Tablets are suppose to be a fun enjoyable experience not as frustrating as its been with the prime, we keep hearing they got an update coming out that's going to fix all the issues, but every time we get an update it does not deliver!

I doubt it. the rear camera was cut out to save on costs. Even without rear camera, its a great deal.
There is a slight chance that down the road, once manufacturing costs drop for this device, they "Might" release a revised version with rear cam. I doubt it though. never say never though

Thanks for sharing these thoughts..... i do agree with u.... the only thing that i love about this prime atm is becoz of the ROM i got. So lucky enough i happen to bump the ANDROWOOK ROM....

I would wait to see what Samsung is bringing next. If Samsung's next top tier tab comes with a Exynos 5250 it will be far superior to any Tegra powered device. But for $200 a Nexus 7 would be a great buy even if you end iPhone getting a 10" down the road. I bought a GTab 2 7" and think I like the size better than 10".

Yeah, thats what i thought about sizes. 7 is much easier for me. I can use it at almost places im in. I commute everyday by van, and cant get my prime out from my bag, and when taking pics, ridiculous, it's huge. But anyway, its still is useful inside my office....

Now that T-Mobile already shows up their new line-up for this holiday season, which phone will you get if you're eligible to upgrade?
I was initially torn between Note 2 and Nexus 4... Now I'm heading much more toward Nexus 4. lol... Note 2 starts at 370 while Nexus 4 starts at 200 Especially after watching this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66-4uMQqerA&feature=plcp
I am going to vote for Nexus 4 for myself
What's your next phone after the Amaze? Trying windows phone maybe?
Gonna have to stay with my Amaze for just a little longer and then sell it by Christmas. Hopefully a 32GB Nexus 4 gets released by then. If not, I'll go with the 16GB. The Note 2 is a beast of its own but it's too big and too expensive and I'm bored of the GS3. As for Windows Phone 8, meh.
I'm done with HTC and their BS unless they come out with a Nexus phone of their own.

Lol... That's pretty close to summing up my thought. :highfive: Note 2 seems too big and expensive especially considering I got a Nexus 7. The only downside for me are the microSD and battery I couldn't careless about LTE since T-Mobile doesnt even have it (and LTE just sucks up battery)
I would also wait a few weeks or a month just to make sure I am aware of the problems especially for the first batch
Am I the only one that is gonna stay with my Amaze? lol. I sold my S3 because my Amaze was so much better.
Seriously thinking about selling my Amaze for a Nexus 4! Though I'll probably wait and see if there are any issues with it first...
Nexus 4, especially just because Tmobile is its main carrier.

Im going to stick with my Amaze for a while i recently got it. The note is nice but not for me and I don't like the Nexus 4 non expandable storage so I'll wait and hope HTC creates a phone that's better than the One X.

3 reasons actually...
1- i wont have the money for those other choices. (barely will have enough for the s3)
2- i know the s3 has support
3- i know its good.
if i do come across money though i will change my choices
Slightly off topic, but still speaking of the Nexus 4...
I hopped onto the Xda forum page for the Nexus 4 to see what sorts of things had already been posted by the Xda trolls. Guess who I found had already posted up a screenshots forum? Anyone remember Revolution/Diabolic Jr/Reviewers?
Lol... I had a good laugh.

It's $300 for the basic model on no contract (nexus 4). So yes, about 1/2 the cost of the sgs3.

I'm asking for your opinion on the device with Stock Android Experience.
Not asking if I should buy it or not.
They would have to use lower spec parts to fit with the Nexus Line prices.
Edit: Nvm its offering at $650. WOW!

