Nope. No tablet. And I'll probably never get one.

I just have a laptop. Tablets are too expensive, and I hate using touchscreen keyboards, and will only use them if absolutely necessary. Might as well spend less money and get something with a keyboard.

I have a Nook HD + with Cyanogenmod 11. It runs pretty fast, I use it mostly for textbook/ebooks, and video playing. I also use it to play emulators at full speed. Only game I have for it other than emulators is DQVIII and it runs pretty smooth when I use an app to downgrade the resolution from 1080p to 720p. I don't like browsing or YouTube playback with it though, the dual-core processor doesn't seem to work well with multi-tasking and there is a lot of delay when I try to do those things (my smartphone plays YouTube and browses the internet better.)



Niet. It's not like I really need one either.

I have the Surface Pro 1, which I use for school, at school.
The wife has a Galaxy Tab 2 10 inch version which she uses for social, and games.
I want to grab a surface RT for browsing the internet, because the Surface Pro 1 battery life is crap, but perfect for the amount of time I spend at school. Eventually I will grab the i3 surface pro 3, most likely next year since the wife wants to replace her laptop soon.



Sort of. I have a Surface tablet solely for work purposes. It does work related aspects fine, but it or any other tablet make no sense to me for personal use.

I don't really need it yet. Last time I was at a store, for the sum I could have spent for it without too many doubts, 100 euros, there was only crap on offer, the decent 10" ones were all quite more expensive. Maybe after Xmas I could look for better offers...

replaced my pc with a z2 tablet a while ago because the things i used my pc for, i can easily use a tablet as well.



I bough my mom an iPad Mini 2... But I Personally Don't need one... I could only view myself using it to view videos on YouTube or streaming sports... Give me an old fashioned laptop with buttons for cheaper any day...



iPad 3. I didn't feel the need to buy a tablet, but it was a gift and I've found that it nicely fills the gap between laptop (MBP) and smartphone (iPhone).

Since all three are in the same ecosystem, my data and content is shared and synced between the three.

The iPad is primarily used for viewing content, web browsing, viewing photos, writing memos and on rare occasion for mobile games.

It's a great portable, high res screen that can store media and web browse. It's also great for showing or simply viewing video anywhere without being tethered to a large device or being restricted to a palm sized display.



iPad Air and mini, and a Tab3.. Use them for porn.. Porn is great
