I have an iPhone 4 and the new MacBook Pro. Im getting the new iPhone whenever it comes out ( i heard this November or October ) . Well anyways I was wondering wether i should get the iPad because it will be in sync with my macbook and iPhone or should i get the Android tablet. and if i get the android tablet, which one should i get. Money is not an issue so I'm willing to pay for anything. But Im only 15 so i don't want to blow all my money on a tablet . So i would like it to be under $400. but i know the iPad cost $500 . so thats an exception. but i would also be willing to buy an android tablet for $500 or cheaper.i also want something with a big screen to watch movies, play games surf the web and listen to a lot of music. Ps I'm not trying to sound like a douche bag but i have a lot of money i never use so i kinda wanted to buy something like this. so if u think i don't need it be honest. Because i don't wanna waste my money for no reason. Thank You!

I can sugest you two choices ..... new android 4.0 tablets now available. Those tablet are the "iPad killers"!



- Cube U9GT2 (16GB) ~249$



- ONDA vi40 Elite (16GB) ~289$



Both the Onda VI40 Android 4.0 IPS Capacitive tablet PC and the Cube U9T2 ICS have very similar specifications and features. First is the 9.7" Capacitive multi-touch IPS screen.



Onda made its name way back in 2008 when it released a 4.3" touch screen mp4 player that please called an iPod Touch wannabe or alternative. This model did well, but the marketing and product development of the company went astray.



This is why I was both suprised and happy to be reviewing first 9.7" Android 4.0 tablet PC by Onda, the VI40 Elite Edition Tablet PC. Boasting 9.7-inch 1024 x 768 capacitive multi-touch IPS display it seems to be 5-point touch. It adopts the fastest yet 1.5GHz ARM Cortex-A10 processor with Mali-400 GPU (graphics processor).



The onda VI40 Elite tablet also packs dual cameras, a 1.3 Mega Pixel front-facing camera and a 5.0M pixel rear-facing camera. More the VI40 supports 2160p Super HD video playback.



It has a 6500mAh battery giving you around 4.5 to 5 hours of internet surfing time.



The Cube U9GT2 also has a 9.7" IPS screen but with a more responsive 10-point multi touch screen. The processor is not as fast but will do the job clocking in at 1.2GHz on a Rockchip RK2918 CPU.



In addition to a better screen, the Cube Android 4.0 Tablet also has 16gb of built-in memory compared to Onda's 8gb. The Cube tablet also has larger 8000mah battery for 6 hours of internet surfing or "10 hours music, 4 hours video, 5 hours wifi."



The Cube doesn't have a 5mp camera but it does have dual 2 mega pixel cameras for quality photos and video from front and back.





The Onda VI40 Elite may prove to rule supreme as today's android tablet forum enthusiasts like the cheapest deal, even if the battery only gets an hour less usage from a full charge.



Both have microSD card slots so one could buy a memory card to make up for the 8gb of memory the Onda so dearly misses.



Last thought, the Apple iPad 2 should be wetting its pants now. Both of these tablets are more powerful and have just as responsive capacitive screens. Not to mention extra goodies like dual cameras and open source Ice Cream Sandwich. Yum!

Did you will have an iPad 1? If that is so there may be not a lot potential of upgrading rather then to be up to the moment with technology. If now not then yeah, go ahead...But i'd pay a little bit additional and get the wifi + 3G model, it might make it extra invaluable.

According to your story, my opinions is you rather buy a new iPad than android tablet because You already have iPhone and MacBook Pro which is has the same Operating System. The second is Apple have more apps than android tablet. The third, iPad still more popular than android tablet.



Hope my opinion help you decide which one you want to buy. thanks

to me it seems like you really want an IPAD so just get it. it's worth it, my mom loves it i got her one. it's compatible with all your gadgets and you might as well blow it on something that'll last and give you the most for your money. don't think so hard really.
