The Best Android Tablet 2012
Tablet PCs are taking over.

Apple’s iPad took the market by storm, as do most Apple products, instantly multiplying the want for tablets exponentially.
But, is the Apple iPad really the best product available? Is there no higher value tablet PC available for purchase today?
Welcome to Android
Google’s Android operating system rides a wave of fanboy backed popularity much like the majority of Apple products do – but for a much different reason.
Android products are typically more “raw”. There is a much more open, hacky, and configurable feel to Android devices that seem to be lacking on the pearly white gadgets marked with unfinished apple.
Is that a good thing?
If you want full and complete control over your tablet, then yes, that is a very good thing.
Are you best fit for an Android?
The differences between the Apple and Android fan base are very telling of their respective products.
Android fans seem to be more tech literate, much more interested in customizing their products to stand out from one another; they get excited looking through the “Advanced Settings” dialogs.
iPad fans are quite the opposite. They don’t even want the “Advanced Settings” dialog to exist. Instead, they prefer a “one size fits all” approach, where everything just works out of the box, minimal tweaking and tuning is required.
