The Nexus 7 is definitely the best bang for the buck. Maybe try to fix the problems you're having? Aemon Send a noteboard - 15/11/2013 06:40:01 AM

On brightness: supposedly, there are apps that can reduce brightness far below the normal minimum. I've not used them, but they have good reviews. Try something like this: Screen Filter

On battery life: When browsing the web on wifi, my Nexus 7 gets about 1 hour per 7% battery, which seems excellent to me. Is yours comparable? If not, try installing a battery statistics app to get details on what's draining your juice. Common culprits are bad network connections (wifi or cell data), apps that do a lot of syncing to the cloud, and apps that constantly wake up to check on something.

Can't you adjust the screen brightness? Sareitha Sedai - 14/11/2013 03:18:10 PM 572 Views
The minimum brightness on Nexus is much higher than the min on iPad Aeryn - 14/11/2013 05:23:15 PM 587 Views
Oh. That's no good. The "night" setting might just be the app I'm using, but others might have it. *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 14/11/2013 10:25:56 PM 267 Views

As I understand it, the Kindle Fire is a normal tablet - no Kindle-like eyestrain-less screen Legolas - 14/11/2013 09:22:15 PM 586 Views
Duolingo is no-go for me. Aeryn - 14/11/2013 09:59:14 PM 623 Views
True, that is annoying about it. Legolas - 14/11/2013 10:50:24 PM 548 Views
A quick correction: 8 inch is a very popular tablet size these days. Aemon - 15/11/2013 06:28:11 AM 839 Views

I've had the Nexus 7 for a while, and find it difficult to fault. Nebhead - 15/11/2013 09:45:55 AM 574 Views
I've had it on standby with minimal use for 1 days, and the battery is 1/2 gone. Aeryn - 15/11/2013 06:36:51 PM 669 Views