I agree. It would be really nice to finally see these great phones running aosp without the need for a custom rom.
Hopefully, this one is going to come to Canada eventually...
Frankly I think it is good that they are doing this but I would rather have a nexus 5.
I'm hoping for nexus 4 prices with
2.3GHz processor
2+GB RAM
5.3 inch FHD Screen
32GB storage
Metal build
Key lime pie
Multi window
Then and only then will i replace my nexus 4. Dont really care about fhd though and the s4 is no faster than my OCed nexus 4
It will be incredible if google goes with the Exynos 5 Octa
Will this come with other features from the original s4?? Not the touch wiz but other stuff

I like the idea, but not the price (and based on the audience reaction...neither did they). I mean you can get an unlocked HTC One for around $560ish. From there, one could root/ROM it and be good to go. Now if the price drops to say $500 or less, I'd be willing to shell out the cash. Which I hope the price point will change. This is a great start to offering a bloat free device, without having to root/ROM it. This would be great if other manufacturers followed suit.
Good move nonetheless!
A true Nexus Samsung phone would be the only way I'd buy another Samsung phone. Getting rid of Touchwiz is easy, but I just can't deal with the lagging of releasing updates.
Boo... too expensive, too mainstream, to dang normal. Optimus g pro version would be nice that's bad ass or version of Sony z... both would be better all around and could be at $500 Google price. I was so disappointed! I just returned my nexus 4 thinking they were going to release something better. I'll stick with my note!!

Is a Nexus 7 worth it at this point? There's a good deal at a shop here and it's really tempting, but on the other hand there are all these rumors of a N 7 2 being announced soon, so yeah..but I wanted to ask you guys if it's worth buying now, or wait? Thanks!
If you like it and want it now, get it. Price is already low... Otherwise wait.
technology moves on. My chinese G3S phone has slightly faster performance. Planning on gaming? or just need a tablet?

A little bit of both. I plan on making it my primary device to play Android games, watch some movies, read comics etc. Could a Nexus 7 2 be THAT much better? I imagine it would have the new Snapdragon 600, maybe 2 gb ram. hmm..
nexus 7 is really worth buying. go for it.

Yeah right. No way it will be 249. The nexus 7 is 249. The nexus 10 will have to probably be same as first version. 399 for 16 GB and 499 for 32 GB. (Maybe you meant euros?) I don't know where your from but I'm talking about dollars. Anyways I think 100 bucks for 16 GB is too much more. But the cheapest variant will most likely be 399.
If there even is one because it hasn't been confirmed its just being assumed there will be a new version. Google could just make a whole new tablet

I've also seen articles saying 299... makes me question the quality of the tablet if it's set at that price.
For Snapdragon 800 I believe it's true, also 3GB RAM too. Now 1080p screen? Are you kidding me or what? Nexus 10 made it fame for its 2560x1600 screen, which is the main point for me buying mine. Also another thing we need to know is who will produce it. I wonder if will be Samsung again or Asus, if Samsung, it's pretty sure we will see an Exynos processor, like the current Nexus 10.
I don't mind paying 399 or 499 if its well built. I'd take that over a 299 device that's neutered for sure. I'm hoping there's a 64gb option.

Pretty sure it's been confirmed to be ASUS.
There's no way the new Nexus 10 is being released for $299. The new Nexus 7 was released for $229, which was $29 more than the original Nexus 7.
I'm guessing $399-$429 for the base model.
The screen will be 2560x1600, since the new Asus Transformer Pad Infinity (TF701T) has a 2560x1600 screen. No sense for Asus to make a lower res screen for a new tablet.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the new Nexus 10 is just the TF701T without the keyboard.
Do you think the Nexus 10 2 will in fact be released this month or next month?

Yeah that it what I was thinking as well. I need a tablet now though. So its either a Nexus 10 or a Asus Memo Pad FHD. The Nexus is about $360 and the Asus is about $300
Nexus 5 will be unveiled in October the 14th. I can see them unveiling the Nexus 10 2 as well just like last year. Remember last year's unveiling was delayed by a hurricane and when the unveiling came Google produced all both devices and 4.2 at the same event.
It will be kit kat, N5 and N10 all on the same date I'm pretty certain.
Roll on the 14th.

I think my Nexus 10 prediction may be wrong as there have hardly been any leaks yet and there have been numerous nexus 5 leaks.
I think the Nexus 10 will be released in November. There is a redesign of the Play Store to accommodate tablet apps on 21st of November which may coincide with a tablet release.

No I can wait about 2 weeks. I need one by the end of this month. I do have a feeling though that they will only release the Nexus 5 this month and the Nexus 10 2 next month towards the end. Then I would have to pick a tablet before then.
