I will attempt to take all of the confusing choices with tablets and boil it down to a few minutes of which ones to buy. It is getting dizzy trying to follow the latest tablets which just came out. But, I tech support master of the universe will try to make sense of it. Okay, seriously, let’s get to the top tablet list to check out for your holiday shopping list.
- Nook HD – For $199, it is the sharpest display on either 7 or 9 inches. Create separate profiles for your reading pleasure. Get quick access to Barnes and Noble’s books and mags.
- Surface – Microsoft support‘s new “it” tablet runs a full Windows 8 and has a keyboard. Steep at $499, but doubles as a laptop with its keyboard.
- Nexus 10 – A big 10-inch screen, this $399 model has a sharper display than the iPad 4 and also may have multiple profiles.
- Kindle Fire HD – Like Amazon books, apps, music, and movies? Then go with the $199 7-inch model or more expensive 8.9-inch model.
- iPad mini – At $329, this 7.9-inch screen should be in the conversation of your tablet purchase as nothing beats the apps in the Apple store.
- Nexus 7 – Just $199 and runs Android’s Jelly Bean operating system. Best value at this screen size.
- iPad 4 – Yes, it’s $499, and yes it’s retina display that offers the highest resolution display.
