Hey guys I'm thinking of getting an Android or Windows tablet in the next month. I currently have a IPad but I have give it back or buy it later because I'm renting it. My IPad is ok but it's restrictive but it's easy to use. The things I want do with my tablet are filming,taking photos,typing,downloading music,video editing,general browsing and emulator app. I wondering if can send or link the stuff in my IPad to a different tablet brand. What models or brands would be a good look?
Thanks

Price range?
Nexus 7 is great and it's cheap since it's a few years old. Better than most that's new tbh. I've been messing around with a kindle as my plex/porn/reading/casper/email tablet since I keep dropping things. Works decent enough. Although I wouldn't use it to take pictures. Screen is pretty garbage, too, although you don't notice a difference indoors imo.

Just buy a Samsung Tab Pro or a Surface if you want a Windows Tablet. With a Surface there is a i5 option which would help with what you want.

But if youre buying one checked out the 2013 version. After all these years works great. Who said Asus couldn't do a good tablet.

I think I am gonna get a cheap camcorder to take video. I looked at Android tablets and the Lenova Tab 2 was rated high.

To me, I wouldn't get a Windows Phone because they don't have as much app variety as Google Play store and the Apple store
Since you said you had a Samsung 3, it's best to skip 1 generation to get more out of your features. My sis has the Samsung 5, which has a bigger battery than the 4 from the reviews I've read with her. It's also more powerful of course, so I'd go with the Samsung 5.
I don't know much about the iphone 4/5, but if you're sick with Samsung and/or Android, then go with Apple.

Yeah, lack of apps sucks for Windows mobile. I thought about getting a Windows 10 tablet but noticed they don't have Google Drive for Windows tab/phone. That's rather lame when Drive is on iOs at the Apple App Store.

Best stock keyboard, great camera on Lumia. But I wouldn't recommend it because of the lack of apps. Instead of getting a Samsung have you checked a Nexus 5p? They're cheap for what the hardware they have.

Microsoft should have called it 365.25. Now I know it won't be functional one day out of the four years.

nowadays theres so many choices you almost need to work backwards.. figure out which apps you'll need, which are the best etc etc etc then figure out which OS supports/works with those apps the best
at my place we use both Windows and OS X on the computers, tablets and or mobile is IOS.. IOS for the phones and tablets mainly because it integrates better with the computers... apple has a better cross platform usability than Windows does

Lol...privacy. Does that even exist anymore? If you want privacy then don't use the web.
