Nexus S. It really has a vibrant developing community, it's Samsung, and it's cheap. Perfect Choice

I second this, If I wasn't planning on getting the new EVO this would be my device of choice (besides the gnex). It still holds up spec-wise, it has a great design and it was so far ahead of it's time's feature sets that it really isn't missing anything. Also it just got an official OTA to ICS so there's a vibrant community to support you and/or help you with development. Also since its a few years old now it wouldn't surprise me if you could get a used (in good condition) one for around 150-200$ which when you think about an unlocked phone isn't half bad.

SIII or Xperia S.
I'd recommend the Galaxy S, it's definitely still going strong, and ICS roms (all unofficial obviously) have taken off with aplomb, if you really wanna deal with ICS.
But the GB scene is still strong too. Plus it's cheap (got mine for 150 British pounds), pretty awesome and it didn't sell god knows how many million units for no reason!
Well actually I'm looking to get a GS3. On tuesday

Galaxy S WiFi/Player 5.0
OK guys and gurls here it goes
Basically I have enjoyed my time with this community and have learnt a hell of a lot to do with ROM development and have therefore used this knowledge to create my own ROM for the Galaxy s WiFi 5.0, ICS-Crumble which I am humble has been downloaded alot of times and has received great support so a HUGE thanks there. It has also allowed me to port ROMs like Hydr0g3n and others.
There comes a time when we move on lol and unfortunately that time has come. Basically I don't really want to go into great detail on why ive sold the device but im heading to University in Sep and I have to pay £400 deposit now and then £9000 a year myself so i really need the money lol
So yea thats me saying im stopping development on my ROMs but im not leaving XDA completely (im still active on the Galaxy s2) . So thanks guys and hopefully i have contributed to this great device.
Peace out

Rueben,
School is the only "good" way to freedom and that's all what we need.
Do your best.
Thanks again for your Roms tweaks.
Bye
Good luck with your degree and I understand that uni is expensive (I've been going to open days recently and its £9000 a year + living fees ) . I may also stop developing for the SGP as I'm getting a nexus 7. However I don't really want to abandon this device so I will try my best to continue devving here

Same with me, I will be receiving my HTC one s next week so I will probably be helping out with the development community over there. I won't abandon the galaxy player entirely, but most of my time and efforts will be spent over in the one s forums.
Thanks everyone for support! Too bad these galaxy players were never very popular with developers..

Wow this is a real consternation. Thanks people for all your support here . I think I will continue to be there until I get my nexus 7 too (just need the money).
Wow, sounds like the galaxy player scene is breaking up :sniff:
Well, I can't blame you guys; infact, I would switch to the nexus 7 if I could convince my parents to let me get one, lol!

That's a bad thing indeed that no devs can't help us to get at least a barebone ICS.
I know this is off topic but we were talking about nexus 7 so.. I would like to know if the nexus 7 sold at BH have the 25$ credit for play store. (I don't want to pay abusive PST from play store):

The only reason my parents are letting me get one is that my birthday is in a few weeks so google launched it at the perfect time

The only difference between play store orders and orders from retailers is the shipping date. Everything else is the same (credit, movie, magazine etc...)

I live in the UK and I can live with 16GB of space. I'm not abandoning the player but it will be much easier to develop for as it gets updates straight from Google.
Sent by my Robot Butler
Guess who's getting a nexus 7 as well.... It sounds like this community is about to completely fall apart . I will continue development for the 4.0, that is until school starts, then I will probanly be nexus only, if I start devving for it. I guess we all need to work really hard the next few weeks to get ics working before the nexus takes us away .
WOW i seemed to have started a Trend lol
Wow, haha, if this keeps up the entire galaxy player community will be found in the nexus 7 forums, lol!

It looks like Googles plan is working. I think the galaxy player community will still continue developing, just at a slower rate and I will try not to abandon this pretty great device

Then maybe I should reconsider my plan to purchase a Nexus 7... I feel sorry for those still here, but you can't deny the huge hardware boost the Nexus has.

