Which tablet to get, Apple or Samsung ?
I don't want this to turn into an Android v Apple debate with the various fanboys playing bitching tennis.
I'm after getting a tablet, i've no experience with these, what currently out there is the best option, a Samsung or an Apple ?

If you want a tablet get an iPad, if you want a hobby get an Android.
Pay cash upfront with Apple or pay with your time fecking about with rom this, side load that on Android.
I keep an Android device because it's somewhat fun keeping it running, Apple devices are boringly stable.
Actually bit of a lie, looking for an Android device right now fecked the last one.

I have an iPad mrs has the Samsung she can download films etc and watch them while staying at hospital with the kids which is a defo plus where as my iPad is good enough for YouTube eBay and of course scooby net which I'm happy with
The iPad is much less prone to bugs where as Samsung needs one of them virus protection thingies both good on there own ways up to you which one suits you better end of the day
Just my 20p's worth

I was surprised when I recently went into one of those 2nd / cash it in shops to see what my sons WI was worth to trade it in, they had older Ipads and other tablets, Ipad in particular from £60 upwards dependant on model, so if you only want one for basic stuff like surfing places like this fb, net etc, worth a look instead of shelling out £300 on a new one.
WI was worth about 2p.

Easy! iMac over a laptop/pc. I've Had my iMac for 3yrs, no issues whatsoever. Got bored of continuously having to use the virus checker because my laptops/pc's kept picking up viruses. Would never buy a pc again. Went through more pc's over 3yrs than what I'll ever have with my iMac.

Never bothered with anti virus since windows 10, But then I don't source dodgy material
I just question the point shelling out that much on a tablet which isn't very handy ( what tablets are for) over a better specced ultrabook

I'm not brainwashed, I just prefer mac's. My wife has it on everyday because she's a teacher and uses it to prepare lessons. Like I said! No issues whatsoever.

I was just getting in before the true haters arrived. I worked for 12 years in Antivirus software, as soon as OSX came out I stopped using Windows machines at home and advise all friends and relatives to do the same, I'm no longer tech support, when I visit I'm not immediately sat in front of the computer to fix it and that's worth a few quid extra.

I think it's looking like an Apple ipad of some kind, possibly a Pro.

Do it @thejoshuatree. I agree with people when they say that the iPhones are lagging behind! But I only use mine for texting/phone calls/itunes and internet. Sim only @ £25 a month! Job done
