News (compiled: Jinxin) technology blog AppAdvice editor Bryan M. Wolfe is a fruit powder, but he recently bought a Android tablet, the following is his story:

The my 6 year old daughter very much like to play with my iPad. Unfortunately, my work schedule often conflicts with her playtime, so I decided to give her another to buy a Tablet PC.

the iPad

The mini is a very good device, but to spend $ 329 (about 2021 yuan) to buy toys for her daughter or makes me feel heartache. After all, neither major festivals, nor is her birthday. And buy the first generation of iPad mini is not very cost-effective, the Earth people know that Apple will soon launch a new model, then the first generation of iPad mini will be dropped.

the

The last, last weekend, I bought a Barnes & Noble’s Nook HD.

the

I know that many people see here are silent – Barnes & Noble Tablet PC is not a very popular device, but also some rumors that Barnes & Noble intention to withdraw from the tablet computer business, because the Nook the sales situation is disappointing. However, I was very happy to buy a tablet.

one of the main reasons the

I select the Nook HD rather than the Kindle Fire, Barnes & Noble’s decision last week introduced the Google Play application of store, the Nook users can choose their own Google Play more than 700,000 applications Like the download. And the use of the Nook, my daughter can still read Kindle books.

the

The addition, Barnes & Noble’s Nook Mother’s Day promotions also my very heart: 8GB of Nook HD only $ 149 (about 915 yuan), 9 inches HD + 16GB Nook just 179 U.S. dollars (about 1099 yuan). Add another $ 10, you can buy a 16GB microSD card, so I only spent a total of U.S. $ 159 (about 977 yuan) to buy a 32GB Tablet PC. As an auxiliary device, which is really a bargain!

to meet my needs,

The Nook HD achieve this objective on the line. It can with the iPad mini than you? Absolutely not, but I only spent $ 159, it is still very worth the price. Barnes & Noble may soon give up the Nook business, but can run, but you can not hide, they would not suddenly disappear Google Play Store.

the

The topic of this article not to small brand flat compared with the best tablet. I fully admit Nook HD not as good as the iPad, I just want to say: Even if Apple introduced the iPad mini, it also did not grasp the low-cost flat-panel market.

after the

I hope that Apple introduced the second generation of iPad mini, continue to sell the first-generation iPad mini, and its price down to $ 200. Of course, this will reduce the profit margins of Apple, but the new iPad mini machine owners will spend money on the App Store, rather than spent on Google Play or Amazon AppStore.

the

The short, in order to allow their children to be happier, even my fruit powder are a bit reluctant to go to the Android ecosystem go spend money.
