Apple iPad Mini vs Nexus 7 vs Kindle Fire HD vs Galaxy Tab
Since,the Apple iPad Mini has released so many readers have asked me which tablet to buy out of iPad mini,Google Nexus 7,Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD.So,we thought of comparing all the four against each other.
So,we compared all the tablets under few sections.
| Specs | iPad mini Wi-Fi | Nexus 7 | Galaxy Tab 7.7 | Kindle Fire HD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Processor | Apple A5 (dual-core) | Nvidia Tegra 3 (quad-core) | Samsung Exynos 4210 (dual-core) | TI OMAP 4470 (dual-core) |
| Operating system | iOS 6 | Android 4.1 Jelly Bean | Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (with update) | Custom Android |
| Storage | 16/32/64GB onboard storage, non-expandable | 8/16GB onboard storage, non-expandable | 16GB onboard storage, expandable via a microSD slot | 16/32GB onboard storage, non-expandable |
| RAM | TBC | 1GB | 1GB | 1GB |
| Camera | 5-megapixel iSight camera, 1.2-megapixel FaceTime camera | 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera | 3.2-megapixel rear camera, 2-megapixel front-facing camera | 720p front-facing camera |

| Dimensions | 200 x 134.7 x 7.2mm | 198.5 x 120 x 10.5mm | 196.7 x 133 x 7.9mm | 193 x 137.2 x 10.2mm |
| Weight | 308g | 340g | 340g | 567g |
| Price | US$329 (16GB), US$429 (32GB), US$529 (64GB) | US$199 (8GB), US$249 (32GB) | S$598 (US$490) | US$199 (16GB), US$249 (32GB) |
After looking at the specifications,we think that Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle fire HD are the best options as they have high-resolution HD screens.Since,most people buy tablets to read news or for office work,so we think that this is the best choice as text ,images and video will appear sharper.Also,both the nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD are low in budget which gives them edge over others.
The most appreciated tablet in recent time is Google Nexus 7 since it works on Android Jelly Bean.People are more interested in buying android devices than any other devices.
But, we cannot neglect the Kindle fire HD which is termed as the best tablet.Also,the release of Kindle Fire HD has shaken the market standings of Apple.
Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 is the most expensive tablets.
