hello!!!!

i need a tablet under 15k.i will use the tablet mainly for surfing internet ,watching hd videos(on youtube as well),listening to music and gaming.i have shortlisted some tablets like nexus 7,samsung galaxy tab 2(dont know if its under my budget),spice stellar mi-1010.i like mi-1010 but low pixel density and lack of accessory availability is stoping me.the same case is with the tab 2 (low pixel density).and if you ask me about the nexus 7,i like it very much,but its not available under my budget that is 15k in india and plus it doesn't support internet dongle and it is also not having a sim card slot.but if u can tell where it is available under 15k in india or how can i import the nexus 7 from abroad it would be great.please tell me is the stelar mi-1010 having enough pixel density or how much pixel density is enough to enjoy hd content?thanks.

i own spice mi1010. its awesome. totally worth the money. keep in mind spice is 10" while nexus & tab2 are 7". Spice has got IPS HD display. PPI u can compare with data from net. Watching HD movies on it is fun with high and clear sounding speaker. gaming is crisp and lagfree. MI1010 benchmarks are very high. Havn't yet seen any lag or crash.

A. Asus Google Nexus 7 ASUS-1B32 32GB Tablet - Quad-core Tegra 3 Processor | eBay Slap a 7.5% coupon on this, 17.5k, best bet, BUT no warranty.
OR
B. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 P3110 - Samsung: Flipkart.com -Eyes closed.

No, if you have a note II, go straight for a 9"+ tablet, if you want, 7" is not worth investing, carrying two 5"+ devices will be a pain.

Spice? Are you kidding me? No and hell no, STAY AWAY FROM INDIAN BRANDS, like micromax, spice etc, they sell cheap Chinese rebrands.

Nah........... Not even HCL....... I was gifted an HCL ME Y2 tablet. Initially, I was excited to get my hands on my first 5"+ device, but it died down quickly. The tablet hangs probably 4 to 6 times every day..........

Yeah, they couldnt help, as the problem was random, and couldnt be replicated before them............. And as I searched on Google, its a common problem many are facing with no fix
