Hi! So i have a nephew who is about 1yr 4 months old, and he loves playing with my phone and my N7 tablet. Of course he does ocassionally get very emotional and sometimes is very rough with his toys so he would sometime toss my phone or tablet.
I was thinking of getting him a nice tablet he could play with and interact and just learn how to work with technology at a young age. I have looked around a bit and i saw some like the NAVI and some other really cheap looking vtec ones.
Im looking for something that is pretty tough, will last at least a year. and preferably runs android ICS+ in a child friendly manner.
I was hoping you guys (those of you with children) could give me some great recommendations.
My main three citeria are: Price ( cheaper the better ) , Toughness, and OS.

Not the best tablet for a kid that young. Get the Nabi or LeapPad.

But seriously, a Nexus 7 or Note 8 in a Seidio or Otterbox case would be safe, plus you can keep them out of all settings via root.

Brought my 4 year old an Asus memo pad for Christmas so my missus can have her s4 back. It was cheap at £69 and I've found a nice thick soft rubber case for it. :thumbup:

At what age can I give children a tablet?

Well I realized the 10inch tablet is kinda.. a overkill.. and doesn't fit my needs for portability. Im planning to sell it but i dont know how much is it worth?
Hp Touchpad 32gb
Hp custom fit Case modded with velcro flap to close cover
Hp touchstone
Skinomi Screen protector on it + a brand new one if buyer wants to apply another one
+ 4 brand new clear overstock touchpad screen protectors
Hp usb charger
The serial warranty shows its till aug 2012
how much is this worth now on the market like craigslist.
I used it for about 6 hrs mostly installing preware, tweaks, andriod, 3 movies.
Thank you
$230+ for the device. $30 for the touchstone.
i think best way to sell it is to put it on the auction on ebay.....u will easily get the good price...but i agree with the above poster...its going anywhere between 230-300.....
sell it before those cheap ICS tablets comes out...
Above sounds about right. If you wouldn't mind, I'd be interested in seeing how you modded the case.
um ok

I like my touchpad but that new transformer looks very appealing. You could get a big upgrade pretty much for free.

How? Even $300 is only half way there. Plus they are having serious range issues due to the casing with WIFI and GPS. That and Asus has already leaked that they are releasing a newer version in a few months. I would wait for that.
The new 7 inch transformer prime is 250. HD screen, tegra 3. I don't know when it comes out though.

Thanks, that looks really clean. I've been wanting to do something like this myself but wasn't sure what the best way to arrange everything was. I can't understand why HP didn't just put $0.25 worth of velcro or a magnet on this thing themselves.
Good luck selling your TP. I have a Nook Color with CM7 and love the form factor. It feels a lot more portable than just 3" smaller because it also has a 16x9 aspect ratio vs 4x3. The performance probably doesn't measure up to the TP or other tablets you can get now, but I still love it with CM7 and overclocked to 1200mhz. You can find refurb's for as low as $120 or so from time to time, and that will probably keep dropping.
I have a Google official case that's coming in soon, but I'm pretty sure I'm not going to use that as my default case. It's pretty disappointing that there's no stand.
I've been driving myself crazy researching cases for the N7 and have narrowed my options down to four. One of my rules with purchasing cases/folios are that they CAN'T cover the bezel.
Here's what I'm looking at:
Poetic Hardbook- $9.95
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008IEGS9W/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1342599330&sr=8-1
Poetic Tribook- $7.95
http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-TriBook-Automatically-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B008IEGSWO/ref=pd_ybh_12
CaseCrown Ace Flip Case- $20.21
http://www.amazon.com/CaseCrown-Google-Built-magnet-feature/dp/B008K9TRM0/ref=pd_ybh_8
iBlason Slim Folio- $16.95
http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Sleep-Google-Tablet-Orange/dp/B008H3PAP2
Belkin Bi- Fold Case- $37.55 ( Apparently this works really well w/ N7 )
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Bi-Fold-Stand-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B007XDFO7Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1342647766&sr=1-1&keywords=belkin+bifold+folio
Google Nexus 7 Dock- $32.98
http://www.gadgets4geeks.com.au/product/google_nexus_7_dock
Unfortunately these aren't available right now, but they all look like REALLY good cases. I haven't ordered any of these yet, but I would like to have all of them ( that's not an option ) .
If any of you are going to order one of these, please post below because I'd like some input. Or if you find other cases/ folios that are worthy of a purchase, let me know and I'll update this post.

i'm guessing that's a stock photo, because they are being manufactured right now and they just used it to show you an idea of how it will look....but that's just my guess....
I read the fire version of the casecrown ace flip is exactly the same, other than not being smart. I have one coming tomorrow, cost me $8.00. If it's good i might get the smart version, or i'll just put a magnet on it.

If Marware makes a similar case for the Nexus 7, I'm all in!!!
The phone was still 4 inches but it looked slightly wider, also the glass appeared to be bending on the edges like our nexus 4 does. The front facing camera was also a little bigger. The back was just one straight color it didn't have that two different material thing going on. And it was running ios7. The apple logo in the back was covered up but you can see the fcc and serial numbers etc. He didn't let me touch it or take pictures. Keep in mind I could have been super trolled with a Chinese knock off but it looked pretty legit.

Sorry but that is BS. If they release the 5S in the fall, it will be the exact same dimensions of the 5. Otherwise none of the accessories will work. And like past releases, no one is allowed to carry a prototype device without it being in a case that makes it completely indistinguishable from the previous version. Plus, this is a Nexus 4 forum, not a iPhone forum.
inb4 a bunch of "This is a forum about the Nexus 4! Quit posting about other phones!" posts, then eventual closing of this thread
That said, This is a forum about the Nexus 4! Quit posting about other phones!

Don't understand the big deal bozzykid...there's no need to cry or be rude simply because he posted this. If you see this thread and don't want to talk about the iPhone I don't see why you need to comment in the first place.

hi,
just need some opinions. I have a sony gift card worth $824, just not sure waht to do with it, either spend it at the sony store or sell it for around $700. Right now, I don't have a TV or a PS4, not sure if I want it. But I did see the KDL-R550A 50" TV for $949 +tax. I would of course have to throw in another $200 to get it. But just wondering what y'all would do in my case?
Thanks!

Without a tv, what are your interests? If you're into music, Sony makes some very respectable earphones and music players.
I'd be inclined to get a tv if I didn't have one, but if you have no need for one, perhaps the $ should go elsewhere.

Tablet Z + Nexus 4! Probably the best device pair you can get for those money, plus you'll have some left for accessories and several paid apps from Play Market
Get the TV. Or get a laptop.
