using nexus from 2 yrs bro,dont want a n7 2013 coz its serious weaker then tegra note ,see the benchmarks

and is it WORTH it to pay 36 thousand for a 18k tablet?atleast if its nvidia shield should i expect it to be on for 2 years minimum?
and tergra note n shield both are getting the android L upgrade it makes it more steeper.

the price is the real killer here tegra note is 70%less priced :facepalm:

cant still decide

nexus 7 is 17k for the 32gb wifi model not 36k

about nvidia cpus- they certainly are better on paper and thanks to the nvidia shield they support alot of console ports like portal 2 etc but nvidia cpus dont support custom roms etc and have alot of compatibility issues
snapdragon cpus are best overall even if they arent as powerful,they are powerful enough and support custom roms etc easily and there are always alternatives
you are better off with your nexus 7 2012 unless you have an nvidia gpu in your pc and want to stream games etc-then nvidia shield makes sense and will be a nice addition
xolo tegra note isnt worth it because alot of people have complained of the battery going bad fast etc
i wouldnt rely on xolo to really release updates the way nexus gets
id expect more updates from nvidia shield though theres a small chance nvidia shield may get discontinued because it hasnt gained much popularity(rumour)

i saw 2013 nexus 7 and its fairly great

now atleast split between shield and nexus 7

K

Next nexus is also tegra based!

If you have the money to spend,an nvidia GPU along with a good router, then nothing comes close to the awesomeness of game streaming on the shield. Else it is not worth 35k, my advice is to wait for the shield tablet to be released in India and also wait for the next Nexus tablet(if there will be any).

thats a rumour but if thats true,it could change my earlier statement(in the future) because nexus is what defines androids standards etc

I Akready have a gtx 650ti boost and a 3k router.

Next nexus is surely having a 64bit processor.

64bit will be while before becoming a standard,maybe 2-3 years
