Sorry, i really noob in gadgets. This custom rom thingy what is the disadvantage? void warranty? I am sure it does have some disadvantage.

Well, not really call it an disadvantage, you should look at the Good side and the Down side of the Custom Rom and conclude it yourself. Custom Rom have community support for update and more! Custom feature and unlimited potential.

As for the warranty part, of course will void if you send in with unlocked/root/custom rom devices, also depend on which manufacturer their policy. If anything really go wrong, and you require send to warranty purpose, just flash back to stock rom + unroot + lock it back, as simple as that.

So if you are user like freedom and customization, go for devices with community support like Nexus line product. Or you are just normal user that, "oh well, I dont care, I just take notes/watch youtube/browse facebook/surf internet casual use. Any device will suit you.

Hi..

I'm looking for a 8" tablet from samsung between galaxy tab 3 8" and note 2 8" . Which one is better? I have a acer a500 currently and ipad but finding that android gives more flexibility. my acer sadly got no 3g. so can't use it to go online outside. my purpose is mainly for surfing, reading online materials, ebooks and utilize to take notes and some light games. battery lasting is important at least for a day. other brands recommendation are welcome. tq

Either Galaxy Note 8.0 or Nexus 7 2013.

1. Brand. No specific choice, prefer something mainstream so that have lots of custom mod, roms, kernels etc.
2. Budget. Max RM700 be it new or good condition 2nd hand.
3. Specs. With data(3G or LTE), can perform the below functions without hang or lag.
4. What you need in the tablet. Teamviewer, iDisplay etc, websurfing, video watching, no emphasis on gaming.

Maybe Nexus 7 3G (2012 version) is the best choice? hmm.gif

Went to checkout the HD7 and hesitated to get it cuz felt 7inch still relatively small to me(especially if I plan to use it as productivity tool for work as well).  sweat.gif
Guess I should switch my attention to 10 inches. Maybe I should wait the Nexus 10 price to drop even further then get it  hmm.gif

I afraid that if you wait further no more old stock sales once Nexus 10 (gen 2) come out, your hand itch again to buy new tech. brows.gif

Asus Fonepad.

Try to stick with better well known models. Quality + warranty issues are you concerns.

I've had my fair share of chinese tablets, and tbh, the performance is good, but service/warranty leaves much to be desired.[cool.gif

Qualcomm, nVidia would be a good bet. Even Exynos isnt that great.

I'm interested in either the Memo Pad 8 or the Dell Venue 8

Advantage of the Asus
- Asus build quality
- Source code will come
- relatively powerful chipset (rockhip RK3188 yo)

Advantage of the Dell
- Warranty
- 2GB RAM
- Better build (supposedly)

Neither has any news of upgrading beyong 4.2.2 hmm.gif

Not so sure about the Dell warranty support for tablet. hmm.gif Wait and see how its comes... I more excited for Google Nexus 10 2 brows.gif brows.gif
