What do you do with your tablet?

Hey. What do you do with your tablet? Do you own a tablet? Please, I have ordered a Nexus 7 2013 and I wanna know what I can use it for, and what do you use it for? What are some good functions of it? e.g. netlfix, productivity, browsing the web or maybe LinusTech?  

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

For me?  I would return it, but that's just me.

Last time I had a tablet I used it to browse Imgur, watch netflix, youtube and twitch streams.

What happened to it? "Last Time?"

 

I don't even have a tablet. The closest to a tablet i own is a note 3 which i mainly use to watch youtube videos on the go. 

A Note is like a small tablet, with additional features of calling, sms/mms, and data. 

 

For me?  I would return it, but that's just me.

I already did once, I will not make that mistake again!

I have a Nexus 7 2013 too. I usually use it for watching YouTube when I'm too lazy to go on my PC. As well as the occasional twitch stream, netflix, watching movies via plex, going on LinusTechTips.com and other sites. Overall, Media consumption like everyone else said.

How did you react when 780 Ti came out?

I use my Nexus 7 2012 mainly for browsing and watching videos. I sometimes play games on it like 99 Bricks or Hill Climb Racing.

I had the GPU 6 months before the 780 ti came out, and I didn't really care, as it has 3GB of memory, and I utilized over 5gb of the titans memory.

I broke my tablet's screen a few months back... It was a cheap ~60USD Rockchip SoC one so not too much regrets...

 

I used it for ebooks, mobile work, note-taking, and watching some stuff while traveling...

Also used it as a navigation assist when I was driving in unfamiliar territory once...

Web browsing and YouTube but when I get the Shield Tablet I will be doing heavy gaming.

School work, browse LTT in school, randomly browse the web, maybe watch YouTube videos. It's Acer Iconia W510 10" Windows 8 tablet, which is not really mine, but I can use it however I want.

 

I only use the tablet when my desktop is unavailable.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I honestly don't see much use in tablets. I have a phone and a PC. That's all I need.
