Wanted to let you folks know of something I found:::::
Back in February 2013.. There was discussion about tables - both iPads and Androids. I always recommend iPads. But I had also stated I was thoroughly impressed with the Google Nexus 7 (32GB RAM). The 16GB model appears to be the same exact device except with less memory. Today, I purchased a Hisense Sero Pro 7. >From what I was told, Hisense makes TV's. and they use to be known as Zenith. They have a Walmart exclusive table called the Sero 7. It's available as "Lite" or "Pro". I bought the Pro model. Black box. Lite is the white box. Online. the website says Pro is not available. but in the store plenty were there. Based on a quick test. nothing at rocket science level. The Hisense was comparable to the Nexus. and even had a couple extra features like an HDMI out and 2 cameras. If you compare the cost $149 to $249. Hisense might be a viable competitor to Nexus. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 2 DEVICES RAM: Nexus 7: 32 GB ----- Sero Pro 7: 16GB (this is the largest they currently have) --- the 16GB Nexus 7 is $199. so the Hisense is $50 less if comparing ram. Screen: Nexus 7: 1200x800 IPS ----- Sero Pro 7: 1280x800 IPS Camera: Nexus 7: Front 1.2MP, Rear: None ---- Sero Pro 7: Front 2MP, Rear: 5MP with Flash --- the camera for the Hisense is located in a slightly odd place though SD Slot: Next 7: None ----- Sero Pro 7: up to 32GB MicroSD OS Nexus 7: 4.2.2 ----- Sero Pro 7: 4.2.1 OS Update Checks: Both have this feature but Nexus 7 seems to pull from Google, Sero pulls from Hisense --- Both devices said they were to date. Processor: Both devices: Tegra 3 Quad Core Size: Nexus 7 is slightly smaller and shorter. but not by much Weight: Nexus 7 seems to be slightly lighter. but not by much Thickness: Nexus 7 looks a little thinner.. But maybe by 1mm. It's the bezel that makes it look thinner Back Cover: about the same, Nexus 7 seems to be "softer ?" Construction: When you place the Nexus 7 on a table. it sounds a little sturdier Vibrate on touch: Nexus 7: No ----- Sero Pro 7: Yes On Screen Camera Button: Nexus 7: No ----- Sero Pro 7: Yes. this is a neat feature. --- you can capture an image from anywhere without loading a camera app SAME ON BOTH DEVICES Wifi: 802.11 abg Stereo Speakers GPS NFC Google Play Speed: both devices did every graphic test I push at them without issue Cost: Nexus 7: $249 Hisense Pro 7: $149 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:364327 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
