Nexus 7 was the first real contender as an iPad beater - but I reckon the iPad Mini is too little product for too much money...
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
It's a cracking device at bargain money so this isn't shocking.

We have a Nexus 7. Its just brilliant. Fast easy, to use, and good battery life.
Cool, the board can go out for a slap meal at McDonaldsThe Taiwanese tech company posted profits of $229 for Q3 2012
Or is there perhaps an M missing there?

Nah, it's an adjusted figure accounting for "damages" awarded to Apple by a US court - after all, the Nexus 7 is successful so I'm assuming that Apple will sue Asus for copying an iPad Mini prototype.Originally Posted by scaryjim

Joking aside, it's heartening to see the Nexus 7 doing well - haven't got one myself (although if I can find an 8GB for <£150 then I'll dive in).
And not forgetting Asus' own Transformer tablets - it would be nice to hear how they're selling. I see the TF300 "budget" model in a lot of shops so I'm going to assume that it's doing okay sales-wise.At the other end of the market we have more traditional larger tablets like the 10-inch iPad, Google Nexus 10 (made by Samsung) and Microsoft Surface.
Career status: still enjoying my new career in DevOps, but it's keeping me busy...
ASUS tablets are great, ive got the infinity which is the best tablet about, much better than the ipad 4
...Nexus 10 disagrees

I do like my Nexus 7, despite its low build quality its "robust enough" and you don't cry when you scratch it or get DEET on it because its so cheap.
I would however like it thinner, lighter and with more battery life, however most of my complaints about the latter are due to the software I run on it.
Can't see the sales slowing any time soon, even with the Kindle competition.

@Crossy, the 16gb n7 is £160 at richer sounds if you create a vip account and use the free £10 voucher, think thats close enough for you?
It's £159 on Google Play, without voucher@Crossy, the 16gb n7 is £160 at richer sounds if you create a vip account and use the free £10 voucher, think thats close enough for you?
Don't you mean a slap-up meal?? Now I have a picture in my head of Taiwanese executives in suits slapping each other with burger patties!!Cool, the board can go out for a slap meal at McDonalds

It's such a steal at that price, not surprised it's done so well. Nexus 10 soon with it's super high density display, if they go in cheap enough again (I think they've said $400), they'll make a serious dent in the tablet marketshare.
Does it attract bugs? *Budamchisssh*
