Which Apple tablet is better?

Nithin Sundar

I've never owned a Apple device till now and I'm thinking of getting my parents a iPad. Which one is a good device from the below? iPad 2 iPad Retina (Slightly confused about this version is this 1 or 2?) iPad Air What do you suggest? Major Edit: Any other brand of Tab is also welcome in suggestions!

Thanks. I was actually looking for a iPad but I think the Nexus is a good choice as well. Galaxy Note 10? :suss:

Might have been Galaxy Tab 10... bought one for the mother in law a couple of weeks ago, and she loves it...

How was it priced? Never really got any good reviews about Samsung Tab from my friends and that has made me certainly cautious.

I think it was about $350 AUD for 32gig wifi only with Bluetooth for hooking up to your mobile if required...

I was a Nokia lover until they sold them selfs to M$. Now i hate every single phone manufacturer :D Currently i am using an old Nokia phone and I think when it breaks i will stop using phones at all.(not like i use it now, its only purpose is to play my favorite music)

N73 Music Edition. Until I lost it. If I had that phone I would have never even switched to Android. I liked that one!

iPad retina is actually iPad 4 I'd simply go for the fastest processor above all else - but any of those are fine really. The retina display is nice, but non retina isn't at all bad. tepending on their technical bent, you could go with another tablet - but: iPads are standard as they come - can't go too wrong, whihle otehr brands vary so much between models and OS versions, there's a lot more tinkering required (IMHO) as getting help fron one android user isn't so easy if they've another model I love the Nexus 7, personally, but wouldn't buy one for me mum (even if she wasn't dead) If someone offers you a free Windows 8 tablet, just run, very fast indeed.

I'd agree with Damian - Nexus 7 rather than Apple. You get a lot more for the money, and it's small enough to take everywhere with you. And they don't go out of fashion every twenty minutes either... :laugh:

I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

That Apple releases a product every 10mins so every fanboi out with more money than sense has to upgrade to keep up with the cool kids. I know that you/everyone knows this, but it's so egregious that it is worth stating explicitly, and also I rarely pass up the opportunity to screed.

I forgot to mention a major advantage of going Android over iOS: you don't have to use iTunes... :thumbsup:
