iPad mini gives Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD quality display

In fact, in the last days of the screen is not as impressive in the tablet iPad mini did not say just lazy, but it was taken for comparison, all Retina-display in the "big" iPad third and fourth generation , that, you are not quite right. DisplayMate Technologies experts in this regard received more correctly, comparing screen iPad mini with a display of its direct competitors, which is about the same "weight category", namely 7-inch tablet Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD.

In short, the experts acknowledged the touch screen iPad mini decent, but not great, which is somewhat contrary to the practice of recent years Apple equip its beautiful touchscreen portable devices (for example, Retina-displays in the iPhone and the same iPad). Moreover, a number of parameters gives iPad mini Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HD. For example, the resolution 7.9-inch screen iPad mini is 1024 x 768, which gives a density of pixels at 163ppi vs 216ppi display in the competition.

Plays iPad mini display and on such important indicators as the reflection coefficient, which had "unexpectedly high." As a result, it represents a 53 percent increase compared to the ambient light with a screen in the Google Nexus 7 and 41 per cent as compared to Amazon Kindle Fire HD. But the coverage of the color space of the display iPad mini, by contrast, is much smaller than the competition. It is hoped that Apple would take into account all of this criticism and equip the second generation of its compact tablet a decent display (which may already be in development).

Google itself smartphones and tablets does not, but regularly choose any of the manufacturers, and with it created a master device - an example for others. So perfect 7-inch Android tablet on the platform according to the owner was Nexus 7, immediately struck many heavily reduced functionality. Let's see what the sample and whether to focus on the rest of it.

Google before periodically forced some of the manufacturers do him Nexus, but first - even after the release of Android 3.0 - it was just smartphones. Thus, Nexus 7 was the first "gugloplanshetom." Performer was the company ASUS, to which the device is almost nothing.

Appearance

The tablet is designed minimalistic, but interesting. Google Nexus 7 stands out among the hundreds of faceless models. ASUS have good designers and they were able, using past achievements, to create a tablet with expressive appearance, and there were no direct references to any of your own devices.

On the front panel of the display you can see the front camera eye. Neither the hardware nor the touch buttons below the screen there, Google preaches transition to the control screen.

At the right end of the tablet designers have placed the power button and volume rocker, while on the left we see a contact to connect, for example, with the car, "cradle".

The top end is devoid of elements, and handed down to the lower interface connector micro-USB and audio output of 3.5 mm.

Rear of the unit is dotted with shallow grid points-dimples. Characteristically, the logo «nexus» is several times greater than ASUS - after ruler lives, and artists are changing. Here we see the bottom slot of the speaker.

We would also like to dwell on how the tablet is in the hand, despite the smooth edges and rounded corners, covering the back of the device does not slip even in wet hands. In addition, it is absolutely not the brand.

Findings

Nexus 7 - a quality tablet with a powerful filling the screen, good build and materials at a reasonable price for these qualities. If you have clearly decided that, abandoning the front camera and 3G, you have nothing to lose if you only like A-brand products, if you want to always use the latest version of the OS, this tablet - definitely your choice. Although, in my opinion, to the ideal Android-solutions.