I've been reading through the specs for the Nexus 7 and the SGP 5.0 has slightly better specs in some areas.
The Nexus 7 only has b/g/n wifi but SGP has a/g/b/n so better wifi connectivity (faster, less interference on SGP)
SGP has a rear camera although it doesn't work on any ICS roms
The SGP has physical buttons (I don't like on-screen buttons so much)
The SGP has a micro-SD card slot
The SGP comes with an unlocked bootloader (Nexus bootloaders are easy to unlock with a fastboot command but it wipes data and can prevent ota updates)
However, the Nexus 7 is still an amazing device and I'm sorry for the slightly off topic post
No dude, don't stop yourself from getting a nexus 7 because of us! Face it; galaxy player hardware is 3 generations old, and with amazing devices like the nexus 7 coming out, the life of it is over. I don't think many people will choose a single core gingerbread device over a quad core jb device, so the galaxy player is finished, mostly. It was an epic device, and if Samsung had marketed it right, could have been a huge hit. To late, so time to move on. Even if I do get a nexus 7, I will probably keep up on my galaxy player, for sentimental purposes, lol!

Sadly, an iPad II. I seriously don't know what possessed me! At the time there wasn't really an Android tablet that appealed to me or that was available in my country. I desperately want to get rid of it and replace it with a new Galaxy Tab. iOS is crrrrrrrrrrap! You cant even do simple things like Bluetooth files from one device to another! Some of the apps and games on iOS are ok but as for the functionality/customisability, it is non-existant!
I have the nexus 7 32gb version. Before I had the Asus transformer.
Both great tablets but I fancied a smaller form factor after a year with a 10.1 inch tablet. And I could not resist the 7's price tag either! Especially after I tried a friends one at work one time.

I have an iPad 2 16 gb 3G been offered a trade for a p7500 I'm leaning toward doing it just prefer android over ios. Although I do admit my ipad has been a good tablet my main gripes with it are the speaker which it seems the 7500 does better. Also I was hoping to be able to Bluetooth tether from my galaxy note to conserve battery over wifi tethering.
Has anyone else made the jump from an iPad 2 over to a 7500? Any regrets?
All of my family members use iPads but me. 2 ipad 2s and 2 iPad 3s.
I use galaxy note 10.1 and I love it. I would never trade mine for any iPad including upcoming iPad 5.
Lol but that's just me. I am just saying I have no regrets. I love s pen. I dunno about gal tab 2. I only used it for one day then sold it. I liked galaxy tab 2 10.1 but i wanted the pen.
Anyways u will like the tab if u like ansroid. U are talking about tab 2 10.1 right? Not tab 10.1.

Believe it's the tab 1 the p7500 I've done a lot of searching online seems to be similarly specd as the iPad 2. Obviously the tab 2 is better but I'm hoping the tab 1 will still keep me satisfied for awhile.
I would probably just stick with the ipad if I were you.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Oh, yes, stick with the ipad. If it were a tab 2 10.1, It'd be a fairly good deal, but giving away an ipad2 3g for a p7500 you're being had.

Apart from the tab 2 being newer and having a micro sd slot, there is absolutely no difference in spec to the original tab 10.1. The original wifi version cost £400 while the tab 2 only costs around £250 at the moment. Its not a better device.

Are you still looking to do this trade?
I'm looking into getting a tablet. The new nexus 7 intrigues me but is the size all that different to the note 2? What tablets do you guys have? Do you find yourself using it over your giant phone?

My wife has the galaxy tab 2 7.0 and I play with that one. I don't like the size compared to my note ii. But I do plan on getting the new nexus 10 when it comes out.
About her galaxy tab. It feels too small. Like its not a tablet but a phone. As ridiculous as it sounds. She likes it because she can easily store it in her purse whenever we go anywhere. That's always a plus, but she does also only have a 4.3" phone so its a big difference in screen size to her.

I'll second the notion posted above, that the 7" tablet is kind of pointless when you have the Note 2. For what it's worth, since moving to the Note 2 I no longer use either my Nexus 7 nor my full-size iPad. I seldom need anything but my Note 2 and my laptop, which spends most of its days docked in my home office.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4
Now that I have the Note2 I rarely use my touchpad running android. If/when it dies I will probably replace it with a Nexus 10. The weight difference between the 2 tablets will probably cause me to use a tablet more often.

I have a first gen nexus 7, and recently I bought a note 8. The note 8 is what I reach for the most. The nexus was too small and rarely used liked the other posters point out. But the Note 8 is the perfect balance of size for me. Note 8 development is not the best, but I like TW so im running stock rooted on it. The fact that it has a sd slot helps a lot too. The price is higher though. Something else to note (ha), I do use the spen a lot. If the spen is not a selling point for you on a tablet, it may not be worth the extra cost. Good luck tablet shopping!

I have had the Note 10.1 for about a month now and find that it goes well with my Note 2. I was on the fence about just rooting and flashing my Kindle Fire HD and using it, but I also thought what's the point of using a 7 inch along side the phone. I have been happy with it so far and running TW on both helps.
