Last week I posted a review of the new 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 4. One of its main competitors is the 2nd gen Nexus 7, so I wanted to put together this comparison review outlining the similarities and advantages for each.

Review: Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (Video)
I decided it was way past time that I review one of Samsung’s tablets. I’ve reviewed all the major brands of tablets before, and a lot of non-major brands, so when Samsung released their latest line of Android tablets at the beginning of this month I picked up the 7-inch model to review. I initially […]

My favorite budget tablet last year was undoubtedly the Hisense Sero 7 Pro, which is pretty surprising given all the competition in the budget Android tablet market and the fact that Hisense had never even made any tablets before. Now Hisense is moving forward with at least one new tablet this year, called the Hisense […]
Samsung Unveils a Puzzling New Line of Android Tablets
This past week Samsung announced their latest trio of Android tablets, dubbed the Galaxy Tab4 series. The three models have varying screen sizes—7-inches, 8-inches, and 10.1-inches—but all have the exact same 16:10 aspect ratio and 1280 x 800 screen resolution. Unlike Samsung’s Pro series of high-end tablets released earlier this year with high-resolution screens, the […]
A Curious Loophole To Get a Kindle Free for 1 Year
I recently discovered an interesting loophole in Amazonland that seemingly lets you use a Kindle for a year and then return it for a full refund.
