hahaha... bro if you have that phobia, you sure you should be asking for my opinion?
since you ask i shall try my best to answer.
your friend is not wrong, at least what i know about the movie part, is that iPad requires to convert in order to play? you have to ask iPad owners about this. where android you can just download and play. both OS have their own strength. i heard ioS have more games too.
currently the Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 is retailing around rm1,600. it does not have sPen. 3GB Ram.
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_tab_s2_8_0-7439.phpdepending on budget brother,
if i have less than 1K, i go for teclast X98 Plus as the 9.7 inch screen with 9.7 inches (1536 x 2048) for movies, tv series, anime, etc. the CPU Intel Atom X5-Z8300, 64 GB, 4 GB RAM will for sure capable smooth running.
if i can fork out more, the galaxy Tab S2 8.0 or S2 9.7 are very good choices. and i really love how the Tab S2 looks, both variant of 8.0 and 9.7 inch screen are beautiful.
here are some CPU score:
Rank 493 : Snapdragon 652 (Galaxy Tab S2) - around rm1,600
Rank 563 : Exynos 5433 Octa (Galaxy Tab S2) - around rm1,900
Rank 570 : Intel X5-Z8300 (Teclast X98 Plus) - around rm1,000

Actually I do not mind to top up someone if iPad Air 2 64GB or Samsung S2 8.0 is really worth to buy.
I was intended to buy iPad Air2 64gb but my friend discouraged me to buy as iOS has many restriction.
May I know what is the price of S2 8.0 now? Does it have a S pen? What about the memory? I do not need cellular as I already have an android phone.
For Teclast X98 plus, windows os is not necessary for me since I already have a laptop. But it will be a bonus for me to have that to easier my work and presentation.
In ur opinion, among Samsung S2 8.0, iPad Air2 64gb and Teclast X98 Plus, which is the most worth to buy? Or else do you have other recommendation? I have allodoxaphobia ><
