Help With Choosing A New Tablet.

[yogi6994]

Hello people here at Toms Hardware,
I currently own an Ipad 2 but I'm wondering if there might be something better out there, I'm looking for something that i can use when i go on my pc repair calls, making invoices and estimates and what-not... I'm looking for something a little more portable than my current Ipad, price wise i have $300.
i want something that will last me for a while and that i can use everyday, any input is highly appreciated!
if you need any more info, don't hesitate to ask.
again thanks to everybody in this wonderful community.

Are you reliant on Apple App Store to do your business? Android might have equivalents to what you're using, but may not be as functional as Apple's offerings.

If you want portable it's either the iPad mini or the Nexus 7 for me.

It does not need to be an apple device, im just looking for something useful and that will help me be more productive.
Its hard carrying a laptop to all my house calls just to write an estimate lol.
What do you think about the galaxy tab?

The Galaxy line is pretty good (I have a Galaxy S3), but I much prefer the pure Android experience you get with the Nexus 7. The N7 runs far more quickly and smoothly.
