7" vs 10"

[Feveredbike]

What do you prefer and why?

[Cpl Crackers]

I own a 7.7" tablet and I think it is a pretty good compromise between portablility and screen size. So if you are looking for something to carry around a lot I would say the 7" option is better. It is also easy to hold in one hand which is attractive to me.

I could probably be swayed if i wanted one primarily for home use though.

I use an iPad 2 currently (don't hate :P) and I've realized a 10" tablet is just way too big to make me want to use it over a laptop for a convenience tool.

I have an iPad 2 and a Nexus 7. The Nexus 7 is great for the train to college and college work, and the iPad is better for home use when I'm not on the PC.

I've really been thinking about getting the Nexus 7, as I use the Nexus as my main phone, so I would feel right at home :P

Why does it always have to be about size? :( I want to have something to contribute......

7" for portability, 10" for home use. 7" tablets can be used easily outdoor and they are easy to carry around with you. So choose following your preferences

Im sorry im just used to write it like that :) but ill like the posts too

[erks007]

It depends what do you use it for. I have 7" because i carry it with my almost every day. 10" would be too big for that.

I would agree with you, 7" is best for gaming and mobile use, but 10" is better for watching movies.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 as well as a Nexus 7 and on a day to day basis, I find myself only using the Nexus. This is basically due to the convenience of the size, and how I can carry it around with me easily. Furthermore, it also fits in one hand, which is a really convenient feature.

This is why I don't use my iPad anymore.

10", because I don't need the portability that a 7" tablet will give you and watching a show or reading a book on a 10" is awesome =D

I prefer 10" since I don't find the need to carry around anything but my phone on a day-to-day basis.

I've got the iPad 3 but I've tried the iPad mini (7.9") and for what I do the fullsize iPad screen is a lot easier to use. The main use for me aside from web browsing and email is using it as a remote for Soundcraft, Avid and Presonus digital consoles - the iPad mini I've found was just too small to be of real practical use whereas the full size iPad was a lot easier to use to mix on.

Just my $.02

if you had a girlfriend or your mom carrying it around get the 10", otherwise you still need to put 7" one on your bag but it's more compact, so both do the same if you're out of home, but if which one will be more comfortable to use, i prefer 10" because 7" sucks

I have a 10" tablet (HP Touchpad with Android lol) and I think I prefer the 7" form factor. I'm really just waiting for the next generation of the Nexus 7 to come out, and then I'll be getting that. In my opinion, you can hold and position the 7" so much more comfortably it's definitely worth the difference in size.

[JoshgameWasTaken]

Personally, I think somewhere around the 8.5" range is ideal and I don't see why there aren't more tablets at the size.

Aside from that owning a Nexus 7 would lead me to say 7" :P

7" is great for its portability, but it's a better choice for reading and gaming. And if you want to check your emails or the internet in your bed, it's a still great device. But if you want to use the tablet primary for browsing the internet and reading emails, typically the "home use", the 10" tablet wins here all the way. I personally prefer the 7" tablet, that's why I own the iPad mini. I use it only when I'm traveling or going to school. When I'm home, I use only my pc.

7" if you are planing to take it with you on the go.....

[mgsstar]

7" It is big enough to play games and watch things on. 10" is not as portable as a 7" so a 10" tablet should be for home use...
