Smile iPad Air or Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014)


Which is better?
I want something which can do what I can do in Linux desktop. Word processing etc.

Define better!

I myself wouldn't own another Apple product after my iPod, but I love my Galaxy S2 and my Samsung laptop so I would buy a Galaxy Note in preference to an iPad anyday.

Until the LQ hierarchy do something about him I'll respond to reasonable questions.

What review? Let's not play games here, you asked a question and I gave you my opinion. You come back and say "some review" and then not give us what review, when it was done, why they think this, or any piece of reasonable information at all.

What do you think and why do you think it? what do you base these thoughts on? It's time for you to start thinking for yourself.

Yeah, those two are most popular. According to many reviews, however, the Trent N760 is by far better then the other two.

iPad got faster CPU, and the Apps are more to choose from.
More stylish design, lighter.
But I still don't know which one to choose?

I put Linux on an original iPhone but only because others love hacking and cracking with\at (and if you update it or apps they stop working so to make you buy the new phone ) the other has Linux already on so it boils down to service provider verizon for example locks the OS for control plus probably does the same $hit as mapple!

One thing is better with iPad, its apps are cheaper than Android.
Android apps are very expensive.
I am talking about the non-free apps.
