Quad-core 1.5Ghz CPU instead of a dual-core 1Ghz. Higher screen resolution on the Nexus 7. 16GB of storage vs 8GB... Android-4.2 Jellybean, as opposed to Android-4.0 Ice Cream Sandwhich (Which is a big leap forwards if you ask me!).

Still, if you're budget-constrained, then yeah the Galaxy Tab 2 is quite significantly better than any of the aforementioned el-cheapo brands

Lower screen resolution than the nexus7, slower, older OS, etc.
Why do you want to get a cheap android tablet other than the nexus 7? The nexus 7 is far better than anything else in the price range.

Both the galaxy tab2 7.0 and the other android tablet QW asked about had the same screen size.

I was marely a question about them. Still not quite sure what I will get though. All I want to do is get online and check emails.

1315115 2012-12-02 20:29:00 Hmm well that may be all you're wanting to do now, but given a powerful device that's portable and functional, you may find many more uses for it!

Have a bit of a read through this: lifehacker.com
Just saw that pop up in my G+ stream this morning :)

That may true in ways. Still unsure as to what I will get though.

Thanks for the link also. Quite a few on there to also look at.

1315117 2012-12-21 04:39:00 how about Lenovo Le PAD 7" Android2.3 1G 16G christine228821 (16957)
1315118 2012-12-21 08:41:00 For the price, you're quite probably better off with a Nexus 7. Android-4.2 Jellybean is way slicker :D Chilling_Silence (9)
